The Seanery Phuket cruise is a large luxury boat that spends an afternoon and evening in Phang Nga Bay: swimming and water toys at Naka Island, kayaking at Hong Island, James Bond Island in the late-afternoon light, then dinner at sunset and a DJ party on deck on the way back. It is one of the most popular James Bond Island trips from Phuket for couples, friends and groups who want a relaxed, social day rather than a rushed island-hop.

What to expect
Pickup starts from about 09:30 depending on your area (see the transfer table below). The boat departs from the Ao Por side of Phuket at around 11:00 and carries up to 70 guests.
- Naka Island: first stop for swimming and the boat’s water toys.
- Lunch on board as you cruise north into Phang Nga Bay.
- Hong Island: canoe through sea caves into hidden lagoons ringed by cliffs.
- James Bond Island: walk the small beach and see the famous needle-shaped rock of Koh Tapu.
- Sunset dinner on the return cruise, then from about 18:30 the DJ starts and the deck becomes a party.
The exact order and timing can change with tide and weather.
Who it suits
The minimum age is 8 years, so this is not a trip for young children. It suits adults and older children who enjoy swimming, a lively atmosphere and a long day on the water. The boat operates six days a week (not Tuesdays; see the schedule below).
Pickup
Pickup is free from all the Phuket areas listed in the transfer table, including Patong, Kata, Karon, Rawai, Phuket Town, Kamala, Surin, Bang Tao, Laguna and the airport area. Your exact pickup time is confirmed after booking.
What to bring
- Swimwear, a change of clothes and something warmer for the evening breeze
- Reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat
- A dry bag for your phone
- Some cash for drinks at the bar and personal spending
- Your booking voucher and a copy of your passport
Tips from our team
- Book early. This trip often sells out weeks ahead, especially from December to April.
- The late-afternoon schedule means James Bond Island is calmer than in the middle of the day.
- Bring a light layer; it can feel cool on deck after sunset.
- From May to October the bay is generally sheltered, but tours can still be changed for weather.
