Middle-aged Boy's Trip to Racha Island, Phuket - Ban Raya

Went on a vacation to Phuket at the beginning of the month⛱️ I was torn for a long time when choosing a hotel on Racha Island I saw a lot of posts about avoiding Ban Raya I was overthinking it! The experience was really good! 🌴Netizens recommended the 180-degree courtyard room (just over 400) But I booked late and it was the weekend, so only the villa was available (just over 900, including round-trip boat + return trip to Coral Island). Compared to Racha, which costs over 3,000 per night, it was a great deal. The public facilities at Ban Raya are really good👏🏻 The lawn, beach, and swings are all great for photos📸 And the best snorkeling spot on Racha Island is here Other day trips also come here for snorkeling🤿 I suggest bringing a disposable mouthpiece And bring snorkeling shoes, as the rocks here are slippery There are many fish🐟 underwater, and the scenery is as good as Similan (Unfortunately, it was cloudy. It would have been stunning on a sunny day) We also booked a small boat for fishing at Ban Raya🎣 A boat costs 3,000 baht🐷 and can accommodate 4 people Although waiting was a bit boring It was exciting to catch fish We caught a 3-jin grouper🐟 And saw a stunning sunset!! I personally think it was a very worthwhile trip to the island Although the prices on the island are not cheap, they are acceptable If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me!🙋🏻‍♂️
