Ko Racha Yai

Beautiful place to spend your day at the beach. With resorts nearby, you can even do an all nighter though the resorts can tend to be somewhat expensive. However, the waters here are crystal clear and if you bring your gogs you might be lucky to see a fish or two swimming with you. There are other activities that you can spend on at the beach here like snorkelling and scuba diving. If you are with a tour group your snorkelling will be free though flipper ls are an extra cost of 100 baht. Scuba diving costs 1500 baht and even if you are not licensed, you can go scuba diving here for upto 10 meters below the sea to look at the coral reefs, old cement structures and various fishes in the sea.

This island is post card pretty. This was one of the destinations on our day trip from Phuket. Whilst it took a long time to get there (we were on a catamaran) it was very much worth it. The water was just beautiful. The snorkeling was just ok, plenty of fish but the coral didn't look the healthiest to me (grey or brown colour). However, the water was clean and clear and at the time we visited very calm. We had to use a long boat to transfer to the island. The island has a few shops, bars and restaurants which were busy given the day trippers. However, whilst it was busy, the island was tranquil and peaceful. I would have liked to have stayed here for a few nights.

The color of water will take your breath away. Blue and crystal clear. This place is not too far from Phuket. It is cool for snorkeling and scuba diving. You don’t need certification or experience for scuba diving, there are staffs who will assist you during the dive. Snorkeling 🤿 is awesome, the coral 🪸 are so beautiful. Variety of fish 🐠 . Try to feel the water , it is so soft and relax. There is a tiny view point, you can go up there and take picture. It is peaceful up there and be careful of coconuts falling while you are sunbathing 😜
