Coral Island, known locally as Koh Hey, is an absolute paradise only ten kilometers south of Phuket. It’s a beautiful getaway destination, good diving, and snorkeling spots. Snorkeling here is well suited to novice snorkelers and children as you can swim to the shallow reef from the beach. The island is surrounded by coral reefs and has two long stretches of white sand. A short walk over the island's hill leads to a small, quiet cove and an idyllic peaceful beach with crystal clear waters. Enjoy fun water activities on a private island with our professional staff. Try out the exciting banana boat ride with your friends, parasailing, walk on the ocean floor with sea walking, get up close to the marine life with the discover scuba diving. Spend time relaxing on the beach, tanning, reading, swim or kayaking. Coral Island is ideal for a day trip with multiple activities to choose from.

Coral Island

Beautiful island, lovely white sand beach. Could do with more sun beds, but lots of deckchairs available. Decent lunch included. Only problem is if it’s rough (as it was for us, very rough) it is very difficult and dangerous walking along the moving jetty to and from the boat even with help!

Bottomless

20min in advance to let us know that we have to wait 3h longer for the transfer. The time was used for alcoholic cosiness to endure the whole thing. Definitely makes sense, because the trip goes a whole 2.5h instead of the promised 7h. Chang costs 120-160 bat on site, so it is better to stock up beforehand. Lg

Relax only tour

This is a beach visit to relax. Snorkeling is not good in this location and the lunch was below average.

Coral Island snorkeling trip

For a first, transportation is late about an hour. Second. Coral Island snorkeling areas are sand and couple rocks, not a coral reef. Third, island is very nice for chilling, swimming and partying. Speedboat transportation is fast and everything went as expected. For a 37€ price, it was a 3/5 trip.

Awful operator

Allowed us to book & and take our money & then sent an email to say Fully Booked & this was the only day we could do this trip. Should not be able to book if the trip is full, In addition they still took payment & so now we have to wait 3-5 days for a refund.. Jokers! Do not book a trip with this operator!
