The Krabi Islands are lesser known than the more famous Phi Phi and James Bond Islands but are equally as spectacular. A trip to the Krabi Islands will allow you to experience a mix of great snorkelling, white sandy beaches, limestone islands and hidden lagoons. During the peak period of travel you will find that these are less crowded and a great day trip location to keep away from the crowds while exploring amazing island destinations and locations. A personal favorite of our crew as it's a good mix of exactly what Phuket and it's surrounding Islands have to offer.

In Thai we call this island Koh Gai, which translates to Chicken Island. As you arrive at this island you will immediately see why it has it's name. The rock formation on the island creates a chicken head. This is a great spot for snorkelling with a wide array of marine life and good quality coral. You can also relax on the white sandy beach.
Railay beach is a unique location with integrated limestone rock formations and white sandy beaches. Enjoy lunch in one of the many local restaurants, explore the mangroves, see the monkeys and more on Railay.

Tour guides were great! Very nice and eager to make sure we were happy. Islands were beautiful. Clean boat, plenty of drinks, and a plate of fruits. We had a real nice time. Bring extra money cash for any national park fees.

From the email request to the transfer back to our hotel, 5 Star Marine went above and beyond. Extremely professional, friendly and knowledgeable, everyone from YaYa our guide, “Captain America” and “Captain Jack Sparrow” our boat crew were fantastic! YaYa knew all of the best places to know and her recommendations for lunch meant we had the best meal in Thailand we’ve ever had! Can’t speak highly enough of 5 Star Marine!

We had the most incredible experience with 5 Star Marine on our private tours to Similan Islands and James Bond Island! Both trips were absolutely amazing—from the smooth planning to the top-notch facilities on the boat. The service was outstanding, and every staff member was friendly, professional, and made us feel completely at home. It honestly felt like we were out at sea with friends rather than on a tour. What made it even more special was the flexibility. We could customise the itinerary while on board, and our guide Yaya was exceptional—she somehow knew exactly what we wanted and tailored the experience perfectly for us. And a bonus—Yaya is an amazing photographer We came back not just with great memories, but with stunning photos too (all taken for us!). Highly recommend 5 Star Marine if you’re looking for a premium, personalised island-hopping experience in Phuket.

We had the best time on our two boat days visiting so many beautiful islands — it was such a highlight of our trip! We actually went on two separate tours and were lucky enough to have the same crew both days, which made it even better. Our tour guide, Ya Ya, was absolutely incredible. She, along with the entire boat crew, went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of the whole time. They were so attentive, constantly checking on us, helping with anything we needed, and making sure everyone felt comfortable and safe. Having the same team both days made the experience feel even more personal — they remembered us, looked out for us, and truly cared about us having an amazing time. The days were so much fun — we hit all the spots we were hoping to see, explored stunning islands, swam in crystal-clear water, and enjoyed every minute from start to finish. Everything was well organized but still relaxed and fun. They also took us to a delicious lunch spot that was the perfect mid-day break — such a great touch! Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and we can’t recommend Ya Ya and the crew enough. They truly made both days so special! 🌊☀️

We had the best experience with 5 Star Marine and honestly can’t recommend them enough. From the moment we booked, everything was super smooth. They were incredibly communicative, responsible, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. When we arrived, the staff immediately made us feel welcome and treated us so kindly all day. The boat was beautiful, spacious, and very well priced for a private tour. Drinks and fresh fruit were included, which was such a nice touch. Everything felt clean, safe, and really well run. The biggest highlight is that the tours are completely customizable, so we got to go exactly where we wanted without feeling rushed or stuck with a big crowd. Huge shoutout to our crew and especially our guide Jimmy, who was amazing. He was knowledgeable, fun, and happy to adjust the day based on whatever we wanted to do. We’ve done larger group tours before, and this was by far the best experience and absolutely worth the money (and honestly not much more than the crowded tours). If you’re debating booking with them, just do it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic trip. We asked to go the more quieter places and was so worth it. Boat was brilliant with water, soft drinks, fruit and a toilet on board as well. Billy our guide or sexy billy as he calls himself was great, so funny and has a really cheeky laugh. He certainly knows his stuff as well. Highly recommended

We (family of 4) took this trip in New Year’s Eve. We had a fantastic day and the boat team were great. Would highly recommend.

Booked a private tour to Phi Phi Islands, but with poor weather our guide adapted an alternative and was really flexible in making our day as good as it could possibly be. Great communication from 5 star marine from booking until tours end. Comfortable and well kitted out boat, and our guide Beer & Crew were fantastic. Quality operator all round.
Thanks for the kind review and recommendation we truly appreciate it - Shaun
Kudos to 5StarMarine and team! It was such a great experience with the crew ( Mrs. Fay our guide, Mr M deck hand , Mr Lek captain). We informed our guide our preferences and Fay and the crew were able to deliver on-point. This is second time we booked trip with 5Stars Marine. You are the reason we keep coming back to Phuket. Hope to see your team again on our next trip! Last we want to thank you Shaun and team for reaching out to us before and after the trip ensure we are happy with the trip.

From the initial enquiry to drop off last night 5 Star Marine were amazing to deal with. Absolute professionals and so accommodating. The crew were fantastic and ensured our trip was so much fun and enjoyable. With their knowledge of tides and crowds they made sure we had the best experience and threw in a few special little stops! Can’t recommend highly enough! It was special for my wife and I as we started our backpacking adventure in Thailand 23 yrs ago and it was great to return share it now with our daughters (20 & 13) and the crew made sure it was very special
