Coral island catamaran sailing ...totally misleading
Horrendous start. Late pick up by company so we missed first boat. Then we were dumped on coral island where there were 500 to 600 rows of deckchairs for two hours. Dreadful. Not allowed to stay on boat. Sails were never put up apart from on the sunset when the jibsail was used for 15 mins. Food was surprisingly good and the eve cruise to see sunset was good. Definitely a con as no sailing and we did not want to be with nearly 1000 on an island where beach had loads of plastic rubbish everywhere.

Floating Pier at Coral Island, Phuket
Hi, we booked the sailing catamaran tour to coral island from Nai Harn hotel / Phuket for feb 24. The tour was booked at the travel desk in Nai Harn hotel on Feb 23. The 2 offered core activities , snorkelling and watching sunset were cancelled due to bad weather. Therefore we had to stay for 3 hours at coral island which was crowded and the facilities especially toilets filthy and dirty. But the most critical part of the trip was that we had to use an approximate 150 long floating pier in order to go ashore and back to the boat later. The waves moved the pier in all directions without mercy. There was no chance to hold on the anything because this pier had no supporting handles at the sides. It was upmost dangerous to let the people walk on the pier without life jackets. Besides of the permanent movements of the pier waves overflooded the pier . It was a risky and dangerous experience which could have easily ended in a drama. The whole tour should have been cancelled. People should never uses this kind of floating piers under these weather conditions. Kurt Nass
Response from the operator: " The tour was booked at the travel desk in Nai Harn hotel on Feb 23 " So why write review here !?

Bad weather so we saw few things
The boat was new and so clean . Out tour guide , Iou, was a very nice lady and she tried so hard to take us to see as many places as we could , but it wasn’t possible , cause the weather was really bad and wasn’t safe for us . She gave us options though ,but we still chose to go back . We were a group of 20 people . Overall, was a nice experience . Would definitely do it again but in a nice weather .

A great tour
I'm not a great snorkeller so I didn't go swimming but I enjoyed the cruise, especially the lady who ran the brown team's tour. The dinner was tasty but I was a bit appalled to see so much get wasted at the end. Maybe donate it to a food charity instead.

Not a dinner cruise
This was marketed as a dinner cruise, and it is not. You eat on Coral Island before heading to the cape. The food was Thia food, and it was good. The snorkeling was good but only 30 minutes on the south side of the island before arriving on the beach. The included beach chair is not a lounge chair with umbrella. It is one of a group of chairs back from the beach in between the buildings
Response from the operator: Dear Customer, sorry to hear your experience did not meet expectations. but it's not dinner cruise you booked! Your feedback is important to us. 🙏 Kind regards, Thailand Tours team.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $2000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Phuket usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Phuket is not rushed.
Is Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.6/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Phuket, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Phuket can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Phuket and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Coral Island Sunset Sailing Catamaran Half-Day Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Phuket within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Phuket?
+
On Outty we rank every Phuket experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Southern Flavors Phuket Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, James Bond Island by Big Boat w/ Sea Cave Canoeing and Lunch, Phang Nga Bay Canoeing & James Bond Island Tour from Phuket. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Phuket?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Phuket?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
