Discover Maya Bay at Dawn: Avoid the Phi Phi Crowds

06.00 am.

Transfer to the Royal Phuket Marina, board the boat, and depart for Phi Phi Island. With start you'll avoid the later crowds in the afternoon   Maya Bay - tide dependent for 1st stop Normally (however it is tide dependent) our first stop, Maya Bay was made famous by the film "the Beach". This is a "must see" for most tourists so it gets very busy, however we usually arrive before everyone else so you can enjoy the bay to yourselves for a while and take a few photographs without the crowds.

10.00 am.

Pileh Lagoon - tide dependent Our next port of call if tide allows is Phileh Lagoon, among the staff (on and off the boats) this is our favorite location on Phi Phi. It is a spectacular emerald green lagoon surrounded by high limestone cliffs on 3 sides, one of the world’s most gorgeous natural swimming pools. This location has become famous for our traditional jump off the front of the boat.
