How to Book

When you arrive in Koh Phi Phi you'll find that the island is not that big and you can easily find many different companies offering long boat tours through the sea cliffs of this area. You can book ahead, but I wouldn't stress about it. You can most likely negotiate a better deal in person. This will also give you flexibility to make sure you have a good weather window.

Phi Phi Island Boat Tours

You can choose whether to do a half-day or full-day tour. We opted for the perfect half day, we hit the highlights of the bays. Snorkeled in 2 different spots and went to Monkey Beach.

Where You'll Go

You can choose between a half-day tour or a full day. The full-day tour will take you to islands that are further out, but will still hit the main highlights. We chose the half-day option so we could come back and enjoy some relaxation time.

We were still able to visit Monkey Beach, snorkel twice and get those perfect Instagram pictures with the green sea cliffs towering above you. You can also choose to explore the national park, but there will be an extra cost.

Monkey Beach

@bridgetmiller

One of the stops you will make on the long boat tour. The monkeys are everywhere and can be a little mean. I kept my distance and got some amazing photos.

Viking Cave

@bridgetmiller

This cave looked super deep! We only past it, but went to a bay just a little further to get some more snorkeling in.

Pi Leh Bay

@bridgetmiller

This is one of the best places to get photos on the long boat tour. You were also given the opportunity to snorkel here, but there are so many boats, I wouldn't recommend it.
