  • Three Lift carbon-fibre eFoil boards laid out neatly on the polished teak swim platform of a luxury tender, masts and propellers visible, turquoise tropical water and a Phuket island in the background, golden hour.
  • A yellow Seabob underwater jet propulsion device skimming just below the surface of crystal-clear turquoise water with a single rider in a black wetsuit holding on, viewed from above and slightly behind.
  • A wing-foiler in mid-air carving turn against a dramatic Andaman Sea backdrop with a Phuket limestone karst in the distance, magenta and grey wing inflated above the rider, late afternoon light.
  • A polished mahogany Riva-style luxury tender at anchor in calm turquoise water off Phuket, two jet skis tethered alongside, water toys visible on the deck, a Phang Nga limestone karst rising in the background.
  • Overhead drone shot of a single eFoil rider carving a perfect arc through turquoise water leaving a clean spiral wake, bird’s-eye perspective, abstract minimalist composition, midday tropical light.

The full carbon-fibre stack on one boat, one day. Foil up at sunrise, Seabob the reef edge, tow-foil at sunset.

What's included

Every detail, on the same hand.

  • Private 50ft tender for the day, captain and deckhand
  • Two Lift carbon-fibre eFoils, two Seabobs, two jet skis
  • Tow-foil rig and wing-foil kit (seasonal)
  • Pro coach with one-to-one instruction for every guest
  • Provisioning incl. light lunch, refreshments, cold towels, sunscreen
  • Pickup from your villa or hotel marina, full insurance

The Lara difference

Why this is rarely done well.

The full hydro stack is sold as four separate products by four operators in Phuket, each with their own boat, schedule and coach quality. Combining them on one tender — with kit that’s actually new — needs a single integrator and a Riva-class platform that can carry the gear without crowding guests.

Lara consolidates the four operators onto one boat for the day. She names the specific tender, the coach, the kit (Lift Series 4 eFoils, Seabob F5 SR, Yamaha FX) and the route in one quote. Coach-to-guest ratio never drops below 1:2.

Two to six guests who want the full toy menu without committing to a multi-day yacht charter. Mixed groups — first-time foilers and experienced riders share the boat, the coach rotates. Strong swimmers only; coach signs off before any tow.

Common questions

The quiet answers.

  • What does a private hydro-day cost?

    All-in for the tender, captain, deckhand, pro coach and full kit (eFoils, Seabobs, jet skis, tow rig, fuel and lunch): USD 5,400–7,800 for two to four guests; USD 9,800–13,500 for five to eight. Wing-foil kit seasonal add-on.

  • Do we need experience to ride an eFoil?

    No. Most first-timers stand up within fifteen minutes and foil within an hour. The coach starts everyone prone and only progresses to standing once balanced.

  • Phuket, Pattaya or Samui?

    Phuket is the default — best water, most karst scenery, longest season. Pattaya works year-round if you’re Bangkok-based and want to avoid a flight. Samui in season (December–April) is quieter than Phuket but the kit pool is smaller.

  • Can the day pair with a yacht?

    Yes — Lara can run the hydro-day from a chartered superyacht’s tender platform, kit ferried out the night before. Useful if you’re already on a multi-day Andaman charter — see /experiences/similan-superyacht-charter.
