Elizabeth Catamaran | Racha Coral Island Sailing with Sunset Fishing

Sail in style. Snorkel in paradise. Fish at golden hour.

Step aboard the Elizabeth Catamaran — Phuket’s most elegantly designed private-style catamaran — for an unforgettable full-day voyage to two of the Andaman Sea’s most celebrated island destinations: Racha Island (Koh Racha Yai) and Coral Island (Koh Hae). From crystal-clear snorkeling waters and playful water activities to a freshly prepared lunch with open sea views and a magical sunset fishing experience, the Elizabeth Catamaran delivers a premium ocean adventure unlike anything else in Phuket.

The Elizabeth Catamaran — Luxury Redefined at Sea

The Elizabeth Catamaran is not just a vessel — it is a floating sanctuary crafted for those who expect more from their sea days. Every detail on board has been thoughtfully considered, from the rose-adorned pool that adds a touch of romance and elegance, to the leather seating that ensures your comfort throughout the journey. The interior has been conceived with an exclusive bespoke design that sets Elizabeth apart from every other catamaran in the Andaman.

Whether you are relaxing on deck with a sea breeze in your hair, lounging in the onboard sea swimming pool, or gathering at the stern for sunset, the Elizabeth Catamaran makes every moment feel special. This is the gold standard for catamaran experiences in Phuket — and once you sail with Elizabeth, you will understand why.

Racha Island (Koh Racha Yai) — Phuket’s Crown Jewel

Just 12 nautical miles south of Phuket lies Racha Island, widely regarded as one of the most beautiful islands in the entire Andaman Sea. Protected from overdevelopment and blessed with some of the clearest water in the region, Racha offers a rare combination of natural beauty and tranquility.

The island is famous for its powder-white beaches, most notably Patok Bay, where the water shimmers in mesmerizing shades of turquoise and aquamarine. Beneath the surface, a vibrant underwater world awaits — colorful reef fish, sea turtles, and thriving coral gardens make Racha Island one of Phuket’s premier snorkeling and diving destinations.

Whether you are floating above coral-encrusted rocks, walking the shoreline, or simply taking in the panoramic views from the catamaran’s deck, Racha Island is a place that stays with you long after you leave. Visiting Racha aboard the Elizabeth Catamaran means experiencing this paradise in complete comfort and style.

Coral Island (Koh Hae) — Vibrant Reefs & Sparkling Shores

Coral Island, known locally as Koh Hae, is one of Phuket’s most beloved island escapes, located just a short sail from the city’s southern tip. True to its name, the island is fringed by healthy, colourful coral reefs that create a rich marine habitat easily explored even by beginner snorkelers.

Coral Island is home to two main beaches — Long Beach and Banana Beach — each offering calm, warm waters perfect for swimming and water play. The island’s gentle current and excellent underwater visibility make it an ideal snorkeling spot for all ages and experience levels.

Coral Island also offers a lively, festive atmosphere that complements the more serene Racha experience — the perfect pairing for a full day of island exploration aboard the Elizabeth Catamaran.
