Snorkeling Phi Phi Islands & 4 Islands from Krabi: Early boatAn early-morning snorkeling tour from Krabi visits Maya Bay, Phi Phi Leh, Bamboo Island and the four-island group (Chicken Island, Thale Waek sandbar, Koh Tup and Koh Poda) on a 40-seat speedboat with a professional English-speaking guide. Hotel pickup starts as early as 6am, and the boat departs at 7am to reach the islands before the afternoon crowds. The tour includes snorkeling equipment, a Thai buffet lunch at Phi Phi Arida restaurant, drinking water, seasonal fruit, life jackets and basic accident insurance. Maya Bay closes every August and September for marine park restoration.Is it for me?This is a shared group tour on a speedboat, so you're traveling with up to 40 other people and following a fixed itinerary and schedule. The early 7am departure is what beats the afternoon crowds at Maya Bay and the coral reefs — if you want the islands less packed and the snorkeling less chaotic, the early start is the trade-off that makes it possible. Children from age 3 are welcome, though the boat ride and snorkeling require comfort in the water and the ability to wear a life jacket for extended periods.
Phiphi, Maya & Bamboo Islands Day Trip by Speedboat KrabiYou’ll speed across turquoise waters from Krabi with a local guide, stopping near Maya Bay for photos and snorkeling at Pi Leh Bay’s cliffs. Meet wild monkeys at Monkey Beach (they’re less interested in you than you think), then eat lunch right on Bamboo Island’s soft sand before exploring Viking Cave by boat. Expect laughter, salty air, and moments you’ll remember longer than you expect.
Krabi: Phi Phi, Maya Bay & Bamboo Island Speedboat TourYou're picked up from your hotel and taken by speedboat to four stops: Maya Bay (the famous beach, 50 minutes on shore), snorkeling at Phi Phi Leh's coral reefs, a pass by Viking Cave and Monkey Beach, Thai lunch on Phi Phi Don, and Bamboo Island for a final snorkel in shallow, clear water. The tour includes all snorkeling equipment, life jacket, guide, and lunch; the boat ride is smooth and the group stays small. Book early if you're traveling in July or earlier, since the marine park closes in August and September.Is it for me?Choose this tour if you want to see Maya Bay and snorkel the Phi Phi reefs in one day without arranging your own boat, timing multiple stops, or figuring out which islands have the best coral—the fixed itinerary and small-group format handle all three, and the pickup from your hotel means you don't need to navigate to the pier yourself.
