The morning opens on a cool Phuket pier: teak docks creak underfoot, a crew checks engines, and the sea glints as the speed boat slips away toward twin islands that rise like limestone guardians. Passengers feel the spray and the boat's push as the shoreline of Phuket shrinks and the horizon widens.

History
Phi Phi’s karst islands are formed from limestone uplift and erosion; the islands supported fishing communities for generations and surged in tourism after high-profile film exposure.
Conservation
Maya Bay and sections of Phi Phi have been periodically closed to regenerate reefs and shorelines; visitors should use reef-safe sunscreen, avoid touching coral, and follow local guidance to minimize impact.

Bring cash for lunch and tips

Use reef-safe sunscreen

Prepare for motion sickness
If you’re prone to seasickness, take preventive meds or acupressure bands before departure; the speed boat can hit chop between islands.
