Catamaran cruise
Simply amazing trip. 6am pickup from hotel to boat. Breakfast at the pier so don’t worry about ordering a breakfast box at your hotel. 1.5 hrs across 65km of ocean was super fast :) Islands are amazing, the water is out of a movie almost. Snorkelling was awesome and saw loads of fish and a turtle came to swim with us which was magical. The staff on the boat looking after us were brilliant. This is a must do trip! 11/10
The Similan Islands are untouched jewels in the Andaman Sea and they're what dreams are made of – coral reefs, hideaway beaches and tropical rainforests. You'll take a speed catamaran over first thing to spend the day island hopping, snorkelling and swimming.
Your journey kicks off from Khao Lak, slicing through the ocean with the wind as your soundtrack, as you head straight for the Similan Islands National Marine Park. With the crowds at bay, you'll first dock into Donald Duck Bay. Chill out on the snow-white sandy beach or take the opportunity to climb up Sail Rock for panoramic views.
Then, it's onto Honeymoon Bay. It's snorkel central here, where you can meet everything from cheeky clownfish to majestic manta rays – not to mention the vibrant coral scene. Chill, unwind, and soak up the sun, before heading back on board for a freshly-prepared buffet lunch. "Enjoy one final snorkel or sunbathe session before we make our way back. Get ready for an adventure that flips the script on your average day trip.
