The roar of the outboard cuts through morning humidity as the speedboat slides away from Royal Phuket Marina, the islands ahead like green hulks of limestone rising from cobalt water. Sea spray cools your face; the Andaman breeze pushes the boat forward and the captain points to a ribbon of white sand where the surf laps politely.

History
Phi Phi’s islands are primarily limestone karst formed over millions of years and have supported fishing communities; the area rebuilt and adapted after the 2004 tsunami.
Conservation
Maya Bay and other sites have been seasonally restricted to let reefs and beaches recover; visitors should avoid touching coral and use reef-safe products.

Arrive early for calmer seas
Morning departures generally offer smoother crossings and better visibility for snorkeling compared with afternoon runs.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Protect coral by applying reef-safe sunscreen before boarding and reapplying minimally after snorkeling.
Bring a snug snorkel mask
A well-fitting mask prevents leaks and fogging so you spend more time watching fish than fixing gear.
Prepare for bouncy transfers
If you’re prone to seasickness, take motion-sickness meds at least 30 minutes before departure and sit mid-boat for the smoothest ride.
Snorkel mask (fit before travel)
A properly fitting mask makes snorkeling comfortable and efficient.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects skin and fragile coral ecosystems during long sun exposure.
Water shoes or reef booties
Protect feet when entering from rocky or coral-lined beaches and on slippery boat decks.
summer
Dry bag (10–20L)
Keeps electronics, documents and spare clothing dry during crossings and splashy snorkel stops.
