- Racha Yai Island - The bigger of the two Racha Islands is also the most popular, with most people landing at the deep, U-shaped bay - Ao Tawan Tok (also known as Ao Bungalow). Several other bays surround the island, including the quiet and peaceful Ao Siam. There is a hotel on Racha Yai, but there is also plenty of undeveloped areas, with lush vegetation, limestone boulders and deserted beaches to explore.
- Racha Noi Island - Unlike its larger neighbour, Racha Noi is uninhabited. While it has more rocks than beaches, it is no less beautiful and the rugged shore creates great natural habitats for sea life, making it the better of the two for snorkelling, swimming, diving and fishing. Being the less popular of the two islands, this is also a great place to really get away from it all.

The Racha Islands are idyllic tropical islands near Phuket, with some of Thailand's best coral reefs, secluded bays and white-sand beaches. The sand here is particularly fine, snow-white in colour and with the consistency of talcum powder. The sea is crystal-clear, making it an especially good snorkelling and diving spot.
