Description

If you’re looking for a smooth, relaxed way to explore the Similan Islands, the Lazy Similan Day Trip by Speed Catamaran is just right. This tour is all about enjoying the journey. No rush or early pickups, just stunning views, crystal-clear water, and plenty of time to snorkel, swim, and chill.

Start your day from our private pier in Tuplamu (Khao Lak) and cruise out on a comfortable speed catamaran. A more stable and spacious boat that makes the ride smoother than speedboats, especially for families or those prone to seasickness. You’ll visit the iconic Sailing Rock on Island No.8 (Koh Similan), snorkel at Christmas Point or Namchai Bay on Island No.9 (Koh Ba Ngu), enjoy a beachside lunch on Island No.4 (Koh Miang), and stop for a second snorkel near Island No.5 and No.6.

It takes about 70-80 minutes to get to the Similan islands.The first stop is Island No.8 (Koh Similan), where you can relax on the beach, take a walk, or hike up to the famous Sailing Rock viewpoint.

Lunch is served on Island No.4 (Koh Miang) at the peaceful Princess Bay, followed by time to relax or explore. Then it’s off to your second snorkeling session near Islands No.5 and No.6, where you’ll find even more vibrant marine life.

Itinerary

Our driver will pick you up from your hotel in Phuket or Khao Lak. We'll send you a more accurate pickup time once the booking is confirmed. By air-conditioned minivan we make our way to the private pier close to Khao Lak.

At the pier, you will be welcomed with hot drinks (tea, coffee) and bakery to enjoy a light breakfast. After a brief introduction and fitting of the snorkeling gear, it's time to head to the Similan islands!

We board the speed catamaran and sail towards the Similan Islands. The trip takes around 1 hour and 20 minutes in normal sea conditions.

Arrive at Island No. 8 (Koh Similan). Here you can visit Sailing Rock by climbing up to the viewpoint or relax on the beach.

We then head over to Island No. 9 (Koh Ba Ngu) for your first snorkeling session at Christmas Point or Namchai Bay. Enjoy the beautiful underwater life here. You might even see a turtle!

Our next stop is Island No. 4 (Koh Miang). Here you can enjoy a tasty Thai lunch buffet with many different options (halal and vegetarian included). Afterwards you can relax at Princess Bay.

After lunch it's time for the second snorkeling session around Islands No. 5 and 6, known for their rich marine life and coral gardens.

At the end of the afternoon, it's time to board the speed catamaran again for the return trip to Phuket. We depart from the Similan Islands and arrive in Phuket around 90 minutes later.

We arrive at the private pier in Khao Lak. Here you can enjoy snacks and ice cream before the transfer back to your hotel. You should be back in your hotel between 19:00-19:30. The lazy speed catamaran with late departure to the Similan islands ends here!

Faq

As we leave early, you can expect a light breakfast at the pier. There is no need to have breakfast at your hotel. We serve hot drinks and bakery foods. For lunch you can expect a delicious Thai style lunch box, serveed on the beach at Koh Miang (Island 4). At the end of the tour, you can enjoy a variety of drinks, snacks, tasty papaya salad, fried chicken and ice cream. We'll make sure you are well taken care of!

The Similan Islands close every year for day trips between 15 May - 15 October. This is because the seas are generally too rough to make it a safe trip. Also, the environment has a chance to recover from day trips during high season. Which keeps the Similan Islands beautiful and accessible every year. You can book our Similan Island tours between 15 October - 15 May.

The best time to visit the Similan Islands from Phuket is during the dry season, which typically runs from November to April. During these months, the weather is generally sunny with clear skies, calm seas, and mild temperatures. That makes it ideal for outdoor activities like swimming, snorkeling, and beach hopping.

The Lazy Similan islands tour from Phuket is not suitable for pregnant women, persons over 65 years old and children under 1 year old. If you are in reasonably good condition, the speedboat trip should be fine for you. Please keep in mind that it takes almost 2 hours to reach the Similan islands. Some kids do better than others, but that is a decision you can best make for your own children.

You can cancel your booking for free up until 24 hours in advance of the tour start date. That means you need to cancel no later than 23:59, 2 days before the tour date. We’ll refund you the deposit or you can choose to use it as an advance to a different booking or tour.

    Not much to say except: paradise. It was that good. I didn’t want to leave the last island.

    Not your usual rush-rush tour, and I loved that. Plenty of time to snorkel, walk on the beach, or just lay down and soak in the sun. The food was fresh and simple. Crew was kind and explained everything clearly. I would do it again in a second.
