Island Days
The islands, from the only hill that reaches them
Your private gateway
Thailand’s most beautiful islands, one longtail ride away.
The Trang archipelago is the Andaman as it used to be — and from Phuket or Krabi it is a long day trip. From the coast below The Sunny Hill, it is your morning plan. Our concierge arranges private boats, captains, picnics and snorkel gear for every trip below.
Koh Kradan
15 nm · the world’s best beach
Crowned the world’s best beach, and it earns it: powder-white sand, water in impossible blues, and a coral reef you can snorkel straight off the shore.
Koh Mook & the Emerald Cave
11 nm · swim-through lagoon
Swim an 80-metre sea tunnel in torch-lit dark and surface inside a hidden emerald lagoon ringed by cliffs. We time it for low tide, ahead of the crowds.
Koh Ngai
8.8 nm · barefoot luxury
A car-free island of shallow turquoise water and long quiet sand — the gentlest island day of them all, perfect with children. Photo: Marcin Konsek / CC BY-SA 4.0
Koh Rok
24 nm · Thailand’s clearest water
Twin national-park islands with the finest snorkelling in the region — turtles, reef fish and visibility that feels like flying.
Koh Libong
19 nm · the dugong sanctuary
Thailand’s last wild dugongs graze the seagrass shallows here. Go out with a local spotter at first light for a sighting few travellers ever get. Photo: Nicocolll / CC BY-SA 4.0
Koh Phi
1 nm · our doorstep island
One nautical mile out — the little island on our doorstep. Cross by kayak or longtail on a calm morning for empty sand, shallow snorkelling and the view back up at the hill.
Koh Phi Phi
≈ 35 nm · the icon, worth the trek
The postcard cliffs of Maya Bay and Pileh Lagoon — a big, bold, full-day adventure best taken early from our quieter side of the sea.
Koh Lanta
11 nm · old town & long beaches
Slow-paced beaches, a charming stilted old town and excellent long lunches — easily combined with Koh Rok by boat or a coastal drive.
Koh Waen & Koh Chueak
≈ 10 nm · snorkel stops en route
Tiny limestone outcrops wrapped in soft coral and clouds of fish — the classic snorkel stops threaded into any island-hopping day.
Koh Sukorn
≈ 22 nm · local island life
The “watermelon island” of rice paddies, rubber farms and fishing villages — Thailand as it was, an hour and a world away.
Your own route
1–24 nm · private charter
Tell the concierge what you love — beaches, caves, reefs, or all three — and we’ll chart a private day around it, picnic included.
Stay where the islands begin.
