The catamaran slips away from Royal Phuket Marina and the morning light chisels the limestone silhouettes of Phi Phi Leh. Salt sprays the rail as the two‑storey speed catamaran cuts a steady 45‑minute corridor across Andaman waters; on deck, passengers trade city noise for gull calls and the hum of an engine that’s taking them to classic bays and reef-studded snorkeling sites.
