Yes — this is one of the most family-friendly tours available from Phuket. The speedboat ride from Chalong Pier to Coral Island takes only 15 minutes, minimising seasickness risk. The island's waters are shallow and calm, ideal for young snorkelers. Children aged 4-11 receive a discounted price of ฿1,150. Infants aged 1-3 travel free. Note: children under 1 year old are not allowed on this tour. Persons over 70 are also not permitted.
Pregnant women, children under 1 year old, and persons over 70 years old are not allowed on this tour. All other ages are welcome, including infants aged 1-3 (free of charge) and seniors up to 70 years old.
Coral Island (Koh Hae) is only 10 km from Phuket and just 15 minutes by speedboat from Chalong Pier. It is the closest island to Phuket, making it ideal for a half-day trip. The short crossing also means minimal seasickness risk compared to longer journeys to destinations like Phi Phi or the Similan Islands.
Coral Island has two long stretches of white-sand beach with vibrant coral reefs just offshore — ideal for snorkeling and fish feeding with your included mask, snorkel, and life jacket. A short walk over the island's hill leads to a secluded cove and quieter beach away from the main crowds. Relax on your included beach chair, snorkel, swim, or simply enjoy the tropical scenery. This tour does not include sea activities (parasailing, scuba diving, banana boat, or sea walking) — for those, see the Coral Island Afternoon Tour with Sea Activities.
No — lunch is not included on the afternoon tour. The tour departs at 12:15-12:30 and returns at 16:00-16:15, so there is no structured meal stop. We recommend eating before your hotel pickup. The Coral Island Full Day Tour (daily departures, from ฿2,050) includes lunch at Hey Restaurant on the island and gives you approximately 5 hours at Coral Island.
Hotel transfers from these areas are FREE: Patong, Karon, Kata, Chalong, Nai Harn, Phuket Town, Rawai, and Tri Trang. Surcharges apply (round-trip, per person, paid in cash on tour day): Bang Tao, Boat Lagoon, Cape Panwa, Kamala, Koh Siray, Laguna, Laem Hin Pier, Royal Phuket Marina, Surin — ฿250 per person; Ao Po, Layan, Mai Khao, Nai Thon, Nai Yang — ฿2,000 private transfer (max 10 passengers).
Both tours have the same timing (12:45-16:00 at the island, Mon/Wed/Sat only from 28 May–31 October) and depart from Chalong Pier. This basic tour (Adults ฿1,350 / Children ฿1,150) includes only snorkeling, beach time, and a beach chair — no extra activities. The Sea Activities version starts from ฿1,950 per person and adds your choice of parasailing, banana boat, scuba diving, or sea walking (pre-paid at booking, nothing extra at the island). Choose the basic tour for a relaxed, budget-friendly beach day; choose the sea activities version if you want thrills.
Hotel pickup is between 10:00 and 12:00 (your exact time confirmed by email 24 hours prior, depending on your hotel's location). The speedboat departs Chalong Pier at 12:15-12:30 and arrives at Coral Island at approximately 12:45. You have from 12:45 to 16:00 at the island — approximately 3 hours 15 minutes. The speedboat returns to Chalong Pier at 16:00-16:15, with hotel drop-off shortly after.

Bought two tours to the islands in September 2026. Both were very well organized and perfectly match description on the company website. Pickup and delivery back to the hotel were on time.
It is the cheapest travel agency which operates smoothly and at half price than others around Phuket. We went on 2 tours with them and there was no problem. They picked up us on time and the tours were absolutely fantastic.
You will not find cheaper tours in Phuket. Don’t waste your time hassling with leaflet merchants that you can easily knock down several hundred baht and still not be cheaper!
I booked Phi Phi Island tour, staff on board were so friendly, helpful and nice. Tour guide Sunny was very informative, great tour, highly recommend.
We had a great long boat tour to James Bond Island via the monkey caves, floating fishing village and canoes! Our guide, Kim, was fantastic. He was really informative, friendly and helpful! I highly recommend the James Bond Island tour and thanks Kim for a great day!
Organised a group of 8 friends and the communication before the tour was excellent. They answered every question quickly. The speedboat tour to Phi Phi and Khai Island was a highlight of our two weeks in Thailand.
Much better prices than a major competitor, I'd advise checking here and comparing prices. Be aware they have fewer tours available.
Read moreWe took different tours with this company. Everything was excellent. On time, professional staff, awesome places, Whatapp number for any enquiry . Also in their website you can pay in different currencies. Well done
Read moreThe itinerary was organised perfectly, the staff were kind and made you feel included. As a solo traveller, I went out to Phi Phi island and the English speaking tour guide (his name was Guang) and felt very looked after and welcomed.
Read moreJust a fantastic James Bond day tour, well organized. Lots of good activities but just the right amount of time at each location to enjoy. Easy to interact with too on WhatsApp or via email or phone. Just the best to arrange a trip in Phuket. Great value too!
Read moreWe want to thank Phuket Tours Direct for this unbelievable and beautiful experience to James Bond Island. Never we've seen so much astonishing nature. Thailand is the most beautiful country we've seen during our holidays! Everything was perfectly organised on board of the speedboat with drinks and snacks. We also received transportation with a small touringcar from our hotel in Patong which was included in the price. Perfect service!
Read moreUnforgetable adventure trip with super rafting, elephants and more with our very nice and lovely guide Adi who does everything to feel comfortable and a wonderful delicious lunch For vegetarians - thank you Adi
Read moreWe booked our trip to Phang Nga online at Phuket Torus Direct. The booking process was flawless and the driver showed up as promised. I can really recommend the company.
Read moreEverything was arranged perfectly. Hotel pickup was on time, the guide was knowledgeable, and Maya Bay was absolutely stunning. Booked the early bird tour and it was worth every baht — barely anyone else there when we arrived.
Read moreWe travelled with two young kids and a grandmother. The cruise boat was the right call — calm, spacious, and the staff were so helpful with the little ones. Will definitely book again on our next trip to Phuket.
Read moreBest tour we did in Thailand. The catamaran was comfortable and stable — no seasickness at all. Pileh Lagoon looked exactly like the photos. Booking was easy and the price was the lowest I found anywhere online.
Read moreIt was the best trip ever, could not recommend a day trip to the Similan Islands highly enough. Fee and his team were impeccable, always going over and above for you. We could not fault anything during the whole trip.
Honest, no-middleman pricing. I compared three other agencies and Phuket Tours Direct was consistently cheaper for the same tours. The James Bond + Phi Phi combo was a full day but incredible value — two iconic locations in one trip.
Read moreReally good experience overall. The guide was funny and spoke excellent English. Phi Phi Don at lunchtime was a bit crowded but that's the same for every tour. Would choose the early bird next time to beat the crowds at Maya Bay.
