The morning light slices across the Andaman as a low-profile speedboat slips from Chalong; the engine’s wake writes a quick promise toward white sand and blue shallows. On a private charter from Phuket you move with choice — three islands in a day, each with a different marine mood: the sheltered lagoon reefs of Racha Yai, the powder-fine beaches and reef flats of Coral Island (Koh Hae), and the shallow turquoise crescents of Khai islands where water seems to pull you forward.
