Description

Set off on a scenic speedboat tour around Koh Phi Phi to Maya Bay, Pileh Lagoon, and Monkey Beach. Enjoy snorkeling, sunset views, and a swim with glowing plankton.
Experience the beauty of Koh Phi Phi on this scenic half-day speedboat tour featuring Maya Bay, sunset views, and a chance to swim with glowing plankton. With a well-paced itinerary and multiple highlights, this tour is perfect for those who want to make the most of their time without feeling rushed.

The adventure begins with a visit to Monkey Beach, where you might spot monkeys roaming freely along the shore or climbing in the trees. It's a charming and often surprising start to the journey. From there, head to Shark Point, where you may spot blacktip reef sharks among the marine life in the clear, shallow waters.

Next, cruise past Viking Cave, an important site for local birdnest collectors, before reaching a top snorkeling location. Here, you'll have time to explore colorful coral gardens and swim among tropical fish.

The journey continues to Pileh Lagoon, a calm emerald pool surrounded by steep limestone cliffs. This picturesque spot is ideal for swimming or simply floating in peaceful surroundings, with dramatic cliffs rising all around you.

After a short ride, you’ll reach the iconic Maya Bay — the crown jewel of Phi Phi Leh. Walk across the wooden path from Loh Samah Bay and step onto the soft white sand, taking time to admire the breathtaking scenery made famous by the film The Beach. It’s one of Thailand’s most photographed spots, and seeing it in person is a must.

As the sun begins to set, enjoy the stunning views as the sky turns golden over the Andaman Sea. It’s a peaceful and memorable moment to reflect on the day. Before returning to the pier, the final stop offers a short swim in the plankton area. If conditions are right, you might witness the gentle glow of bioluminescent plankton; a quiet and unique way to close the experience.

This half-day tour is ideal for travelers who want a taste of Phi Phi’s most beautiful locations, blending sightseeing, snorkeling, swimming, and sunset into one unforgettable journey.
