About this activity

Visit Banana Beach on Coral Island (Koh He), Phuket's most scenic stretch of sand, via a fast 15–20 minute speedboat ride from Chalong Pier. This 6-hour excursion balances structured exploration with free time, featuring a snorkelling stop, lunch at a beachfront restaurant, and your choice of activities—from kayaking and snorkelling to parasailing and relaxation.

Banana Beach is the most attractive beach on Koy He (Coral Island). Few can compare with its beautiful beach. Its often said how difficult it is to believe that Koh He can be so beautiful. This tour is designed for you to spend most of the day doing whatever you want. Included in this tour is a delicious Set Menu Lunch at the Hornbill Restaurant overlooking the water.

Specific attention has been made to ensure Banana Beach will continue to be Koh He's most beautiful beach. Immediately upon arrival you will notice the behaviour of the fish and the Great Hornbill birds as appreciation for the care taken preserving their island.

Koh He is only 15 or 20 minutes by speedboat from Chalong Pier on Phuket. So, with departure at 10.00am you're there before 10.30!! At the first stop, you won't actually be stepping onto the island. You'll spend about 30minutes here swimming and snorkeling off the boat. Then, back on the speedboat, it is only a few minutes to Banana Beach. Many fun and fantastic activities await you there. If you wish, enjoy parasailing and banana-boat rides (at your own expense) or choose the clear kayaks and snorkeling opportunities (complimentary). Of course, another very tempting option will be to doze off on the soft white sand beside the crystal clear waters and soak up the paradisiacal atmosphere.

This Full Day trip away from the big island of Phuket has been set so that you choose how you want to spend your time in this breathtaking land.

A set menu Lunch is included and will be taken at the nature inspired Hornbill Restaurant which is surrounded by greenery and overlooks the stunning waters. Drinking water and seasonal fresh fruits will also be provided.

You will leave the island at about 4.30pm.
