Catamarans come with cushioned seating, wide open decks, and plenty of room to stretch, nap, or strike a pose.
Why book a Phi Phi catamaran tour?
Plenty of space to spread out
Snorkeling
Lunch, but make it beachy
If you’re picturing a day of smooth sailing, epic island views, and barefoot lunches on the beach—you're on the right track. A Phi Phi island catamaran tour is all about laid-back luxury. You’ll leave the crowds behind as you cruise from Phuket toward iconic spots like Maya Bay, Bamboo Island, and Shark Point while you snorkel, sunbathe, and dine by the beach.
This is the kind of day trip that works whether you're solo, in couple mode, or bringing the whole crew.
Famous for: The Beach (Leonardo DiCaprio, 2000)
Why go: Maya Bay is the crown jewel of the Phi Phi Islands. It’s surrounded by sheer limestone cliffs on three sides, creating a naturally enclosed bay with brilliant turquoise water and incredibly soft white sand. Since reopening under new visitor limits, it’s quieter and more protected than before—perfect for scenic walks, photos, and walking by the shoreline.
Famous for: Unreal emerald-green waters surrounded by cliffs
Why go: This calm, shallow lagoon is Phi Phi’s most peaceful swimming spot. You’ll glide in through a narrow inlet, and suddenly—boom—you’re in a quiet, jade-colored pool surrounded by vertical limestone walls. There’s no beach here, just open water. Ideal for floating, swimming, or just sitting on the edge of the boat in total awe.
Famous for: The island’s main hub and gateway for all tours
Why go: While most people use Phi Phi Don as a launch point for boat trips, it’s worth exploring in its own right. Tonsai Bay is lively with cafés, dive shops, and beach bars, while Laem Tong Beach offers peaceful stretches of sand.
Famous for: Stunning cliffs, lagoons, caves, and Maya Bay
Why go: Phi Phi Leh is uninhabited and part of a protected national park. Most of the show-stopping sights on your tour—like Maya Bay, Pileh Lagoon, and Viking Cave—are found here.
Famous for: Mysterious wall paintings and bird’s nest harvesting
Why go: Set along Phi Phi Leh’s cliffs, Viking Cave is where locals used to harvest edible bird’s nests used in Chinese medicine and for special Chinese delicacies before entry became prohibited. While you can’t enter the cave, boats pause here so you can admire the entrance and hear the stories.
Fun fact: The name comes from old drawings on the cave walls, once mistaken for Viking ships.
Famous for: Shallow sandbars and easy snorkeling
Why go: Though technically part of a different island group between Phuket and Phi Phi, Khai Island is often included in longer tours or combo trips. It's especially great for families or beginner snorkelers thanks to clear, shallow water and soft, sandy shores. You can snorkel right off the beach, and there are shaded areas for relaxing.
Famous for: Wild macaques that live along the shoreline
Why go: Monkey Beach is where you’ll get a close (but respectful!) look at the local crab-eating macaques. They hang out near the rocks, nap in the shade, and sometimes dip their paws in the shallow waters. It’s a great photo opportunity—just be mindful of their space and don’t offer food.
