As a company we believe in giving each and everyone of our customers the personal touch. For reasons of speed and time zones we maintain email contact, but once you arrive we like to speak with you over the phone and try to accommodate you in every way possible. Our managing director, Steve Anderson, does try and make it down to the pier every time we have customers going out to say hello and make sure everything flows smoothly for you. Also we are more than happy to help you with anything after you have finished your day with us.
Phuket is a beautiful island with many things to do and we try to point you in the right direction to get the best trips for your money. Our sister company, called Thai Travel Card, has a huge selection of tours and activities all over Thailand, offered at wholesale prices. Have a look at fantastic website here.
We are very careful with how we and our visitors interact with the life on Coral Island. We refrain from snorkeling at low tide due to the damage that can be caused to the coral reef. We make a daily effort to keep the beach and coral reef free from litter. We are active in exposing companies that do not follow eco friendly practices on our beach and reef. All Banana Beach businesses are united in maintaining the beach and reef's original state for the enjoyment of future generations.
All in all we consider ourselves a family,
the Coral Island Club Family. Just like the "Nemos" above
we live, work and play together.
Tourist Information
- Activities and Things to do at Coral Island Club
A day trip to Coral Island Club rates in
the 10 must see and do day trips in Phuket,
Phang Nga and Krabbi, Phi Phi region
for couples, families or group tours.
Snorkeling and scuba diving
are the most popular activities on Banana Beach. Some of the
best snorkeling can be done only meters from the one of the
most beautiful beaches in the Phuket region.
For those wanting to try scuba
diving a PADI introductory dive course can
be arranged. Powersnorkeling and snuba are also available.
Powersnorkel uses a floating battery operated
12 volt air pump to send air down an air hose to enable you
to breath underwater without heavy tanks.
Snuba is a system whereby a scuba diving
tank is floated on the surface and supplies the air to the
diver via hoses.
The result to the guest is the same for powersnorkel
and snuba. Both systems are easy, safe, fun
and you see everything a scuba diver
sees, however there is no heavy equipment to wear.
The best way to describe both Powersnorkeling
and Snuba is they extend snorkeling
towards diving.

Step 1. Snorkeling
