Board a speedboat at Ton Sai Pier and spend six hours exploring Phi Phi’s most famous bays — swim in Pileh Lagoon, peer into Viking Cave, snorkel Shark Point and end with a sunset cruise back to Phi Phi Don. Practical, scenic and paced for swimmers of basic ability.

The engine thumps as the speedboat slides away from Ton Sai Pier and the cliffs of Phi Phi rise like carved walls from the Andaman Sea. Salt spray primes your senses; limestone spires frame turquoise bowls where sunlight cuts into the water. Over the next six hours you’ll hop between iconic bays — Monkey Beach, Viking Cave, Pileh Lagoon, Loh Samah and Maya Bay — pacing swims and short strolls with a sunset cruise back to Phi Phi Don.
