Detailed meeting information and times will be confirmed after booking, guests are required to stay overnight on Koh Phi Phi the night before. We depart from Koh Phi Phi Don on a modern, comfortable, and fast speedboat, heading to Koh Phi Phi Leh Island, just a short 20-minute ride away. Most days, we can set foot on Maya Bay Beach while the sand is still flat from the night before. On dates when beach access is restricted, we can still view Maya Bay from the front of the bay. National Park Fees are included in this tour, so there are no additional fees to see Maya Bay! After we’ve finished at Maya Bay, (when the other boats begin to arrive)!
