The story
Coral Island, Ko He (spelt Koh Hey locally), lies about 10 km off Phuket, with sandy beaches on its northern and eastern sides and clear water over coral reefs for swimming and snorkelling; the Tourism Authority of Thailand puts the speedboat crossing at 15 to 20 minutes (tourismthailand.org, checked 24 Sep 2026). Banana Beach is a beach on the island run as a day-trip venue: by its own site, boats leave from Chalong Pier and take about 15 minutes, the beach operates daily from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm with the last boat back at 5:30 pm, and its regular day trip includes the return speedboat, a buffet lunch, a beach chair and use of a sea kayak (bananabeachkohhey.com, checked 24 Sep 2026). The operator sells a Banana Beach day pass with the speedboat and lunch for about 6 hours including the hotel transfer. Your captain confirms with the operator whether their day pass carries the beach chair and kayak too.
What it feels like: an easy island day. The crossing is over almost before anyone has found their sunglasses, and then the whole day is one beach: the sand, the water a few steps away, lunch without having to go anywhere for it, and a swim whenever the heat asks for one. Nobody has to keep to a timetable of stops. The children can be in and out of the water all day while the grandparents watch from the sand.
Who this suits, and why: the school-holiday family and families with toddlers, because the boat ride is short and the day stays in one place; the multigenerational group and seniors who want sea and sand without a long crossing; couples and friends who want a lazy day rather than an island-hopping one.
