Racha
Yai Island
Racha Yai
Island has clean, powdery beaches like those of the Similan
Islands. On the east, at Ao Kon Kae Bay, is a coral reef where
the diving is excellent. With well preserved hard corals in
both shallow and deeper water, snorkeling and scuba diving
are the favorite activities. A foot path leads to the top
of a hill on the bay's south side which provides a panoramic
view of whole island. You can follow the footpath down to
the other side of the island where there is a lovely, nearly
deserted beach.
South of Phuket,
and about 1 and one half hours by regular passenger boat,
or less than an hour by express boat, Racha Yai and its sister
island Racha Noi should be avoided during the monsoon season
when travel may be restricted.
