Highlights
  • Ko Racha Yai - Your driver will pick you up from selected beaches at around 7:30 am and will head down to the southern harbour of Phuket where the fishing boat and its crew await your arrival. This will be the start of a wonderful experience and one you’ll never forget – a day out at sea game fishing and trolling. You require no experience whatsoever to take part of seeking out the marine life around Phuket. We operate from fully-equipped fishing boats out to the islands on which you can take a day fishing trip in the Andaman Sea.

As one of the world’s top fishing destinations, Phuket offers exciting opportunities to experience the thrill of fishing game in a tropical paradise. You will be with your highly experienced captain and crew as you cruise the waters off Phuket, to the established areas where game fish are caught on a regular basis. The best spots for fishing is around the Racha Islands (20 kilometres from Phuket mainland), that offer a great variety of beautiful coral reefs and fish that never fail to excite visitors who are interested in the intriguing life of the marine.

Once sailing out, the crew will explain in detail how to use the equipment and off you go! It is not uncommon that customers regularly catch some amazing fish such as mackerel, billfish, tuna and sailfish. If a full day fishing is not on your wish list, snorkelling equipment can be provided to watch the underwater world from above.

On board, a Thai buffet lunch is served and perhaps the crew may grill your catch of the day. All the fishing equipment and bait are taken care for; all you need to bring are your sea legs a good sense of adventure and sunblock! In the late afternoon, we head back to mainland Phuket and to your booked hotel on Phuket where you will arrive at around 5:30 pm.

Good day although we didnt catch that... - <p>Good day although we didnt catch that much, but thats fishing!<br/> Lunch was very nice all freshly prepared on board by one of the crew.<br/> The guide was ok, but his English was hard to understand, so we missed a lot of what he was saying.<br/> Downside to this trip was the long periods of doing nothing and the boat is pretty slow.<br/> If you want a nice day out then this trip is ideal, but if you are more of a fisherman then this trip may not be for you.</p>
