Krabi 7 Islands Sunset BBQ Tour
The Krabi 7 Islands Sunset BBQ Tour with Phuket Travel Store is one of the most unforgettable island experiences in southern Thailand. Whether you travel by traditional longtail boat or speedboat, this tour combines adventure, relaxation, snorkeling, and a magical evening on the beach under a glowing Andaman sunset. It’s perfect for couples, families, and travelers looking to explore Krabi’s most beautiful islands in one day.

Explore the Best of Krabi’s Islands
Your day begins with a convenient hotel pickup from Krabi Town or Ao Nang. After a short transfer to the pier, you’ll board your longtail or speedboat and set off across the crystal-clear waters of the Andaman Sea. The journey takes you through a series of small limestone islands surrounded by turquoise waters — the perfect introduction to Krabi’s stunning seascape.
Our first stop is Tang Ming Island, an excellent snorkeling location known for its colorful coral reefs and clear visibility. Here, you can swim among schools of tropical fish and maybe even spot a clownfish (“Nemo”) darting through the coral. With the dramatic cliffs of Krabi as your backdrop, this spot offers ideal photo opportunities.
Snorkeling at Chicken Island
Next, the tour continues to the world-famous Chicken Island, a limestone rock formation shaped like a chicken’s head that has become one of Krabi’s natural icons. Beneath the surface, you’ll find thriving marine life — parrotfish, butterflyfish, and sea urchins in the shallow reefs. Your guide will point out the best areas for snorkeling and help you capture breathtaking photos of the surrounding islands.
As you circle Chicken Island, the views are spectacular from every angle. You’ll see lush green cliffs rising from the sea, soft white beaches, and the vivid blue of the Andaman blending perfectly with the horizon.

Visit Tub Island and the Natural Sandbank
After exploring Chicken Island, you’ll head to Tub Island, one of Krabi’s most unique natural wonders. Depending on the tide, a white sandbar appears, connecting Tub Island to Chicken Island and the nearby Koh Mor. At low tide, you can actually walk between the islands — a perfect chance to take photos and enjoy the rare beauty of this natural phenomenon. If the tide is higher, you can simply relax on the beach, swim in the warm shallows, or enjoy the tropical scenery all around.

Relax at Poda Island and Enjoy a Beach BBQ Dinner
Next, you’ll travel to Poda Island, one of the most picturesque islands in Krabi. Its long stretch of soft white sand, clear water, and coral reefs make it ideal for both snorkeling and sunbathing. You can explore colorful reefs just offshore, or simply relax in the shade of palm trees while the tour staff prepare your evening Thai BBQ dinner.
As the sun begins to set, dinner is served right on the beach — a delicious selection of grilled seafood, chicken, vegetables, tropical fruits, and cold drinks. The smell of the BBQ mixed with the ocean breeze creates a perfect island atmosphere.
This relaxing dinner experience is one of the highlights of the tour, offering travelers a chance to enjoy good food and amazing views as the sky turns shades of orange, pink, and gold over the Andaman Sea.

Bio-Luminescent Plankton Experience
After dinner, the adventure continues. The boat heads toward Railay Beach, famous for its dramatic cliffs and laid-back vibe. From the water, you can capture incredible photos of the landscape as the last light of the day fades.
Then comes one of the most unique experiences in Thailand — swimming among bio-luminescent plankton. This natural phenomenon occurs when microscopic organisms in the sea glow with light when disturbed. As you move through the water, thousands of tiny lights sparkle around you, creating a magical, starry effect under the night sky. The glow is most visible when the moon is low, making this activity dependent on weather, tide, and moon phase conditions.
It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that leaves every guest amazed and is often described as the most beautiful memory of their trip to Krabi.

Return to the Pier
After the plankton swim, the boat slowly returns to the pier around 19:30, giving you time to relax and enjoy the cool evening air. You’ll be transferred back to your hotel, full of memories from a truly special day in Krabi.

Customer Testimonials
Excellent Phuket City Tour
We had a great day exploring Phuket with Phuket Travel Store. The guide was professional and friendly, sharing many interesting insights about local life and culture. We visited Wat Chalong, Phuket Old Town, beautiful viewpoints, and local markets with plenty of time to enjoy each stop. The transport was comfortable, and the whole tour was well organized.
Best Phi Phi Islands Tour
We joined the Phi Phi and Bamboo Islands tour last Friday and it was absolutely perfect! The booking process was super easy, pickup was right on time, and the service throughout the day was excellent. Everything was well organized, the crew was friendly, and the experience was very enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommend Phuket Travel Store as a trustworthy and professional tour and travel agent!
Wonderful experience with elephants!
This was one of the most beautiful trips we've ever made. The elephants really live here species-appropriate - no riding, no coercion, just peace and respect. We could feed them, take them for a walk and experience them up close. The atmosphere was totally relaxed, nothing was overflowing or touristic exaggerated. Also the guides were super friendly and told a lot about the animals and the background of the project. You can tell immediately: Here, the welfare of animals is paramount. For those who love animals and value responsible tourism, this is an absolute must. Thanks to Phuket Travel Store for this special experience!

Speedboats are ideal for those who want efficiency and comfort. They usually include amenities like cushioned seating, refreshments, onboard staff, and modern navigation. Many travelers prefer them for day trips to islands farther from Phuket, such as Phi Phi or Similan. Because of their speed, they’re also great for avoiding crowds by reaching popular destinations early in the day.
