About Koh Hey Banana Beach Speedboat or Catamaran Day Tour

Hop aboard a speedboat or catamaran from Phuket for a vibrant day trip to Koh Hey’s Banana Beach — where turquoise waters, rich marine life, and Thai hospitality come together for an unforgettable island escape. This all-inclusive tour offers snorkeling, thrilling water sports, a satisfying buffet lunch, and seamless transfers, making it the perfect half-day adventure away from Phuket’s hustle.

Local Legends & Stories

Locals call Koh Hey ‘Banana Beach’ because the shoreline curves like a crescent banana — though the island’s original Thai name is Koh Reh, meaning ‘Long Island’ for its narrow shape. Fishermen say the waters around it were once a sanctuary for royal grey whales, and local tales speak of glowing jellyfish at dusk — though sightings are rare today.

Must Do Experiences

Snorkel among clownfish and sea fans at Koh Hey’s two curated reef sites
Try parasailing or banana boat rides for a splash of adrenaline
Kayak or swing from the banana swing while soaking in coastal views
Savor authentic Thai buffet lunch with beachfront front-row seats

Hidden Gems

The beach’s quieter western cove offers the best coral visibility and fewer crowds after noon
The beach bar serves locally brewed Singha beer with coconut garnish — a local favorite
Mangrove edges along thenortheast shore host rare hermit crab species and juvenile reef fish

What Makes it Special

Choice-based water sports — guests rotate between parasailing/banana boat or clear kayaking/banana swing per group preference
All-inclusive pricing includes travel insurance, first aid, and land transfers to Layan, Thalang, Nai Yang, and even the airport area
A rare double snorkel site layout means more marine biodiversity in one half-day tour without rushed transitions

Available Facilities

Restrooms Showers Changing Rooms Gift Shop Beachside Cafe Wheelchair Access Ramp Lockers Parking Wi-Fi First Aid Station Beach Umbrellas Sun Loungers

Perfect Timing

When to visit for the best experience

Book the 10:00 departure for calmer seas and fewer tourists — the 08:30 slot can face morning chop near Cap Panwa. Visiting between November and April offers the driest, clearest water conditions, while May–October sees occasional afternoon showers but much smaller crowds and better value pricing.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

Capture the banana-shaped cove at noon when the sun is directly overhead — perfect for drone-safe overhead shots
Use polarized lenses to cut glare and reveal underwater clarity for reef snapshots from the surface
No tripods allowed on the beach — use handheld or GoPro for action shots during parasailing or kayaking

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and traditions

Respect local fishermen by keeping noise levels low near their mooring zones; avoid stepping on coral or touching marine life Tipping is discretionary but appreciated — a small THB 100–200 per guide or crew is customary if service impressed you Remove shoes before entering the beachside cafe or any temporary temple shrine near the upper beach

Special Events & Experiences

Enhanced experiences and seasonal highlights

Monthly full-moon beach dinners run from November to February with live Thai music — inquire at booking for availability
Songkran water festival-themed photo ops (April) with local dancers near the cafe
Peak season December–January means earlier bookings required, but offers limited-time sunset return slots for group bookings of 6+

Important Guidelines & Safety

Essential safety information and guidelines

Life jackets are mandatory for all water sports and kayaking — crew will check fit before departure
Avoid swimming during early morning or dusk; reef currents can strengthen and visibility drop suddenly
Bring reef-safe antihistamine cream — box jellyfish stings and sea urchin spines are rare but possible, and the onboard first aid kit handles minor cases

Visitor Information

Entry Fee

The THB 1,190 starting price is per person for the full package — no hidden fees, but premium departure times (like sunset slot) cost +THB 200. Children under 4 free with sharing seat, ages 5–11 pay 75%. Combo deals with Phuket Old Town tours available for THB 1,990

Visit Duration

The tour runs 9 hours end-to-end but the on-island experience is 4 hours — if pressed for time, prioritize the banana swing, main snorkel site, and lunch, then skip the optional kayak rotation to catch the 14:00 return transfer

Accessibility

Ramps and wide pathways connect pier drop-off to the beach area, but mobility on the sand to snorkel pontoons is limited — beach wheelchairs available on request with 24hr notice No elevator access needed as the beach is flat, but shallow-water transfers may require step-up assistance for guests with mobility aids

Overview

Escape the crowded beaches of Phuket and book a day tour that will take you to the peaceful island of Koh Reh. Kick off the experience with a convenient and comfortable pick up service from the pier. After meeting your friendly and professional guide, you're off for a relaxing experience across the sea! Discover many unique aquatic species when you snorkel through the crystal clear waters of Koh Hey. Swim among colorful fishes and corals such as clownfishes, sea fans, sea horses, and more! You'll also have an authentic Thai lunch buffet as you admire the surrounding beauty of Banana Beach. Make sure not to miss out on the famous green papaya salad and more! Charge your camera and snap Instagram-worthy photos of the pristine white sand of Banana Beach. Finally, wrap up the experience with a breathtaking view of the sunset as you sail back to the pier.

Frequently Asked Questions

The tour includes pier transfers, speedboat or catamaran transport, snorkeling equipment, a professional guide, and a Thai lunch buffet at Banana Beach.

The full-day excursion generally lasts between six and eight hours, encompassing the pier transfers, snorkeling sessions, and beach time.

Snorkelers can expect to see colorful coral reefs and various aquatic species, including clownfish, sea fans, and seahorses in the clear waters.

The tour departs from a designated pier in Phuket, and guests are met by their guide before boarding the speedboat or catamaran.

The tour is suitable for families and non-swimmers, as life jackets are provided for snorkeling and the catamaran option offers a stable ride for those prone to seasickness.

The tour is not wheelchair accessible due to the steep stairs at the pier, the lack of ramps on the boats, and the uneven sandy terrain at Banana Beach.

The best time to visit is during the dry season from November to April, when the Andaman Sea is calm and underwater visibility is at its highest.

You should bring swimwear, a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses, and a waterproof camera for taking photos on the beach and in the water.

The tour operator will cancel or reschedule the trip if sea conditions are deemed unsafe by local maritime authorities, and guests will be offered an alternative date or a full refund.

Visitors must not touch or stand on the coral reefs while snorkeling, and feeding the marine life or removing any shells from the beach is strictly prohibited.
