Sail Krabi’s stunning coast on a luxury longtail boat. Cruise past Railay Beach’s towering limestone cliffs, visit Tup and Chicken Islands, then snorkel in crystal-clear waters teeming with marine life. End at Poda Island for relaxation and a light meal (sunset package). Hotel pickup/drop-off included – a serene mix of scenery, swimming, and island magic. (
The towering limestone cliffs of Railay Bay and the vibrant coral gardens of Ko Ma Tang Ming serve as the stage for this 5-hour high-impact maritime expedition.
Provided by local experts via Luxury Longtail Boat, this journey transitions from the bustling Ao Nang shoreline to a more refined, small-group exploration of the Krabi archipelago.
You move from the educational discovery of the "parting sea" sandbar at Tup Island to an active immersion in snorkeling among sea turtles and tropical fish, experiencing an environment where an onboard toilet (a rare luxury for longtails) and a curated beachside meal define the day's energy.
Because this is a premium small-group activity limited to just 16 travelers, you should secure your luxury longtail seat early to ensure a 2026 spot for your intimate island discovery.
Expect a "spectacular," well-paced, and exclusive immersion into Krabi's natural wonders. The transition from the boat to the snorkeling sites is managed by a crew noted for providing a "serene atmosphere," ensuring that the group size remains small enough for personal attention. The environment is one of monumental scenery, where the stability and upgraded amenities of a luxury longtail provide a necessary refresh from the standard, crowded tour boats. Note that for 2026 safety, pregnant travelers and children under 4 are not permitted on this transit.
This vessel includes an onboard toilet, which is a massive vertical standard upgrade for longtail boats in 2026; utilize this feature as most standard longtails require you to wait until the next island stop.
Choose the 07:00 AM launch for a vertical 2026 advantage; arriving at Chicken Island before the midday heat ensures better water clarity and fewer "background tourists" in your 360-degree photos.
Bring exactly 200 THB in cash per adult; the vertical standard of 2026 park entry is strictly cash-only at the boat check-in, and it is a survival necessity for landing on Poda Island.
Sit toward the center of the boat for the smoothest ride; while the front is great for 2026 Instagram content, the vertical standard of longtail travel means the middle offers the most stability during wave transitions.
Be in your hotel lobby 15 minutes before the scheduled 07:00 AM or 01:00 PM pickup; the transition between hotel transfers and the pier is a necessity for a prompt 2026 departure.
The snorkeling visibility and tide events change throughout the 2026 season.
We offer hotel pickup in Ao Nang, Krabi Town, and Klong Muang; Railay Beach guests meet at the East Railay Floating Pier.
A light snack is provided for the morning trip, while a BBQ meal (chicken and corn) is included in the sunset package.
You must have 200 THB (Adult) or 100 THB (Child) in cash for the National Park entry, a 2026 necessity.
Only those 4 years and older are allowed; the tour is not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with back problems.
Yes, masks, snorkels, and life jackets are included for all 16 travelers.
