PISCES luxury catamaran service to launch in Phuket

Cape Odyssey is launching PISCES, a luxury catamaran service in Phuket, with a reported investment of US$2 million (B66.8 million) and operations scheduled to begin in July 2026.

The company said the service will offer premium trips in the Andaman Sea and Phang Nga Bay, targeting private and high-end tourism. PISCES is being managed by a professional team from Cape & Kantary Hotels, which has more than 30 years of experience in the hotel industry, according to the company.

The catamaran is 26 metres long and 10.8 metres wide, and can carry up to 70 passengers for private charters. It has a fibreglass hull, a large teak deck, an air-conditioned saloon with 360-degree views, a sound system and a DJ station.

Cape Odyssey said PISCES can cruise at 15 knots and will carry water-sports equipment including paddleboards, electric surfboards and sea scooters.

For shared voyages in Phang Nga Bay, the company plans to limit capacity to 45 passengers. Trips will depart from Ao Po at 11:00 and return at about 19:00, with transfers available from hotels in Phuket, Phuket International Airport and Ao Po. The advertised route includes Naka Island, James Bond Island, Panak Island and Hong Island, subject to daily natural conditions.

Prices start at B6,900 per person for a package including snacks, lunch and drinks. A VIP package costs B7,900 per person, while a private cabin can be added for B10,000 for two people.

Private charters will accommodate up to 70 passengers, with routes and departure points customised for each booking. Destinations listed by the company include Phi Phi Island, Khai Island and Hong Island.
