Why Choose a Catamaran?
Catamarans are the gold standard for island-hopping in Thailand. Their twin-hull design delivers benefits that no monohull can match:
- Stability — minimal rocking, even in choppy conditions. Perfect for guests who get seasick on regular boats
- Space — up to 2x the deck area of a monohull the same length. Enormous sun decks, trampolines, and lounging areas
- Shallow draft — can anchor closer to beaches and navigate shallow bays that deep-keel yachts can't reach
- Sailing experience — sailing catamarans offer the romance of wind power with the comfort of modern amenities
- Multiple cabins — ideal for overnight trips with separate sleeping quarters

Popular Catamaran Routes from Phuket
Coral Island & Promthep Cape (Full Day)
The most popular catamaran route. Sail to Coral Island for swimming and snorkeling, with lunch on the spacious deck. Return via Promthep Cape for sunset views. The catamaran's stability makes this trip comfortable for all ages, and the wide trampolines are a hit with kids and sun-seekers alike.
Phi Phi Islands (Full Day)
A full-day sailing adventure to Maya Bay, Pileh Lagoon, and Viking Cave. Catamarans handle the 1.5–2 hour crossing smoothly thanks to their twin hulls. Anchor in shallow turquoise bays that monohulls can't reach. From 35,000 THB.
Phang Nga Bay & James Bond Island (Full Day)
Navigate the dramatic limestone karsts of Phang Nga Bay. The catamaran's shallow draft lets you sail between towering cliffs and into hidden lagoons. Visit James Bond Island and the floating village of Koh Panyee. From 30,000 THB.
Overnight & Multi-Day Cruises
Catamarans are ideal for overnight charters with multiple private cabins, full galley, and en-suite bathrooms. Wake up anchored at a deserted island, swim before breakfast, and explore at your own pace. 2-day/1-night from 55,000 THB.
