    Relatively quiet beach

    Nice clear water, relatively quiet beach compared to its counterpart Railay Beach, able to do rock climbing here as well. However, very shallow water making swim almost impossible (unless you go out of the fenced swimming area). Not much option for food.

    There were climbers that were scaling specific cliffs over the water out from Railey beaches, they were getting to them by boat.

    I would not have any problems bringing children on the long tail boats. They are very safety conscious and everyone has to sit “inside” the boats where the sides are covered. There is also life jackets easily accessible.

    you can arrange for the tour boat to depart at 7.30am or 8am. You might need to pay for the whole boat if there are no other passengers and you are in a hurry.

    Probably doing a 4 islands tour is your best option.. But I think you are packing in a lot within a day.. You could do it.. No doubt but you will get very little time at each place..
