Day 1: Begin in Phuket
Meet your group and trip leader for the first time in the early afternoon by the harbour. Later, we'll board our catamaran boat and start sailing for the Northern Phuket Islands. Chill on the sundeck and enjoy those ocean views or go for an evening swim as the stars come out. Then it's time for our first group dinner, prepared by our private chef.
Day 2: James Bond Island and Railay Beach
Wake up in paradise and start your day however you like. First up is Khao Phing Kan, aka James Bond Island! Explore the rugged emerald scenery before our next stop, Railay Beach: one of the most beautiful beaches in Thailand. Discover this iconic destination at your own pace - whether you feel like hiking to a local viewpoint or booking yourself in for a massage. Tonight you can join the group for a local dinner and check out the beach bars.
Day 3: Koh Ha Yai
Today we're sailing into seclusion to reach our next paradise, Koh Ha Yai. Now's your chance to soak in the gorgeous scenery, as we glide through turquoise waters and sail past little castaway islands. Kick back on the deck with a good book and go for a swim inside that sunkissed ocean.
Day 4: Koh Phi Phi via Monkey Bay
Named after its little macaque residents, Monkey Bay is a world-class snorkelling site. Get ready to swim among colourful coral reefs and tropical sea life inside that crystal-clear ocean. Then we're sailing to Koh Phi Phi, an island that makes an iconic first impression. Depending on the weather, we'll either spend the evening watching the sunset on a hidden beach or heading into town for some nightlife.
Day 5: Koh Racha Noi
Island-hopping around Thailand is pure magic, and today we'll spend the day floating around the southern coast of Phuket. Choose your adventure, from snorkelling to kayaking and swimming in the ocean surrounded by marine life. Enjoy lunch with a view as we pull up on a quiet beach in Koh Racha Noi: one of Thailand's best-kept secret islands.
Day 6: Koh Yao Yai
Today we're setting sail for Koh Yao Yai. With swirly stretches of white sand and a bright sapphire sea everywhere you turn, this local island will take your breath away. Kick back in a hammock, go snorkelling or explore the nearby fishing village for some authentic food spots.
Day 7: Finish trip in Phuket
Enjoy a scenic morning as we set sail for Phuket, with a swim stop included on the way. Our trip ends upon arrival at the Phuket harbour in the early afternoon.
