Racha Islands (Raya islands)

Heading south from Phuket, just about 20km away are the Racha Islands: Koh Racha Yai and just under 7km away is Koh Racha Noi.
These islands are known for their white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters with a lot of marine life, making them a popular destination for snorkeling, scuba diving and fishing. But small hiking tours and climbing a viewpoint are also possible. And best of all: They are by far not as crowded as Phi Phi Islands, but offer just as beautiful impressions.

Both islands offer a variety of activities for visitors, including snorkeling, diving, sunbathing and beach relaxation. Most of our prepared day tours in our offer only go as far as this island, since most guests are satisfied with the approx. 2 hour sail. For all those who want to go further to Racha Noi, we are happy to prepare an individual tour program for a day trip or overnight stays.

Koh Racha Noi

Racha Noi offers no infrastructure and is therefore surrounded by some of the best coral reefs in Thailand. A paradise for experienced divers and anglers! It also has some beautiful hidden coves to offer - truly gorgeous anchorages for overnight stays with photogenic scenery at any time of the day.

Koh Racha Yai (Koh Raya Yai)

Koh Racha Yai is the larger of the two islands and home to several small resorts, restaurants, beach bars and a supermarket. Most of the inhabitants of Koh Racha Yai are either farmers, fishermen or working in the tourist trade. That's why life here is very quiet and natural.

In addition to the beautiful, powdery white beaches that are great for snorkeling and diving, the island has some nice areas for a peaceful hike too, with interesting flora and fauna along the way.

The only luxury resort, The Racha on the main beach (Ao Tawan Tok), has a beachfront bar/restaurant for the culinary delights.
