Highlights

Highlights

  • 01

    Pileh Lagoon

    an emerald lagoon enclosed by cliffs — great for swimming and kayaking

  • 02

    Maya Bay

    the most famous bay; the national park limits visitor numbers, does not allow swimming and closes it for recovery for part of each year

  • 03

    Viking Cave

    viewed from the boat — home to swiftlet nests

  • 04

    Bamboo Island

    white sand and shallow water, ideal for snorkelling and relaxing

Tips from our team

  • Leave early (before 9am) to reach the best bays before the big tour boats
  • National park fees are paid per person at cost — we confirm the total before you book
  • In the monsoon (May–Oct) seas can be rough; we will suggest a safer alternative route if needed
  • Check the national park’s Maya Bay opening notice before your trip date

FAQ

Is a Phi Phi charter a full day?

Usually yes — 7–8 hours. A fast speedboat gives you time for more stops.

Can I swim at Maya Bay?

No. The national park only allows viewing from the beach and boardwalk, but you can swim at Pileh Lagoon and Bamboo Island.

Can I go to Phi Phi in the rainy season?

Yes on good-weather days, but sea conditions are checked daily. We will suggest another route if it is not safe.
