Phi Phi, Racha, Ko Haa Itinerary G: 4 Days / 5 Nights on board

This itinerary gives our guests a 'pre-season' option before the national parks to the north officially open for the season. As with all M/V Philkade’s trips, departures and arrivals are timed so that there is no need to stay overnight on Phuket Island, though, if you wish to we are able to arrange accommodation. We transfer you on the days of arrival and departure at no additional cost. We always include a full evening meal on the evening of departure to Racha Yai and a full breakfast on the day of departure from M/V Philkade.

This trip gives a full four days diving with up to four dives a day. The dive sites we usually visit include: Racha Noi Plateau, Maritta's Rocks, Ko Haa Yai, Ko Haa Neua, Ko Bida Nok, Losama Bay, Shark Point and the wreck of the King Cruiser. Over the four diving days you can see hard coral reefs, soft coral covered pinnacles, and large boulder sites, and limestone walls. All these are covered with Snapper, Goat Fish, Grouper, Hawksbill Turtles, Anthea, and Damsel Fish. Keep your fingers crossed and you may also be lucky enough to see Manta Rays, Leopard Sharks, schools of Barracuda, Sea Horses, Frog Fish, and many more in these waters.

We encourage all our guests to visit the islands when ever possible between dives (either by tender or kayak), so that you can experience what the islands of Thailand have to offer above, as well as below the water. You could lounge on the beaches of East Coast Bay (Racha Noi), Ko Haa Yai, or Ko Phi Phi Ley. If timings and weather allow there may also be a chance to spend an evening on Ko Phi Phi Don.
