Our Ko Racha Yai packages combine luxurious resorts, crystal clear experiences, and hassle-free travel arrangements — for a holiday that feels like fairy magic.
Snorkelling and Diving Adventures
Swim through some of Thailand's purest waters, with visibility of up to 30 meters. Ko Racha Yai is renowned for its coral reefs and rainbow-coloured marine life — you can expect to spot everything from parrotfish to stingrays. Dive sites such as Homerun Reef and Racha Noi's South Tip are favoured among divers — the underwater scenery is simply breathtaking. Whether you are an experienced diver or not, this island is every diver's paradise.
Beach days at Ao Patok and Siam Bay
Spend relaxed days at Ao Patok Beach, the island's central beach and an idyllic retreat of soft white sand and quiet waters ideal for swimming. Or stroll a bit more to Siam Bay, a more serene stretch with shallow reefs suitable for snorkelling from the shore. The sea breeze is so gentle, the sound of waves, and tropical cocktails in hand - it's your postcard moment made real.
Luxury Resort Living
Relax at some of the island's best resorts, such as The Racha, which provides eco-luxury villas, plunge pools, and holistic spa treatments. Most packages feature candlelit beach dinners, ocean-view infinity pools, and sunset cocktails, making your island experience feel luxurious and private.
Island-Hopping Excursions
Make Ko Racha Yai your hub for day excursions to nearby islands such as Coral Island (Koh Hae), Phi Phi Islands, or Racha Noi itself. Embark on a private speedboat or long-tail boat and discover secluded lagoons, sculpted cliffs, and virgin beaches. Island getaways provide an additional layer of exploration for your Racha Yai holiday.
Sunset Views & Beachside Dining
When the sun goes down, below the horizon, Ko Racha Yai is a golden, romantic retreat. Have seafood banquets, BBQ dinners, and cocktails at stylish beach restaurants such as Earth Café or Fire Grill. Or ask for a private dinner arrangement under the stars - with lanterns, music, and the sea breeze making it an experience never to be forgotten.
