Phuket Travel: Escape the City Hustle and Bustle, It's Truly Stunning

Things to Note When Visiting Khai Island in Phuket: • Itinerary & Safety: Children under 2 years old and seniors over 70 are not recommended for boat trips. If elderly travelers are in good health, they may opt for more stable yachts or catamarans. Check weather and sea conditions before departure—avoid going out when it's windy or waves are high. Listen carefully to the guide's safety briefing, always wear a life jacket when snorkeling, check equipment safety, and look out for each other in your group. • Gear & Attire: Prepare snorkeling gear in advance, and consider bringing your own mouthpiece for hygiene. Wear water shoes or fisherman's sandals to avoid cuts from broken coral or sea urchins. Change into swimwear at the hotel to save time, and bring a change of clothes and a towel. Don’t forget sun protection—pack sunscreen, a sun hat, sunglasses, and a UV-protective shirt. • Island Activities: Khai Island visits are usually short, typically around an hour. On the island, you can rent a lounge chair (about 100 THB) for shade and relaxation, and ask the vendor to watch your bag (but keep valuables with you). Avoid feeding fish with bread or crackers; instead, buy a coconut from local stalls and use the shredded flesh to feed them. • Miscellaneous: Bring a waterproof phone case and dry bag to protect passports, cash, and valuables. For photo memories, consider hiring an onboard photographer—pay once for unlimited shots during the trip.
