Escape the masses and claim the jewels of the Andaman Sea on this exclusive, private half-day longtail adventure. Departing directly from Koh Phi Phi Don at your preferred morning, midday, or afternoon time slot, this carefully timed charter ensures you experience the serenity of Phi Phi Leh's most treasured sites, often beating the major tour crowds. This is more than a trip; it's your personalized key to the iconic landscapes that define southern Thailand.
Your journey begins at the legendary Maya Bay, the stunning crescent beach immortalized by the movie The Beach. We visit early or late to enjoy its protected beauty before moving into the tranquil embrace of Pi Leh Lagoon. This breathtaking natural pool, enclosed by towering limestone cliffs, offers calm, crystal-clear turquoise waters perfect for a refreshing swim and effortless snorkeling. After navigating this aquatic paradise, we pass by the fascinating Viking Cave, rich in maritime history and local folklore.
Beyond the iconic sights, your private longtail takes you to the best coral-rich snorkeling spots surrounding Phi Phi Leh, where you can easily discover the vibrant underwater ecosystem. The adventure culminates with a stop near Monkey Beach, a famous cove where wild macaques roam freely in their natural habitat—a perfect photo opportunity and a unique wildlife encounter (remembering to keep a respectful distance).
Traveling by a traditional private longtail offers the intimacy and flexibility large group tours simply cannot match. You set the pace, ensuring quality time at each of the "Big Four" destinations. Your charter includes all necessary snorkeling gear, life jackets, fresh water, and fruit, allowing you to focus purely on the stunning scenery. Just bring your towel, cash for the National Park fee, and your camera to capture your personal collection of Phi Phi's most stunning coves.
