This Racha and Coral Island tour from Phuket is a full day out by speedboat to two of the closest islands to Phuket’s south coast. You swim and snorkel at Racha Yai (also called Raya Island), relax on its white-sand bays, then head to Coral Island (Koh Hey) for lunch, beach time and optional water sports. The crossings are short, which makes it a good choice for families and anyone new to boat trips.
