Explore Phuket and Beyond in Style

Departing from Phuket’s Boat Lagoon, our twin engine speedboat charters offer an unparalleled way to explore Phuket and its surrounding islands. Powered by two meticulously maintained 250HP engines, these boats are designed for speed, comfort, and safety. Their sleek, covered design ensures protection from the elements, while the spacious front section offers the perfect spot for sunbathing. Onboard, you’ll enjoy fast, comfortable cruising, accompanied by a professional captain, crew, and an English-speaking guide.

Where Can You Go?

Twin engine speedboat charters are ideal for adventure seekers, capable of traveling further and faster than typical day trip charter boats. Popular destinations include the stunning Phang Nga Bay, Hong Krabi, the world-famous Phi Phi Islands, and the scenic Racha and Khai Islands. If you’re looking for a more extended adventure, these boats can reach farther destinations such as Koh Lanta, Koh Haa, or the crystal-clear waters of Koh Rok. During the dry season, day trips to the pristine Similan Islands, famous for their vibrant marine life, are also possible.

For those seeking a multi-day journey, our twin-engine speedboats can take you as far as Koh Lipe and the Tarutao National Park, allowing you to explore even more remote islands. While each day charter lasts 8-10 hours and can include multiple stops, we recommend focusing on a single route to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of each destination.

• A professional captain, deckhand, and English-speaking guide

• Seasonal fruit platters

Why Choose a Twin Engine Speedboat?

With so many boat options available — speedboats, catamarans, motor yachts — it can be tough to decide which is the best fit for your day on the water. Sailboats are slower and limited in range, while power boats and motor yachts offer faster options. However, twin engine speedboats provide the ideal combination of stability, speed, and comfort. They are perfect for exploring further afield, even in choppier waters, and their larger size allows for more passengers, greater storage, and longer-range trips. Whether you’re looking for a day trip to the islands or a multi-day adventure, twin-engine speedboats are the perfect option for those who want to explore in style.

What If There’s Bad Weather?

In case of bad weather, we offer a full refund or the option to reschedule for a calmer day. All of our speedboat’s boats are designed to handle tropical rain and provide shade from the harsh sun. We constantly monitor wind and sea conditions for your safety. If conditions are unsafe, we don’t go out. During the wet season, when winds are stronger, areas like Phang Nga Bay and the Koh Yao islands are well-protected, making them a better choice of destination.

Multi-Day Private Speedboat Trips

For the ultimate island-hopping experience, consider booking a multi-day private speedboat charter. During daylight hours, our twin-engine boats are at your exclusive disposal, allowing you to explore remote islands, snorkel in hidden coves, and visit secluded beaches. After a day of adventure, unwind at a resort on one of the islands. We work closely with you to create a custom itinerary that suits your preferences, including the possibility of reaching distant destinations like Koh Lipe and the Tarutao National Park.

Where Can You Go on a Private Single-Engine Speedboat Charter?

Phuket is surrounded by an array of islands, each with its own unique beauty and charm, and our single-engine speedboats are the perfect vessels for discovering these gems. One of the most popular routes is to Phang Nga Bay, famous for its towering limestone cliffs, hidden lagoons, and iconic James Bond Island. Here, you can kayak through narrow caves and explore emerald-green waters that are sheltered and calm year-round.

Another stunning destination is Phi Phi Islands, known for their crystal-clear waters, dramatic cliffs, and vibrant marine life, making it a snorkeling and diving paradise. For a quieter escape, the Racha Islands offer pristine white beaches and some of the best snorkeling in the region. Other popular options include Koh Maiton, where you might spot dolphins frolicking in the water, and Coral Island, ideal for water sports like parasailing and paddleboarding.

Single-day private speedboat charters last between 8 to 10 hours, allowing plenty of time to explore one primary destination in depth. Instead of cramming multiple stops into one day, we recommend focusing on a single route to maximize your enjoyment without rushing. If you’re seeking a longer adventure, our speedboats can take you on a multi-day journey, venturing further south to the unspoiled islands of Koh Kradan, Koh Mook, and Koh Ngai, where crystal-clear waters, secluded beaches, and breathtaking sunsets await.

What’s Included in a Private Charter?

When you book a private day charter with us, we ensure that every detail is taken care of, so all you need to do is relax and enjoy the experience. Our packages include:

• A professional crew and an English-speaking guide to provide insights and local knowledge
• All fuel costs for your journey
• Ice coolers packed with ice to keep your drinks chilled throughout the day
• Complimentary drinking water, soft drinks, and a seasonal fruit platter
• Snorkeling gear and paddleboards, so you can dive into the clear waters and explore underwater life
• Full insurance coverage for peace of mind

Exclusions:

• Marine Park Fees for entry to protected areas like Phi Phi, Phang Nga Bay, or Krabi (approximately 12 Euros per adult, payable at the park)
• Lunch (you are welcome to bring your own food or dine at one of the many island restaurants, which offer a range of Thai and European dishes)
• Transport to and from the marina (available for approximately 60 Euros, depending on your accommodation location)

What About the Weather?

Phuket’s tropical climate can influence your speedboat adventure, so it’s important to plan accordingly. From May to October, during the monsoon season, certain routes, such as Phi Phi Islands, may experience rough seas and are less ideal for boating. However, Phang Nga Bay, with its protected and calm waters, remains a top destination even in the monsoon season, offering breathtaking views and sheltered coves that can be explored year-round.

From November to April, the weather is generally calm and sunny, making it the best time to visit more distant islands like Koh Racha and Koh Maiton. These islands offer smooth sailing and clear visibility for snorkeling, making them perfect for a sun-soaked day of adventure.

In the unlikely event of dangerous weather conditions such as strong winds or rough seas, we prioritize your safety and will cancel the trip, offering a full refund or the option to reschedule for another day. However, rain alone typically doesn’t prevent us from setting sail—our speedboats are built to handle tropical showers without a problem. For those seeking a more sheltered route during monsoon season, options like Phang Nga Bay, Koh Yao Noi, and Hong Krabi are excellent choices, as they are well-protected from strong winds.

Multiday Private Speedboat Trip

For those who want the ultimate island-hopping adventure, our multi-day private speedboat charters provide the freedom to explore beyond the popular day-trip destinations. Imagine spending your days hopping between secluded bays, pristine beaches, and vibrant snorkeling spots, all while enjoying the exclusive use of your speedboat.

On multi-day trips, you can travel as far south as the serene islands of Koh Kradan, Koh Mook, and Koh Ngai, where time seems to slow down, and the untouched beauty of nature surrounds you. During the day, the speedboat is yours to explore the best spots at your leisure, and at night, you’ll retreat to the comfort of a resort on one of the islands. We work with you to design a custom itinerary based on your preferences, whether you’re looking to snorkel, sunbathe, explore marine parks, or simply relax on the beach.
