Coral Island / Banana Beach (Koh Hey)

Phuket / Thailand

Coral Island is a pearl among the nearby islands near Phuket and is therefore particularly suitable for those who shy away from a trip across the wavy sea and prefer to find their island experience in very sheltered waters.

There are two beaches to choose from on the northern side: Banana Beach and Kahung Beach, which is the main port of call. There is a Thai restaurant between the two beaches and the small Coral Island Resort offers small bungalows right on the beach.

There isn't much else to explore on the island itself - but there is a wide range of activities, from swimming and snorkeling to kayaking, ziplining, banana boat and parasailing.

Depending on the season, you can also visit a small romantic bay on the south side of Coral Island.
