Around Koh Yao Noi: Phang Nga Bay Private Longtail Day
An exclusive full-day private longtail across the most beautiful islands of Phang Nga Bay with snorkeling, SUP and a Hong lagoon visit.
Why guests choose this private route
A wide-open day on the longtail across the eastern part of Phang Nga Bay. The route is built for guests who want islands, lagoons, the giant tree of Koh Yao Noi, the wild monkeys of Koh Ling and the famous Hong Lagoon - all in one private boat with the pace adjusted to the group.
It starts at Ao Por Pier and crosses to Ko Kudu Yai for a quiet morning swim on a calm sandbar. After that the longtail moves to the authentic Koh Yao Noi for the ancient 'big tree' spot and a short island walk, then to Pak Bia, Koh Ling (monkey stop), the full Hong Islands block (lagoon with SUP plus the main Hong beach with lunch and snorkeling on the reef), the Koh Nok viewpoint and finally Laem Haad sand spit. Return to Ao Por by late afternoon.
