Experience the best snorkeling off Phuket's southern coast at the top sites of Racha (Raya) and Coral islands. Small enough to circumnavigate by foot, these islands are pleasantly undeveloped, providing a true tranquil escape from the bustle of Phuket. Long white sands and exceptional year-round snorkeling and swimming make it a perfect destination for daytrippers. You'll hop between the two islands, finding your perfect spot to snorkel or relax before heading to shore for a delicious buffet lunch at a beachside restaurant. The emerald waters are home to a wealth of colorful aquatic life, where sightings of vibrant coral, rainbow trout, puffer fish and giant star fish are all on the agenda.
