The adventure continues to Koh Poda, an island adorned with towering limestone cliffs and immaculate white-sand beaches. After a refreshing swim, replenish your energy with a delightful Thai mini buffet lunch served right on the beach while soaking up panoramic views. The grand finale awaits at the legendary Phra Nang Cave Beach on the Railay peninsula. Explore the sacred Princess Cave and stroll along one of Thailand's most celebrated beaches. Following this, a brief stop is made at the west side of Railay to transfer other guests before sailing back to the pier.

What to remember

Accessibility:

The entrance fee to 'Hat Noppharat Thara – Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park' is not included and to be paid on-site in cash (200 THB per adult and 100 THB per child)

Know in advance:

Longtail boats navigate close to the shoreline, allowing passengers a convenient and effortless transition to the beach
Ensuring your safety is top priority. It's strongly recommended wearing a life jacket throughout the entire boat ride to the islands and while snorkelling
During certain seasons, jellyfish may be present in the Andaman Sea, and contact can cause skin irritation or discomfort. To minimize the risk, it's recommended wearing protective clothing such as water shoes and long swimwear
While flip-flops are convenient, water shoes offer better protection against sharp objects like shells or rocks on the sand, and provide improved traction on wet surfaces
Shorts are ideal as they dry quickly and allow for greater freedom of movement, especially if the water level reaches above your knees when getting on or off the boat

Remember to bring:

A towel, waterproof bag, swimwear, sunscreen, sun hat, sunglasses, flip-flops and a camera
