Overview

Enjoy a memorable boat trip to the renowned Similan Islands; a stunning archipelago in the Andaman Sea in southern Thailand, which is made up of 9 islands. This is one of the best-known island groups in this area, and its fame is heavily due to having some of the most spectacular coral reefs in the world. When you first come to these islands, you will see huge boulders sitting on the shores on several of the islands, and these create a distinctive feature for this area. The beaches are snow white, with soft sand, and are perfect for enjoying a lunch picnic or just relaxing. You can often enjoy a deserted beach just to yourselves here. Beneath the incredibly clear turquoise waters, you can discover a plethora of beautiful coral reefs and unique marine life such as whales, dolphins, and Moray eels. The coral and marine life are so rich in the Similan islands, that there are said to be about 500 species of hard and soft coral here.

5 star, more like 10 stars!

Published on Nov, 2024

We had the best time on our tour, not only did we get to swim with sea turtles, lots of colourful fish and coral, Ning and the crew were so kind and friendly. We loved that we were able to customise the tour to maximise snorkelling and the picnic lunch was lovely. Thank you so much, next time we’re in Phuket we’ll definitely be back

Incredible day out with 5 Star!!!

Published on Apr, 2024

What a wonderful trip we had to the Similans! Khun Chris and the 5 Star crew were so knowledgeable and were wonderful guides! We had an incredible day out and everything was expertly and seamlessly orchestrated by 5 Star from the pick up to the drop off- excellent picnic and unforgettable day. Super attention to all the details- thank you so much! We live here in Phuket and have always had wonderful trips with 5 Star, but this was our 1st time to the Similans! Perfect!

The only trip you should do to the Similan Islands

Published on Mar, 2024

This was a last minute booking and I really wanted to see the island without so many people on the boat. The team at 5 Star Marina made this happen :) all at 6pm the night before. The team were professional, attentive and always thinking a step ahead which made the trip even more perfect. They understood my style of travelling and nothing was ever an issue. Thanks again team for an AMAZING trip :)

Swimming with the turtles

Published on Feb, 2024

The private tour to Similan was wonderful. The crew were attentive and flexible to fit the trip to our preferences, so that we made the most of our day. We really wanted to spent as much time as possible snorkeling, so they found us the best and least crowded spots throughout the day to get in the water and explore. They helped us find interesting sea life to spot with a highlight of swimming beside sea turtles. Two of us had been to Similan before and never seen the turtles, so this was a special trip. It was a wonderful day and we will definitely be using 5 Star Marine again next time we come to Phuket.

5 Star Marine's Similan Islands private charter.

Published on Jan, 2024

Our family enjoyed an unforgettable private charter to Similan Islands with 5 Star Marine. From the time of booking through to hotel pickup and drop off, the service was five star. Jun and his amazing crew went over above and beyond to make sure our day was amazing. Highlights included snorkeling off the boat with a mature green sea turtle and of course the breathtaking Similan Islands. I highly recommend 5 Star marine to family, friends and anyone in search of a unique experience.
