Phuket, Thailand, must-have itineraries for sea trips Coral Island Coral Island

#100 Ways to Travel Address: 3/3 หมู่ 6 ราไวย์ เมือง Phuket 83130 Thailand Atmosphere/Facilities: Beach, bar, buffet, restrooms Features: Banana boat, underwater walks, scuba diving, boating Price per person: Varies from person to person Rating: Almost every island hopping trip in Thailand will have an island with beautiful beaches where you can play in the water and sunbathe. The most important thing is that you can show off your bikini generously. Coral Island is an island that takes about half an hour by speedboat. It can be regarded as a beach island that can be reached with a shorter voyage from Phuket. The first thing you notice when you arrive is the beautiful beach. The rows of lounge chairs under palm trees are almost the same as many of the installation art used for taking pictures. There must be an island owner on the island who needs to be introduced several times a day. Don't doubt that his job is to get closer to each other and emphasize how rare the paid facilities are. Personally, I think you can try it if it is included in your itinerary. If it is not included, I suggest you choose carefully. First of all, I have been to the waters near Phuket more than twice, including beaches and boat diving sites. No experience is ever good. First of all, the coral bleaching in the nearby sea area is serious, which can basically be said to be a dead coral sea area. The sea area near the beach is very shallow and the sandy beach is extremely long. There is no trench terrain even 200 meters away from the beach. In such waters, the visibility of fish and corals swimming along the shore is almost zero. In this kind of terrain you can put away your snorkeling gear because there will be nothing outside the white sand. It's perfect to wear your bikini and get your photographer ready for a splash in the water, the sun on Thailand's beaches is no joke! The film production rate is extremely high. The second reason is that what I hate the most is whether it is boat diving or beach diving, there is a high chance of encountering small jellyfish that make your whole body uncomfortable, and they are not very visible to the naked eye. Every time I try to get into the water I end up disappointed. Except for the banana boat rides on this island’s paid facilities, I would personally recommend giving up on all other water trips. Even sailing is a small boat. You must be mentally prepared to pay for seats in bars and restaurants. Many bartending photos look beautiful and feel suitable for taking pictures. But for consumers who have not purchased a seat, they will only give you an ugly plastic cup that is completely different from the picture. Seat fee: starting from 300 baht. Although credit cards are accepted, a 5% surcharge is required. It’s understandable that the island’s resources are in short supply and goods sold in tourist areas are sold at a premium, but the onion-peeling-like layering of fees is really a poor experience. Who would come out to play with water and bring a bunch of cash. The food in the buffet restaurant tastes pretty good and cannot be compared with the fine restaurants on the island. As far as the island is concerned, I personally think it's okay, because I've seen worse ones. The mess and stench in the restrooms and shower rooms is a nightmare that every beautiful beach island encounters. While concentrating on receiving tourists, we also hope that the island owner can use the human resources to take good care of your hygiene.
