Tonsai Bay to Ko Lanta

Make the short ocean voyage southeast to Ko Lanta. Ko Lanta has the opposite vibe to lively Tonsai Bay, with a relaxed, quiet atmosphere guaranteed to help you unwind. Visit traditional villages and hike through the rainforest, or enjoy some of Thailand’s best food in the island’s local restaurants. Ko Lanta is a mecca for divers, and if you’re lucky you might spot manta rays and giant whale sharks cruising silently through the clear waters.

Cruise west across the bright, blissful expanse of the Andaman Sea, drifting past Thailand’s many islands on your way to distant Ko Racha Yai. Strewn with beaches and coves perfect for sunbathing, Ko Racha Yai is also a favourite of sport fishermen and divers.

Ko Racha Yai to Ko Naka Noi

Sail north past the island of Phuket, with its countless bays, beaches and small towns beckoning from the shoreline.

You can swim, snorkel and sunbathe at the island’s many beaches, enjoy water sports such as Hobie cat sailing and paddleboarding or try big game fishing to catch that elusive record sailfish.
