10 out of 10 must do for a great day out - Fantastic day trip longtail boat to Coral Island.
We had Patty as our guide and she was awesome. Smooth pickup from our hotel and then onto the best longtail boat I have seen. The crew on board were also great, they all looked after us very well helping make sure we were safe at all times and with providing refreshments and fruit.
We went snorkelling saw some amazing fish and Coral, then to banana beach for drinks and swimming. We then went to Coral Island for a beautiful lunch, more drinks and swimming crystal clear water. Smooth ride there and back. Dropped back safely to our hotel.
Would highly recommend for a private experience and not far from Patong leaving from Rawai beach.

fun and enjoyable review! would book again - The tour guide Nat was great! Very funny and great photographer. We felt like our experience was 10/10 and the tour was great value. The snorkeling was good/ok. I think if the weather was more corporative the snorkeling would have been phenomenal. the coral itself looked pretty healthy and there was good variety of fish. the water was clear. we were the first and only boat for a good 20-30 minutes. trying to coordinate all of this on our own would be possible but would not be nearly as enjoyable. a ride to the long tail, negotiating the boat, getting to the snorkel sites, knowing the water conditions, all of that would have been challenging at best. I would book again because of how stress free and fun the tour was. When we got to Banana Beach it could have been stressful if we navigated the situation on our own. Nat was able to make it very painless. It’s not worth describing in detail but I know if I had to navigate the same scenario without Nat it would not be as stress free.

An Unforgettable Family Experience in Paradise - We had the most unforgettable day on our long-tail boat trip to Banana Beach and Coral Island. Traveling with little ones (ages 4 and 2) can sometimes feel overwhelming, but our guide Patty went above and beyond to make everything smooth, comfortable, and truly enjoyable. She took care of all the food, drinks, and payments so we could simply relax and soak in the experience.
Our children loved playing on the beautiful beach while we enjoyed the stress-free day as a family. The highlight was having so many wonderful photos taken of us all together memories we’ll treasure forever. It was completely hassle-free and worth every cent.
Highly recommend this experience, especially for families. Thank you Patty for making it so special!

A memorable day trip not to be missed in Phuket - We had an incredible day with our guide Bessica! From start to finish we had a lovely time and learnt so much about Thailand. Coral Island Beach was stunning, the water was so turquoise and we were grateful to be with Bessica for photo opportunities. We enjoyed a delicious seafood lunch with him which was fresh and unlike any other seafood we had on our trip. We would highly recommend this trip. Thanks again Bessica for an amazing day. We will be back next year ❤️

Not worth the money. Better trips for a lot less out there. - Bessica did his best to add value to this trip. However, this trip was definitely not worth the money. It was basically a ride to the beach. You stay on one island the whole day and there is not really any snorkeling to be done. The snorkeling might exist if you swim a km. Or 1/2 mile out. Most expensive trip we booked and offered the least. I recommend you book one of the other trips at 1/4 tue price. Loved the beach itself and the guide. Hated the feeling of being ripped off.
