Overview

Catch the first light over Krabi’s islands on a sunrise speedboat tour combining Phi Phi highlights, Maya Bay, Bamboo Island, and Krabi’s scenic island views. Start at Tup Island as morning light spreads across the sea, with a chance to see Talay Waek appear when tides allow. Continue into Phi Phi for Maya Bay’s limestone cliffs, swimming in Pileh Lagoon, Viking Cave views, wild macaques near Monkey Beach, and lunch with free time on Phi Phi Don. Then head to Bamboo Island for snorkeling, swimming, and relaxing on white sand. On the return, pass Chicken Island and spot its famous chicken-shaped limestone formation. With hotel transfers included, this full-day tour is ideal for travelers who want an easy, well-planned island-hopping experience from Krabi.

What to expect

  1. Tup Island
    1h 30m · Admission ticket included
    Watch sunrise unfold over Tup Island as you relax beside the beach with a warm drink in hand. When low tide allows, Talay Waek may emerge from the clear water, forming a natural sandbar that connects the island with Koh Mor and nearby Chicken Island.
  2. Maya Bay
    1h 30m · Admission ticket not included
    Stroll along Maya Bay’s soft beach and take in the tropical scenery that has made this bay famous worldwide. Clear green water glows beneath the daylight while steep limestone cliffs embrace the coastline, creating beautiful views at every turn.
  3. 1h · Admission ticket not included
    Cool off in the inviting water of Pileh Lagoon, a scenic swimming spot enclosed by steep limestone cliffs. Move through the clear blue-green sea, look below for glimpses of marine life, and soak up the tropical scenery rising around the lagoon.
  4. Viking Cave
    Pass by
    Frame Viking Cave from the boat as its dramatic limestone entrance comes into view along the Phi Phi coastline. Take in the rugged rock formations and snap photos of this famous landmark, also known as a protected nesting area for local swiftlets.
  5. Monkey Beach
    15m · Admission ticket included
    Witness a wilder side of Phi Phi at Monkey Beach, where macaques may be seen roaming near the tropical shoreline. Take in the small sandy bay, thick greenery, and towering limestone backdrop while appreciating the animals from a respectful distance.
  6. Ko Phi Phi Don
    1h 30m
    Spend some free time on Phi Phi Don after enjoying lunch at a local restaurant. Wander around the nearby area, snap a few island photos, browse at your leisure, or slow things down with a restful break before it is time to move on to the next stop.
  7. Bamboo Island
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Step onto Bamboo Island’s beautiful stretch of soft white sand and leave the busier island atmosphere behind for a while. Swim in clear Andaman water, snorkel near coral areas, relax beneath the tropical surroundings, and appreciate the simple beauty of sea, sand, and nature.
  8. Chicken Island
    Pass by
    Look toward Chicken Island as you cruise past its remarkable limestone formation, naturally shaped like the head and neck of a chicken. Rising above the turquoise water, this unusual rock profile gives the island its name and distinctive character.
