Phuket is a wonderful tourist destination in Thailand, the most scenic landscape that is perfect for a variety of island boat tours. Phuket boat trips by using a traditional long-haired boat or motor boat will allow you to discover clean waters, stunning islands and many other local attractions. Here are some of the most exciting day trips to Phuket:
Phi Phi Islands
One of the most enjoyable day trips is sure to include a stop on the Phi Phi Islands. This island is only 50-60 minutes away from Phuket, and it combines limestone karstic formations with the stunning view of the jade-green sea. Despite the fact that the Phi Phi Isles have a perfect picture landscape, this is not the best place for those looking for separation because they are extremely popular with daily attendants. Some of the great attractions include Koh Phi Phi Don and Maya Bay in Koh Phi Phi Ley. However, crystal clear waters are visited by these islands as a great choice for snorkeling enthusiasts.
Cheow Larn Lake
Khao Sok National Park is about 150 km from Phuket and rich, lush green rainforests, towering limestone peaks, waterfalls and deep blue lakes. This nature park includes not only natural beauty, but also participation in various activities, such as jungle trekking, exploration of bat caves, and kayaking on the River Many. Also, most of the park is to visit the artificial Cheow Lan Lake with its luxurious tent camps and floating raft houses. In this region of Thailand it may be quite wet in the rainy season, so it is much more convenient to travel between December and April for a comfortable and dry time.
Coral Island
Coral Island is a popular sunset destination just 6km from Phuket's mainland and loved by beach-lovers and snorkellers for soft white sand and coral . Snorkeling offers the opportunity to view various kinds of tropical fish such as trumpet fish, butterfly fish and parrot fish. The island's two most important beaches are the easiest to reach on Long Beach, while Banana Beach is another option, but it takes a 15-minute ride to the jungle. Popular activities include relaxation and beach massage, banana cruising, kayaking and sailing.
Racha Islands
The white sand and clear waters of the Racha Island attract a many day outing. The Racha Islands are about 12 km from Phuket Town and easily accessible by boat within 45-60 minutes. Siam is the quietest island, while Racha Yai (Big Racha) is the one who gets the most attention and popularity of swimming and snorkeling.
