Koh Pha Private Day Trip from Phuket & Khao Lak

Koh Pha, also known as Cloth Island, is a tiny sandbank rising beautifully from the Andaman Sea. Surrounded by crystal-clear blue water, this hidden island feels like a small desert in the ocean—peaceful, untouched, and known mainly by local fishermen.

Just one kilometer from Koh Pha lie three long untouched coral reef lines, creating excellent snorkeling sites with clear visibility, colorful reef life, and a quiet underwater atmosphere. This makes Koh Pha one of the most unique hidden island experiences near Phuket and Khao Lak.

JC Tour arranges this trip by private boat, allowing guests to explore at a relaxed pace. Enjoy swimming around the sandbank, relaxing on the soft white sand, and snorkeling at three virgin coral reef points for an unforgettable private Andaman Sea adventure.

We highly recommend: look at the highlight pictures, read the detail and program of this wonderful day trip carefully, and submit the booking.

The Island Untold

Koh Pha (Cloth Island) is one of the Andaman Sea's best-kept secrets. Hidden offshore and resembling a beautiful white sandbank, this secluded island remains largely undiscovered by mainstream tourism. Its powder-soft sand, crystal-clear turquoise water, and peaceful surroundings create the perfect escape for travelers seeking untouched tropical beauty.

Beyond the shoreline, Koh Pha is surrounded by three outstanding snorkeling sites featuring healthy coral reefs, vibrant tropical fish, and exceptional underwater visibility. With its unspoiled marine ecosystem and tranquil atmosphere, Koh Pha offers an unforgettable private island experience for nature lovers, snorkelers, and photographers alike.
