Krabi 7 Islands Sunset Speedboat Tour with Beach BBQ and Plankton (from Krabi)
An afternoon and an evening rather than a whole day. A speedboat strings together seven stops in the Krabi archipelago, Phra Nang, Tub, Chicken, Tang Ming, Poda, then pulls in for a Thai barbecue served on the sand as the sun goes down, and finishes with a guided night swim among bioluminescent plankton off Railay.

Krabi 7 Islands Sunset Tour by Speedboat: Snorkeling, a Beach Barbecue and Glowing Water
Seven stops in half a day only work with a fast boat. The speedboat cuts the running time between the islands to a few minutes each, so an afternoon that casts off at 13:40 still has room for Poda, Chicken, Tub, Railay and the islet of Tang Ming with real time in the water at every one of them, instead of a schedule that has to drop half the list.
What the higher price buys is the last two hours. Dinner is a Thai barbecue laid out on the sand while the sun drops behind the limestone; then the boat moves out into the dark off Railay and you swim among bioluminescent plankton, microscopic organisms that give off a blue light wherever the water is disturbed, so every stroke leaves a trail behind your arm. The effect is strongest on nights with little moon. You are back at the pier by 19:30.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I tell whether an excursion is right for me?
Every tour and activity is described in detail in your personalized itinerary. For each excursion you will find precise information on:
- Difficulty level: easy, moderate or demanding.
- Duration: from half a day to a full day.
- Requirements: minimum level of fitness, recommended age and accessibility.
Please also bear in mind that sea excursions by speedboat are usually not suitable for pregnant women or for people with heart or back problems. Travelers with disabilities should be accompanied by someone who can assist them when needed. If you have any doubts or specific requirements, your Travel Consultant is always at your disposal for personalized advice.
What happens in case of bad weather?
Safety is our priority. If weather conditions make an activity dangerous or inadvisable, the excursion will be:
- Rescheduled: we will try to move the activity to another day of your trip.
- Replaced: if rescheduling is not possible, we will offer an alternative activity of equal value.
- Refunded: if neither rescheduling nor replacement is possible, you will receive a full refund for the excursion you were unable to take.
Please remember that rain during the wet season rarely spoils an entire day. You will always be informed in advance of any changes.
What are the pick-up times?
All meeting and pick-up details are clearly stated in your final travel documents (which you receive about 3 weeks before departure).
- Time: we will let you know the exact pick-up time. Please be ready at the agreed place at least 15 minutes beforehand.
- Pick-up point: in most cases the pick-up takes place directly in the lobby of your accommodation (if it lies within the areas covered by the service). If it does not, we will tell you the nearest meeting point.
What should I bring with me on the excursions?
For every excursion we provide a list of recommended items. In general, we always suggest:
- Suitable clothing: for example, long pants and no low-cut tops when visiting the Grand Palace in Bangkok, light and breathable clothes for hot areas, a swimsuit, or comfortable shoes for light trekking.
- Protection: hat, sunglasses and sunscreen.
- Hydration: water, especially on hot days.
- Vouchers and documents: where required, a copy (digital or printed) of your booking voucher.
Are meals or drinks included during the tours?
It depends on the excursion. The description of each tour in your itinerary clearly states whether the following are included:
- Lunch, dinner or snacks.
- Water or other drinks.
If you have any food allergies or intolerances, please let us know when you book, so that we can inform our local partners in advance.
Can I cancel or change a single excursion?
Yes, but specific terms apply. Cancellation and amendment conditions vary from one activity to another.
You will find the exact details for each excursion in the Terms and Conditions attached to your quotation. If you need to make a change or a cancellation, please write to us at info@thailandfantastic.com as soon as possible.
Are young children and infants allowed?
It depends on the activity. Some excursions, especially those by boat or those requiring physical effort, may have age or height restrictions for safety reasons. Any such restriction is stated in the tour description.
Please always tell us the exact age of every participant, children in particular, when you request a quotation.
