Enjoy an 6-hour excursion to the 4 Islands just off the coast from Ao Nang. During the trip you will make 7 stops at Phra Nang Cave Beach, Koh Tan Ming, Koh Si, Tup Islets, Chicken Island, Poda Island and a plankton stop near Railay.

Following a pick-up in the early afternoon from locations in Krabi, Ao Nang, and Railay Beach, this tour to the 4 Islands area offers a similar itinerary to the morning departure, but with the opportunity to watch a spectacular sunset out at sea, and the chance of swimming and snorkeling with luminescent plankton.

The first stop is Phra Nang Cave Beach on the southernmost tip of the Railay peninsula. You can visit the famous “Phallus Shrine” in a cave which is famous for its wonderful stalactites and stalagmites. Since ancient times, Phra Nang (Princess) Cave has been where fishermen, before going out to sea, have made offerings to the symbolic Phallus of Shiva. Then it’s time to head out to the islands, where you will swim and snorkel at Koh Tan Ming, the rock island in front of Poda, before heading around the island and over to Koh Si.

This rocky outcrop has many underwater reefs and caves, and tends to offer a bit better snorkeling than on the other island. There have been spotted Blacktip Reef Sharks at this area, but don't worry they are not considered a threat as reed sharks here are are quite small here.

There is a photo opportunity around the head of Chicken Island before the next stop at Tup islets for some beach time and a walk across the spectacular sandbank that connects it to Chicken island at low tide.

The last island stop will be at Koh Poda, where you will enjoy a buffet dinner of Thai food and BBQ skewers. There’s plenty of opportunity for more photographs as you watch the sun go down over the islands. After dark, the crew will entertain you with a fire dancing show under the stars.

Finally, it’s time to head back to the mainland, to the shores off Railay West beach. If you are lucky, you can swim with the harmless phosphorescent plankton. After dropping off passengers in Railay, you will head back to Ao Nang.
