Surin Islands Excursion from Phuket on a Speed Catamaran

The excursion to the Surin Islands from Phuket on a speed catamaran is an excellent option for those who want to see one of the most beautiful corners of the Andaman Sea, swim among coral reefs, and experience the culture of the Moken sea gypsies. The itinerary includes several snorkeling stops, picturesque bays, a Moken village, lunch in the national park, and relaxation amid the tropical nature of the Surin Islands.

The trip begins in the morning with arrival at the Namkhem Marina private pier. Here, guests register, collect snorkeling equipment, and are offered hot drinks and light pastries.

After this, the group departs for the Surin Islands on a speed catamaran.

Surin Islands and First Snorkeling Stop

Approximately 1.5 hours after departure, the catamaran arrives at the Surin Islands National Park.

The first snorkeling stop will be Chong Kad Bay. In the clear water, you can observe coral reefs and tropical fish, after which the tour continues with a visit to a traditional Moken sea gypsy village.

The Moken are an indigenous people of the Andaman Sea who have traditionally lived on the sea and islands. Visiting the village allows you to see another side of Surin—not only its picturesque beaches and underwater world, but also its local culture.

Lunch on the Surin Islands

After the first part of the tour, it is time for lunch.

At the national park restaurant, guests can enjoy a buffet with a variety of dishes and seasonal Thai fruits. After lunch, you can relax for a while before the next snorkeling stops.

Snorkeling at Bon Bay or Mae Yai Bay

After lunch, the tour continues with a second snorkeling stop.

Depending on conditions, the tour will take place at Bon Bay or Mae Yai Bay. This is another opportunity to swim in the clear waters of the Surin Islands and observe the coral reefs and marine life.

Snorkeling equipment is provided before departure, so you will have everything you need for swimming from the start of the tour.

Pineapple Bay or Turtle Bay

The third snorkeling stop is planned near Pineapple Bay or Turtle Bay.

Here, you can get back in the water to see the coral reefs and colorful fish. Several stops at different bays allow you to see the underwater world of the Surin Islands from different perspectives and spend more time in the sea.

After the third snorkeling stop, the group will return to the pier.

Return to Phuket

Around 15:30, the speed catamaran will leave the Surin Islands and head back to the mainland.

At approximately 17:00, the group will return to the pier. Before returning to the hotel, guests will be served drinks and a light dinner: papaya salad, fried chicken, noodles, and ice cream.

After this, a return transfer to the hotel in Phuket will be arranged.

Who is the Surin Islands excursion suitable for?

The excursion is suitable for those who want to combine a speedboat catamaran trip, snorkeling, island relaxation, and an introduction to the culture of one of Thailand's indigenous peoples. In a single day, you can visit several picturesque bays in the national park, snorkel three times, see a Moken sea gypsy village, and have lunch on the islands.

The trip will be especially appealing to those interested in the underwater world. 

If you are vacationing in Phuket and want to spend a day amid tropical nature, clear waters, and coral reefs, the Surin Islands excursion on a speed catamaran is an excellent option.
