Full-Day Racha Noi and Racha Yai Snorkeling from Phuket

This is a full-day version of Phuket’s Racha Islands run, covering both Koh Racha Noi and Koh Racha Yai rather than just one — many shorter trips only reach the closer of the two. The boat moors in sheltered bays at each stop for multiple snorkel sessions, and the trip caters to both snorkelers and divers on the same departure, so it suits mixed groups without splitting them onto separate boats.

The day runs on breakfast, a full lunch, fresh fruit, and drinking water, coffee, tea and carbonated beverages — alcohol is the one drink category left out. Snorkel gear (mask, snorkel and fins) and personal accident insurance are included, along with hotel pickup and drop-off from Patong, Karon, Kata, Chalong, Rawai and Nai Harn; travelers based elsewhere on the island need to arrange transport to one of those pickup points. Confirmation isn’t instant on this one — bookings go through manual confirmation rather than an automatic instant slot.

Groups are capped at 15 people, and the tour isn’t recommended for anyone with spinal injuries, cardiovascular conditions, or during pregnancy, though it’s rated suitable for all other fitness levels. At 4.3 from 57 reviews, it sits mid-range against the shorter Coral Island run also departing Phuket, which trades the second island and full-day pace for a shorter, cheaper trip.

Watch out: Hotel pickup only covers Patong, Karon, Kata, Chalong, Rawai and Nai Harn — travelers staying outside those areas need their own transport to a pickup point, and alcoholic drinks aren’t included in the day’s food and drink package.
