What to expect
Monkey Bay
Meeting point is in front of the McDonalds, near the Tonsai pier on Koh Phi Phi Don. Board the boat and head to Monkey Bay, a small jungle fringed bay where snorkeling is excellent with clear water and a great variety of colourful fish. The fascinating Long-Tailed Macaques clamber down the rock face to come and greet the boats and tourists. Big chance you’ll see them, but of course we cannot guarantee. The sequence of the places we visit may differ from the description and the time we stop at each place during the tour is approximate and includes travel time. NOTE: National Park fee is not included in the tour price and has to be paid cash on day of the tour (THB 400 per person; price subject to changes).
60 minutes
Viking Cave is one of the most unique natural sites on Koh Phi Phi Leh. The cave was so named, due to the prehistoric drawings that were found on the cave walls that resemble ancient viking ships. It is believed that these drawings were made by sea gypsies or pirates who stopped here to shelter from the monsoon storms. When the boat stops in front of Viking Cave you can see one of the most profitable local industries: the harvesting of swiftlet birds’ nests. Within the cave there are lots of ledges which are inhabited by thousands of swiftlets. These birds make their nests out of their own saliva, the nests are harvested and later sold to make birds nest soup, a Chinese delicacy, and believed to promote good health, specifically for the skin. The sequence of the places we visit may differ from the description and the time we stop at each place during the tour is approximate and includes travel time.
60 minutes
Ko Phi Phi Le
Pileh Lagoon or Phileh Bay is one of the most impressive sites on Koh Phi Phi Leh. The lagoon is surrounded by giant rocks and the water inside this beautiful lagoon is of the most crystal clear azure waters you may have ever seen. It’s very shallow and the bottom is made up of white fine sand that just slips between your toes. Pileh Lagoon is a wonderful place to snorkel. The sequence of the places we visit may differ from the description and the time we stop at each place during the tour is approximate and includes travel time.
60 minutes
We make our way to the next snorkeling spot, Maya Bay. With its sandy beach, jungle and steep limestone cliffs Maya Bay is Phi Phi’s most famous beach. It is the location where the 2000 adventure drama ‘The Beach’ starring Leonardo DiCaprio was filmed. (NOTE: every now and then Maya Bay is closed due to government regulations to help the ecosystem and coral reefs recover from tourism, so in that case we will go past this area for a photo only.) The sequence of the places we visit may differ from the description and the time we stop at each place during the tour is approximate and includes travel time. PLEASE NOTE: Maya Bay might be closed 1-2 months every year as per a government regulation. If Maya Bay is closed we will spend more time at one of the other bays for snorkeling and swimming. Maya Bay closure in 2024: from 1 August 2024 to 30 September 2024.
60 minutes
Loh Samah Bay
Loh Samah Bay is located in the southern part of Koh Phi Phi Leh island, precisely on the opposite side of Maya Bay. Dive into the shallow waters for some more snorkeling to explore the abundant marine life. The sequence of the places we visit may differ from the description and the time we stop at each place during the tour is approximate.

Regarding the stop at Monkey Bay: You must always remember that, no matter what, monkeys are wild animals, not pets. Even though they may look cute, especially the young ones, we always recommend to keep your distance, not bring any food with you and keep all your belongings in your bag. You don't need to come close as it’s just as fun to watch the monkeys from a distance.
