About the tour

The Executive is not a yacht, not a catamaran, and certainly not a glossy toy for photos. It’s a true Thai longtail — a handmade wooden boat built by craftsmen following traditional blueprints, powered by a long-tail engine with a sound you recognize from afar. Simple, reliable, and alive — this is how people here travel the sea. You feel the movement of the water, the salty breeze, and the gentle murmur of waves beneath the hull. On board — a no-frills setup: shade from the canopy, soft seats, ice in the cooler, and as much fresh fruit as you like.

Half-day route (≈ 5 hours, two options: morning 09:30–14:30 or afternoon 13:00–18:00)

Khai Nai → Khai Nok → Khai Nui → Rang Yai
Quick island hops with swimming and snorkeling near the reefs. Khai Nai and Khai Nok — shallow warm waters. Khai Nui — a short stop for swimming. The trip ends at Rang Yai — beach relaxation, drinks, and fresh fruit.
