What to expect

On this guided day tour you will discover the top attractions of the Phi Phi Island archipelago. The Phi Phi Islands are amongst the most striking in the world, with vivid-coloured limestone cliffs reaching perpendicularly out of emerald-green water, jungle-covered hillsides, white-sand beaches, and idyllic hilltop vistas along with dramatic caves and grottoes.

You will be picked up directly from your hotel on Koh Lanta and meet the boat crew of Opal Travel at Saladan Pier. After a short briefing, it is time to cruise by speedboat to Phi Phi Leh in less than 50 minutes. The first stop is at Viking Cave, where you will slowly pass by the Swiftlets' nests which are harvested by locals. Not far from Viking Cave, make the first snorkel stop in Viking Bay with an artificial reef and natural sloping reef. Cruise further to Pileh Lagoon to sightsee the majestic limestone cliffs surrounding the emerald-green lagoon.

Continue to Loh Samah Bay, where the captain will moore the speedboat at the floating rubber pier so you can easily walk to the other side of Phi Phi Leh famous for its iconic 'The Beach'. Maya Bay is a stunningly beautiful bay that is sheltered by 100-meter-high cliffs on three sides. Inside the bay there are several beaches, most are small and some only exist at low tide. The main one is around 200 meters long with silky soft white sand, underwater colorful coral, and exotic fish in exceptionally clear water. The whole bay is one big reef.

Important to know

Not suitable for:

pregnant women, infants under 2 years, people over 69 years or people with back or neck problems

Not allowed:

don't feed the monkeys as it makes them aggressive and stops them from foraging for food as they would normally do

Extra fees to be paid on-site:

entrance fee for 'Hat Noppharat Thara – Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park': 400 THB per adult and 200 THB per child (these fees are to help park rangers keep the park and wildlife protected and clean so everyone can enjoy the natural beauty)

Know in advance:

speed boats carry passengers as close to the beach as they can so passengers can hop off and on easily
Thailand's Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation will close Maya Bay every year for 2 months in August and September
there is a minimum of 10 people required to run this activity (on the rare occasion that the supplier needs to cancel the trip, they will inform you in advance and offer a different travel date, an alternative activity or provide a full refund)

Remember to bring:

towel, waterproof bag, swimwear, sunscreen, sun hat, sunglasses, flip flops and camera
wear flip flops in case there are shells or rocks on the sand and shorts rather than pants as the water level may be above the knees when hopping off/on the boat
