Private Speedboat Island-Hopping in Pattaya | Luxury Charter
Hop between the most stunning islands on your own private speedboat
Why go island-hopping by private speedboat?
Thailand's coastline has plenty of contenders, but the stretch off Pattaya holds its own: shallow turquoise water, white sand, coral you can actually swim down to. What changes the day isn't the scenery so much as who's setting the schedule. On a private charter, that's you. Pick the islands, linger where you like, skip the crowds that pile onto the group boats every morning.
Your captain and crew take care of the rest. You just show up for the water.
Where you'll go
No two islands here feel the same.
- Koh Larn (Coral Island): closest to shore and the busiest of the bunch, but for good reason. Beaches are solid and the snorkeling holds up.
- Koh Sak: smaller and crescent-shaped, with calm shallow water that suits swimmers of any age, kids included.
- Koh Krok: barely more than a speck, ringed by healthy coral. Good for underwater photos if that's your thing.
- Koh Phai (Bamboo Island): the furthest stop, and the payoff is cleaner sand with almost no one else around.
However you want to split your time is fine. Two hours at Koh Sak and twenty minutes at Koh Krok? Done. Skip an island that doesn't grab you, no explanation needed.
What's included in your charter
A private charter exists so you're not the one juggling logistics:
- A dedicated captain and crew who know these waters well
- Snorkeling gear and basic beach essentials, already on board
- Fresh fruit, snacks, and cold drinks for the trip
- Half-day or full-day departures, depending on what your day looks like
- Hotel pickup and drop-off from Pattaya and the surrounding area
Want more than the basics? Ask ahead about an onboard barbecue lunch, a photographer to capture the day, or stretching the trip into a sunset run.
Who this is for
A couple after a day away from packed beaches. A family that needs something safe for the kids but still genuinely fun. A group of friends marking an occasion worth remembering. Private speedboats work for all of it, and they've also become a go-to for corporate retreats and team-building trips along this part of the Gulf coast.
Plan your day on the water
Getting started is simple. Tell our concierge team which islands catch your eye, what you'd like to try once you're there, and whether anyone on board needs specific meals. We'll shape the itinerary around your answers.
The islands near Pattaya are meant to be seen at your own pace, not rushed between stops with forty strangers on a shared deck. Book your private speedboat and go where you actually want to go.
