Do boat trips run in the rainy season (May – Oct)?

Most boat excursions run all year. On days with strong wind or high waves, the captain or the national park may change the route or cancel the trip for safety. If that happens, our Tour Desk will contact you to rebook or suggest an alternative.

Is hotel pickup included?

Most excursions include pickup from hotels in the main areas, such as Patong, Kata and Karon. Each excursion page shows the pickup areas and times.

What should I bring on a boat day?

Swimwear, a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, a dry bag for your phone, and some cash for drinks or any park fee not included.

Is Phuket good for families with young children?

Yes. Calm beaches and shorter boat trips like Coral Island suit young children. Child prices apply (the age range is on each excursion); just tell us the children's ages when you book.

How do I book, and how far ahead?

Contact our Phuket Tour Desk by email or the contact form. We confirm availability and the final price. Book at least one day ahead, and earlier in December and January.
