Similan Islands Luxury Catamaran Day Tour (Phuket / Khao Lak)
Activity provider: Seven Plus Travel

This 14-hour Similan Islands day trip runs on a double-deck catamaran rather than a standard speedboat, with round-trip hotel pickup across Phuket and departure via Thap Lamu Pier near Khao Lak. The itinerary lists a stop at Similan Island to climb Sail Rock for the island panorama, a Thai buffet lunch on board, then two further snorkelling stops at Payu and Bangu islands before heading back to the pier for a final round of snacks.
National park entrance fees, an English-speaking crew, snorkelling gear (mask, snorkel and disposable mouthpiece), socks and a beach towel are included, along with breakfast, lunch and a light dinner — three onboard meals rather than the single packed lunch typical of speedboat trips. A photographer travels with the group and takes photos during the island stop, per the listing. Group size is capped at 15 people, and English and Thai are the languages spoken on board.
Watch out: the meeting point details say this option doesn’t include hotel transfer and asks guests to check in at Thap Lamu Pier by 8:20am, while the inclusions list round-trip hotel pickup across Phuket as standard. Confirm which applies to your specific booking before the pickup morning.
