Ask any captain in Chalong where to go when the water needs to be perfect, and most will point south to Racha Yai. Close enough to reach in under an hour, far enough that the sea turns a clean, glassy turquoise you rarely see off the main beaches.
This route is far more about relaxing than adventure: one perfect island, calm bays, long swims and lunch on deck - a day that slows down the moment you leave the pier.

Racha Yai is the perfect escape for anyone dreaming of crystal-clear water, white-sand beaches and vibrant coral reefs.

Whether you're travelling with family, friends or simply looking to unwind, Racha Yai is one of Phuket's most loved yacht destinations.
