Via the meeting point Chalong Pier

This is where your day on the water begins, and that's precisely the point. From here, boats depart for Phang Nga Bay, the Racha and Coral Islands, and snorkeling spots off Phuket's south coast. It's a starting point, not a tourist attraction. Nobody comes to see it.

Mornings are bustling with activity. Tour operators, boat crews, and group leaders coordinate the tours, and those who have booked in advance usually find their group without any problems. Those who arrive without a booking can speak directly with the providers, but the offerings and prices vary considerably depending on the day and the person you speak to. My tip: Book in advance with an established company. This makes planning much easier.

    Tips for visiting the transport sector

    Always photograph any existing damage to the scooter before setting off and keep your passport safe – hand over a copy instead (some shops insist on the original; avoid these). Wear a helmet; the police will fine you 500 THB for not wearing one, and accidents without a helmet will result in the loss of your insurance coverage.
