Private day charters from Phuket, sized to the time you actually have — from a quick 4-hour run to a full 8-hour island day.
Overview
Every charter is priced and routed around a single boat for your group only — no shared departures. Choose a duration below to see which islands realistically fit, then check a specific yacht's page for its own capacity, inclusions and starting rate.
A 4-hour charter suits a shorter window — a morning cruise, a sunset run, or a taste of the fleet before committing to a longer trip. It works best for destinations close to the marina, such as Coral Island or the Khai Islands, where the crossing itself doesn't eat into your time onboard.
Good for smaller groups short on time, or anyone wanting a sunset sail with drinks rather than a full island day.

Six hours is the duration most families and groups choose — long enough to actually swim, snorkel and relax rather than just cruise. It comfortably reaches Koh Hong or Racha Islands, with time for lunch onboard before heading back.
This is our most-booked duration for exactly that reason: enough time on the water without turning into a full-day commitment.

An 8-hour charter gives you the most room to slow down — reaching further destinations like Phi Phi Island or Phang Nga Bay with genuine time to explore once you arrive, plus a relaxed lunch and return.
Because crew, cleaning and marina costs are similar across durations, the step up from 6 to 8 hours on the same boat is often smaller than the extra time suggests — ask us for a like-for-like comparison on your shortlisted yacht.

The Similan Islands and Koh Lipe are too far for a single-day round trip from Phuket — realistically these are overnight or multi-day charters on a suitable vessel. Ask us if you want to plan one.
Starting charter rates across our fleet currently range from ฿25,900 to ฿390,000, depending on the vessel, guest capacity and duration you choose. Every quote separately itemizes the charter fee, any mandatory marina or guest fees, tax, and optional catering — see how pricing works or a specific yacht's own page for its starting rate.
A 4-hour charter suits a shorter trip or a sunset run to a nearby island. 6 hours is the most popular length for families and groups who want real time swimming and relaxing, not just cruising. 8 hours gives you the most flexibility for a longer island, lunch onboard and a slower pace.
You can tell us your priorities — swimming, snorkeling, a specific island — and we'll suggest a route that realistically fits your chosen duration and the vessel you book. The confirmed itinerary depends on the boat, sea conditions and season.
Not always. Crew, cleaning and marina costs are similar across durations, so the difference between a 6-hour and 8-hour charter on the same boat is often smaller than the difference in time onboard. Ask us for a like-for-like comparison on your shortlisted boat.
Those routes are too far for a single-day round trip from Phuket and are realistically overnight or multi-day charters. See our Similan Islands and Koh Lipe destination pages for details.
