Northern Cruise Itinerary
Days 1-3
For three nights you’ll be staying at a hotel in Phuket, with a great amount of time to explore the naturally beautiful island. Covered in rainforest-clad mountains and surrounded by turquoise waters, this island is home to some of Thailand’s most stunning beaches, so chill out in the sand, or discover the more vibrant main town of Patong.
Day 4
Phuket - Patong Bay
Today you’ll spend the day in Patong Bay to discover its luscious hillsides, verdant coconut groves, and its pristine white beaches. You can even dip in and out of a myriad of vibrant shops, restaurants and bars, before boarding the Star Clipper.
Day 5
Ko Surin
Built up of two relatively small islands, this gorgeous area is part of a National Marine Park, gracing travellers with unspoilt natural beauty both on land and under water. There’s an abundance of marine and land wildlife to spot, ducking between the lush flora and emerald waters.
Day 6
Similan Island
Otherwise known as Nine Islands, this is a very popular spot with diving enthusiasts thanks to its dream-like landscapes and the crystal clear Andaman Sea.
Day 7
Hin Daeng and Ko Rok Nok
Begin the day with an early morning visit to Hin Daeng, one of Thailand’s most dramatic dive sites. These small rocks jutting from the topaz waters plunge down over 50 metres underwater, home to plenty of tropical fish and marine life. Afterwards you’ll journey to Ko Rok Nok, one of 15 islands that make up the picturesque Lanta group, located just off the east coast of Thailand and part of a National Marine Park.
