🛥 Semi-yacht option available
Upgrade to a semi-yacht
The standard boat is a Speed Catamaran, and when booking you can switch to the two-deck semi-yacht Mindy. Mindy is a twin-hull catamaran with two decks, so it rocks less in the waves, meaning less risk of seasickness, and it has plenty of shade and seating. It is the boat TripRAON recommends first for families with children and anyone worried about seasickness. The semi-yacht Mindy operates only on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.

The journey begins at Royal Phuket Marina, where luxury yachts are moored. After a relaxing welcome drink at the Sawanu Lounge, head for Maya Bay, the setting of the film The Beach.
