Great day out, would recommend it for a lazy day but snorkeling is problematical
Great day out, the weather and ocean conditions were not ideal, but can’t blame the operators for this. I doubt snorkeling is really ever a viable option given the location, but still a great day out and worth experiencing it

Fabulous Trip
Have to say one of the best boat trips we’ve been on. Pickup from hotel was punctual, and a guide from start to finish with superb. The boat itself was very comfortable, with the space for everyone. Food and drink was included, what a great selection!! the crew were unbelievably generous with drinks, and snacks throughout the trip. Main meal was lunch a really delicious selection of Thai food. First stop on Koh Phangan what’s for swimming/snorkelling, and then we moved on to our longest stop on a beautiful beach. A third stop was for swimming/fishing, so overall a good selection activities to suit most people. Alongside that we travel close to the coastline seeing some amazing beaches/rock formations. Boat sets off around 11 am, and travels that’s a really nice pace, bringing you back in time to see the sunset. We were really lucky as on the day we went the sunset was amazing. To finish things off just as we arrive towards the port crew set off some fireworks. What a great day. NB drinks included or soft drinks/water, but it is possible to buy alcohol on the boat at a reasonable price

Great Staff - Great Boat!
Great Boat, Staff, Food & Service. Unfortunately due to weather conditions only could go to one side Koh Phangan - beach stop very crowded - hindsight would have preferred to stay on boat & swim from there. Fishing non event - only ever going to catch small fish. Very ‘bumpy’ ride back to Samui, buts hats off to the captain & crew who were alert & responsive to rougher conditions. Overall relaxing journey- however we would go to one island rather than multiple stops to allow us to explore more next time - personal choice! But the friendly, hospitable staff outweighs the inconvenience of the weather!

Fun and fab full day of sights and swimming!
had such a blast on this boat trip with my friends! it was relaxing and fun with 3 stops along the way for swimming, snorkeling, and more. we soaked up every minute. the lunch was filling and delicious and they kept us well fed with snacks and light bites throughout the trip. it ended with a fabulous view of the sunset along with fireworks! truly a perfect day. the best part was the places the boat took us were quite peaceful and quiet. we were the only boat tours at all stops, which made for a nice experience.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Koh Samui.
How much does Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset cost?
+
Prices start at $2200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Koh Samui usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Koh Samui is not rushed.
Is Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 41 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Koh Samui, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset?
+
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 Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset?
+
Around 14 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 Koh Samui 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 Koh Samui and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full Day Chantara Pirate Junk Boat Koh Phangan Cruise with Sunset 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 Koh Samui 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 Koh Samui?
+
On Outty we rank every Koh Samui experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour, Cooking Class in Koh Samui with Micro Organic Garden, Half Day Elephant Home Sanctuary in Samui. 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 Koh Samui?
+
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 Koh Samui?
+
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.
