About this experience
This Similan Islands day tour is operated by a luxury double-deck catamaran, offering more space, better stability, and a more comfortable ride compared to standard speedboat tours.
The itinerary is designed at a relaxed pace, allowing guests to explore first rather than rush through snorkeling. You’ll enjoy extended free time on Similan Island No. 8, famous for its white-sand beach and Sail Rock viewpoint, followed by snorkeling sessions near Island No. 9 and Island No. 7, selected according to sea conditions for comfort and safety.
Unlike many basic island tours, this experience includes three onboard meals, fruit and soft drinks, snorkeling gear with disposable mouthpieces, towels, and round-trip hotel pickup across Phuket.
A professional onboard photographer accompanies the tour, with up to five complimentary photos per guest provided after the trip, allowing you to focus on the experience while moments are captured naturally.
