Step aboard at Chalong Marina as the harbor loosens its morning grip: teak underfoot, a cool breeze across the bow, and the twin hulls of a 5.5m‑beam catamaran slicing toward limestone needles that rise like old guardians from the Andaman.

Step aboard at Chalong Marina as the harbor loosens its morning grip: teak underfoot, a cool breeze across the bow, and the twin hulls of a 5.5m‑beam catamaran slicing toward limestone needles that rise like old guardians from the Andaman.
This day charter threads two of southern Thailand’s iconic seascapes. Phang Nga’s karst towers are geological pages of uplifted coral and limestone, etched by tides into caves and “hongs” you can kayak into at low tide. Phi Phi’s bays—Maya, Loh Sama, Ton Sai—carry recent cultural history too: mass tourism forced temporary closures and now cautious recovery, so itineraries respect protected zones and controlled landings.
Onboard comforts make the day practical as well as spectacular: sunbathing on the front balcony, shaded saloon, a drinks fridge, onboard Wi‑Fi and a full galley serving a Thai buffet. Stops usually include Monkey Beach for snorkeling, Ton Sai Bay for village access, and Pileh Lagoon for swimming; optional dinghy rides bring you close to James Bond Island and remote caves.
Plan for 4–10 hours on the water with morning pickup; expect gentle to choppy seas depending on season. Snorkeling gear is provided but bring reef‑safe sunscreen, water shoes and a light windlayer. If you’re prone to motion sickness, take meds beforehand and choose a central seat on the catamaran. Carry small cash for local kayak guides and tips, and respect no‑landing signs—these regulations are how the coral and beaches heal.
This charter balances speed and stability: it reaches distant islands at 15 knots while offering roomy decks for socializing, sunning or quiet observation of the bay’s bold limestone silhouettes.
easy.
4–10 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; swimmers should be comfortable in shallow open water for snorkeling.
Typical schedule: hotel pickup ~08:00, boarding at Chalong Marina by 09:00, return mid‑ to late‑afternoon (around 17:00–17:30); exact times depend on itinerary length.
Yes—snorkels and masks are provided onboard; you may bring your own if you prefer a personal fit.
No—basic swimming competency is sufficient; life jackets are available and crew assist with water entries and exits.
Stops are subject to local access rules and weather; Maya Bay has been periodically closed for recovery, so itineraries may adjust to respect conservation measures.
The limestone karsts of Phang Nga formed over millions of years from uplifted coral and sediment; James Bond Island gained global fame after a 1974 film, boosting tourism in the area.
Due to past overuse, authorities limit landings and close fragile spots periodically; follow crew guidance, avoid touching coral, and use reef‑safe products.
