An excursion to the Racha islands, also known as the Paradise islands, offers a unique opportunity to explore some of the most picturesque and secluded corners off the coast of Phuket. These islands, including Racha Yai and Racha Noi, are renowned for their white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and stunning underwater world, making them an ideal destination for snorkeling and diving enthusiasts and those simply wanting to enjoy a tropical paradise. The journey begins with a pleasant speedboat ride from Phuket, during which guests can enjoy breathtaking views of the Andaman Sea. Upon arrival at Racha islands, visitors are warmly welcomed by turquoise waters and magnificent scenery. At Racha Yai island, tourists are greeted with ideal conditions for water sports. Here you can snorkel amongst the diverse coral reefs, watching colorful tropical fish, sea turtles and other underwater creatures. Divers of all levels will find amazing dive sites including shipwrecks and unique underwater landscapes. Racha Noi, the smaller of the two islands, attracts more experienced divers and those seeking even more solitude. Its waters are teeming with marine life, including rare species of fish and coral, making it a popular destination for underwater photography. On both islands, tourists can also enjoy a relaxing beach vacation, sunbathing under the tropical sun or lounging in the shade of palm trees. Many excursions include a picnic or barbecue on the beach, where guests can enjoy fresh seafood and local specialties. For those who wish to explore the islands up close, hikes are available along scenic trails leading to lookouts with magnificent views of the Andaman Sea and surrounding islands.
