Speedboat Charter Phuket
Speedboat charter Phuket trips are the fastest way to reach the islands. Where a catamaran needs three hours, a fast boat gets there in one — so you can cover two or three islands in a day, or simply head out for a couple of hours without committing to a full programme.
Horizon Cruises Phuket has 7 speedboats for 4 to 12 guests, starting at ฿21,000 per trip. It is the most affordable format for a couple or a small group.

Prices are in Thai baht and are the final guest price. Trip length and inclusions are listed on each boat’s page.
Private Speedboat Phuket: Speedboat or Yacht?
Couples and small groups. Limpopo Axopar 28 takes 4 guests from ฿21,000; Monterey M65 and Axopar 37 LILA take up to 6. There is no point chartering a 50 ft yacht for four people.
Anyone short on time. A half day on a speedboat is a real trip with swimming and snorkelling, not just travel time there and back.
Island hopping. At 25–35 knots you can genuinely combine Coral Island and Maiton in one outing, or reach the Racha Islands and still have time in the water.
An active day or fishing. Ask your manager which boats are set up for fishing — it depends on the individual vessel.
Almost every boat in this selection is a day charter. Only Nimbus T11 is set up for overnight, for up to 4 guests.

- Racha Islands — reachable even on a half day by speedboat;
- Phi Phi and Bamboo — a full day with real time on the islands themselves;
- Hong Island, Phang Nga — cliffs and lagoons a fast boat reaches without rushing.

For a private speedboat island tour, choose the route before choosing the boat. A Phuket private speedboat charter or private speed boat works well for day trips across the Andaman Sea, while Phang Nga Bay, James Bond Island, the Similan Islands and Krabi require separate timing, season and departure checks. Not every speed boat charter can serve every route. Ask about speedboat availability, Khai Nok, a private speedboat tour, boat tour options and any additional request for your group. A luxury speed boat may add comfort, but licensed capacity, sea conditions and the actual itinerary matter more.
Private speedboat charters are crewed. This Phuket speedboat charter page shows final guest prices; exact equipment and first aid arrangements should be confirmed for the chosen boat. Use the phrases “Phuket speed boat charter” and “phuket private speedboat charter” only as search labels—the service quoted to you will name the actual boat, route and inclusions.
What Does Private Speedboat Charter Phuket Include?
Speedboat charter Phuket prices shown here are final guest prices in Thai baht. There is no separate fuel surcharge on top. The quote names the boat, departure point, duration and agreed route, so you can compare the total charter cost before booking.
The range runs from ฿21,000 for Limpopo Axopar 28 with 4 guests to ฿115,000 for Nimbus T11. Boat size, trip length and distance all matter — the further islands need more fuel and more hours.
A trip usually includes fuel for the route, drinking water and soft drinks, ice, towels, snorkelling gear and insurance. Exact inclusions are on each boat’s page.

Choosing a company. Compare the actual boat, licensed capacity, final price, crew, route feasibility, recent reviews and written weather and cancellation terms.
What to bring. Bring sun protection, swimwear, personal medication and a waterproof bag for valuables. Ask whether towels and any special equipment are already included.
Cancellation policy. Terms vary by boat and booking. Read and confirm the written policy before paying; do not assume that every Phuket speedboat charter uses the same conditions.

Frequently asked questions
How Much Does Speedboat Charter Phuket Cost?
From ฿21,000 for Limpopo Axopar 28 with 4 guests. Axopar 37 LILA is from ฿64,000, Sacs Strider 15 for 12 guests from ฿85,000 and Nimbus T11 from ฿115,000.
How many people fit on a speedboat?
Between 4 and 12 guests. The largest here is Sacs Strider 15 at 12, then Nimbus T11 at 10, with Jeanneau Cap Camarat 10.5 and Sacs Strider 11 taking 8 each.
Can we reach Phi Phi in a day?
Yes — a speedboat gets to Phi Phi considerably faster than a catamaran, which leaves more time on the islands. Your manager will confirm the exact programme when you book.
Is a speedboat good with young children?
At speed a fast boat rides harder than a catamaran, so with small children a catamaran is more comfortable. For a short trip in calm conditions a speedboat is fine — ask about child-size life jackets.
Can we go out for a few hours instead of a full day?
Yes, short trips are the standard format in this category. Available durations are listed on each boat’s page.
Is there a speedboat we can stay overnight on?
In this selection only Nimbus T11, for up to 4 guests. For overnight with a larger group, see power catamarans or motor yachts.
