A bad day fishing.

The boat was okay, the crew was friendly and our guide was excellent. Remembering this is a fishing charter, the equipment was disastrous. There were 8 people fishing, but only 7 rods and reels were available. 2 of the rods had reels that weren't fit for purpose either. We fished an area that had no reef, and the fish that came out were maximum 20cm long. This was an obvious attempt to ensure that some fish were caught. When I did eventually get a chance to fish, a member of the crew literally took the rod out of my hands to fish himself. So, lunch was good, and the Andaman Sea and islands are beautiful, but as far as rating the fishing, it was a 0 out of 10 for me. I paid nearly $200 Aud to go fishing but ended up being a spectator. Will definitely not be going back to this charter next time I'm in Thailand, and I can not recommend them to others who want to go fishing.

Response from the operator: Dear Kev702, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear that your fishing trip did not meet your expectations and appreciate the opportunity to respond. We regret the issue with the fishing equipment and the number of rods available onboard that day. This is not the standard we aim to maintain, and we are actively reviewing this with our team to prevent such issues in the future. Please note that this program is not designed to be a full-day, dedicated fishing charter. The journey from Phuket to Racha Island is quite far, and our itinerary is time-limited. Due to distance, weather, and government restrictions, we can only fish in specific zones, and the fishing portion is meant to be a fun, light activity rather than a professional sport-fishing session. The true highlight of this trip is the overall experience. cruising the beautiful Andaman Sea, enjoying freshly cooked lunch on board prepared by our crew, and swimming in the crystal-clear turquoise waters of Racha Island. The fishing activity is just one element added for enjoyment during the day. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the scenery and lunch, and again, we sincerely apologize that the fishing aspect was disappointing. Your feedback is valuable and helps us improve our services. We hope to welcome you back in the future for a more enjoyable day on the water. Warm regards, Nix

Underwhelming

The trip was sadly nothing worth doing I was excited to go out and get some deep sea fishing but we never got a chance to. Of the group of 14 only three ever even sat down to try and fish while trolling. They stopped to let everyone do some jigging, but the boat had too many people and our lines kept getting tangled with the person next to us. The guides didn't seem to know where the fish were. Even when we saw sea birds diving at a spot, they didn't even attempt to go over and see what was driving the bait fish to the surface. Not only that, but the boat returned an hour early. Overall I'm just as disappointed in the trip as the other passengers. I know that when fishing there's a chance you won't catch anything, but I at least expected a chance to try and do some fishing. Hard to do when you spend the entire time untangling your line from the guy's next to you.

Response from the operator: Dear Rexm343, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your fishing experience did not meet your expectations. Our goal is to provide an enjoyable and memorable experience for all our guests, and it’s disappointing to learn that we fell short during your trip. We understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with tangled lines and limited fishing opportunities. We appreciate your feedback regarding the group size, fishing locations, and timing, and we will review these concerns with our team to improve future trips. We would love the opportunity to make it up to you. If you’re open to it, please reach out to us at email : info@vibescation.com, and we’d be happy to discuss how we can improve your experience. Thank you again for your honest review—we value your input and hope to have the chance to provide a better experience in the future. Best regards, Nix

A fun filled day!

It was a full day of fun. We went fishing with this tour in the beautiful waters of Phuket. Everything worked out as planned. We booked the day before and got an immediate response from tour operator. So nice! We got picked up at hotel at 7am. After an hour and half of car transfer, we arrived at the Pier and wax quite promptly get on the boat. Racha Yai island fishing spot was about an hour away. Water was about 30 Meter deep. Crew was diligent and helpful. There were no bites on any of our lines. The boat captain though got three small fishes as soon as he dropped the line. Lunch was good. The crew made fried rice, chicken wings and fried the fishes caught. Then, we swam at a Cove. Life is beautiful. By the time we got back to the pier, it was 5pm. We requested to be dropped off at Patong. It was accomplished.

Response from the operator: Dear Michael, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review of your Fishing Day Trip with us! We're thrilled to hear that you had a fun-filled day enjoying the beautiful waters of Phuket. It's great to know that everything worked out as planned and that our prompt response and efficient pick-up service met your expectations. We're glad you appreciated the crew's diligence and helpfulness throughout the trip, even though the fish were being a bit elusive that day! We're also happy to hear that you enjoyed the lunch prepared by our crew and that you had a chance to swim in the cove. We strive to make every moment of the trip enjoyable and memorable. Thank you for choosing our tour and for sharing your experience. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon! Best regards, Nick

Beautiful

We were lucky as there weren't many people when we went so we were able to have a good look around. Shoes must come off to enter the Temple and females must be covered.

Fishing Day trip with Lunch: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.

How much does Fishing Day trip with Lunch 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 Fishing Day trip with Lunch take?

+

Plan for about 1 hour 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 Fishing Day trip with Lunch worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 39 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.2/5 across 5 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 Fishing Day trip with Lunch?

+

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 Fishing Day trip with Lunch suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 1-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Fishing Day trip with Lunch?

+

Around 2 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 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Fishing Day trip with Lunch 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.
