Phuket, Thailand

Today our excursion is Coral Island by Speedboat.

Jim, Lynn, Art, Donna, Dave, Karen, Kathy, Bob and I all got the same group. We made an extremely long walk to the bus parking. From here we took a 45 minute bus ride to our boat.

Our boat was very similar to other boats we have been on.

The boat ride was about 25 minutes.

We arrive at Coral Island and there was a floating dock that was very hard to negotiate.

We found that all the umbrella chairs were taken so we parked or stuff in as much shade as we could find.

We waited around for about 45 minutes before we boarded a boat to take us to the snorkeling spot. The water was cloudy and there was not a lot of fish but I love being in the water.

We returned to Coral Island and had lunch. Unfortunately, the food was not great.

After lunch, I headed out to float in the water.

There was a family of Hornbills which entertained us.

Soon it was time to return to the port.

Off the side of the ship there was a huge school of fish.Read more
