4 reviews for Coral Island (Kahung Beach) Half Day Speedboat Tour from Phuket Saison 2026/2027
Lisa & Jonas aus Köln –
Wir wollten einen entspannten, aber erlebnisreichen Ausflug – und genau das war es! Der Kahung Beach ist traumhaft schön, das Wasser glasklar, und das Personal super freundlich. Besonders gefallen hat uns das kurze, aber tolle Schnorcheln – einfach ins Wasser und schon waren bunte Fische da. Auch der Transfer lief reibungslos. Absolute Empfehlung für Paare!
Anna & Tobias aus Zürich –
Ein perfekter Halbtagestrip! Die Organisation war top, und die Speedbootfahrt hat Spaß gemacht. Am Strand war es trotz anderer Besucher angenehm ruhig – ideal zum Abschalten. Wir haben ein leckeres Getränk an der Beach Bar genossen und sogar Nashornvögel gesehen. Wir würden die Tour sofort wieder machen – danke für diesen Mini-Urlaub im Urlaub!
Martina, 33, aus Hamburg –
Ich habe spontan gebucht und es nicht bereut. Alles war bestens organisiert, die Crew hilfsbereit und der Strand wunderschön. Ich habe mich auch als Alleinreisende jederzeit wohlgefühlt. Ein Stern Abzug, weil ich gerne noch etwas mehr Zeit zum Schnorcheln gehabt hätte – aber sonst alles super!
Daniel, 42, aus Wien –
Als Solo-Traveller fand ich diesen Trip ideal – nicht zu lang, abwechslungsreich und mit angenehmer Gruppengröße. Die 10 Minuten zum Schnorchelspot waren kurz, aber intensiv. Auch der Blick vom Boot aufs türkisfarbene Wasser war ein Highlight. Toller halber Tag auf Coral Island – sehr zu empfehlen, auch allein!
