Koh Phi Phi Don is the largest and most populated island of the group, although the beaches of the second largest island, Koh Phi Phi Leh, are visited by many people as well. The others are all uninhabited, stunning rock formations that jut themselves out from the sea.
Maya Bay is usually the first stop on this tour. This is a “must see”! And even though boats cannot stop there at present (due to restoration) you will pass by to take photos without the crowds. Simply breathtaking! It will be at this point that you'll realise how beneficial the early morning start was!
Our next port of call is Phileh Lagoon. This location has become famous for the traditional jump off the front of the boat into one of the most beautiful lagoons in the world. If you are less adventurous, you can simply use the steps at the side of the boat to enjoy these beautiful waters.
We have a few locations to choose from for some morning snorkelling, including Viking Cove, Loh Somah Bay, Dragon Lagoon, Straight Rock and Par Dang. Which location is actually visited will depend on the sea conditions, tide and other tour groups on the day. All snorkelling equipment, flippers (fins) floatation aids, swim noodles, etc. will be provided free of charge. The staff are always there (in and out of the water) ready to help any first timer with encouragement, advice or sometimes just a helping hand.
Time to catch up with the locals on Monkey Beach. Everyone loves the monkeys here, but no matter how cute they appears we must remain cautious at all times. They can, and do, bite so we ask everyone to be aware and listen to the tour guides instructions. Respect that they are wild animals. If we all behave in a safe, appropriate manner, the monkeys survival is assured so that future generations of visitors here will be similarly entertained and educated!
For your lunch break you will be taken to Bamboo Island for a buffet lunch direct on the white powdery beach.
After lunch it is time for more snorkelling. Options include Nui Bay (Camel Rock), Mosquito Island, Hin Klan or a spot in front of Bamboo Island. All these places have coral reefs with an abundance of sea life.
Upon arrival back at the marina in Phuket, at about 3.00pm, you will step into you waiting vehicle to be driven back to the hotel.
