Phuket is the largest island in Thailand, but there’s so much more to it than sheer size: palm-fringed isles, world-class snorkeling, year-round sunshine, and incredible cuisine. Here are just a few of our reasons why a catamaran tour in Phuket should absolutely be on your (ever-growing) travel bucket list.
The Pristine White-Sand Beaches
Phuket is home to some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, and there are few better ways to see them than an island-hopping catamaran tour. Beach-loving travelers will fall in love instantly with the small isles off the coast of Phuket, whether they’re planning to swim, snorkel, or sunbathe on the perfect white shores. Coral Island and Racha Island are two of the stunning islands you can visit on a luxurious catamaran day tour.
