The story

Racha Yai lies just off Phuket's southernmost tip. The Tourism Authority of Thailand describes fine white-sand beaches, a viewpoint on a hill towards the south of the island looking down over its bays, Ao Siam, the longest beach, between horseshoe-shaped hills on the west, and Ao Khon Khae on the east, good for snorkelling round the coral (checked 24 Sep 2026). Coral Island, Ko He in Thai, is about 10 km off the coast, with sandy beaches on its northern and eastern sides, clear water and coral reefs for swimming and snorkelling, and a few resorts and places to eat. Both are listed under Rawai, at Phuket's southern end.

The operator's half-day trip goes to both by speedboat, with lunch. The sheet does not mention snorkelling gear, or name the pier, the order of the islands or the lunch menu; your captain sends the operator's programme for your date.

What it feels like: a beach day more than a sightseeing day. The crossings are short and the time goes on sand and in the water. If you snorkel, the first time you put your face in over a reef and see fish below you is the moment to remember; for non-swimmers, the colour of the water from the beach is reward enough. Coral Island has resorts, places to eat and activities along its beaches; Racha has the long sweep of Ao Siam between its hills.

Who this suits, and why: the school-holiday family and families with teenagers, because the crossings are short and the day is spent on the sand and in the water; honeymooners and couples who want an easy beach day; friends groups on a budget. Toddlers can manage it with a parent in the shallows; non-swimmers should snorkel only with a life jacket.
