What To Expect

Start your snorkeling adventure with hotel pickup on Koh Samui and a transfer to the pier. You’re served a light breakfast of cookies, fresh fruit, coffee and tea before boarding the speedboat to your first stop: Koh Nang Yuan.

The trip across the Gulf of Thailand takes around 1.5 hours. On arrival at the island, explore the tropical marine life while snorkeling on the coral reef and climb up to a viewpoint for incredible views of the island, located just 10 minutes away from Koh Tao. Don’t forget to bring your camera!

Replenish with a tasty buffet lunch at a restaurant before continuing on to Koh Tao. Your speedboat tour takes you around the island, passing Mango Bay, Shark Bay and Hin Wong Bay where you can stop to swim or snorkel.

After a full day of fun in the sun you’re transferred back to Koh Samui with drop-off at your hotel.

Snorkeling at Koh Tao was fantastic...

Mariana_B, Apr 2017

Snorkeling at Koh Tao was fantastic. Koh Nang Yuan was totally overcrowded - yet we had a lovely snorkelling straight from the beach which was very nice.

You feel like a sheep, herded along...

Johan K, Feb 2017

You feel like a sheep, herded along with the throngs of tourist also attending the trip. Total 7 speedboats with 30 people in each by this organizer only. The waters in Koh nang yuan was so crowded you couldn't almost get in. One hour appointed , in which you should change clothes, get on and off boat with 30 people and maybe go to bathroom. Very little time in water. Lunch ok, not more, 40 minutes, eat quick. Koh Tao big disappointment. This location is totally over exploited. Tourists everywhere. Guides forgot give us tickets and left in boat. Most of the time I queuing , waiting. Lots of rude Chinese tourist with no manner. There are probably better locations on Koh Tao. Stay the night, hire local/exclusive guide. Less than one hour in the water in the water, for us, on this trip. Not recommended. Staff were friendly though. Saw some fishes, which is not very likely to do on Koh samui.

Extremely professional, and more...

Extremely professional, and more than I expected. Beautiful destinations, a must for a day trip.

Unfortunately there is not enough...

Kevin S, Jul 2016

Unfortunately there is not enough snorkeling on this trip for me.Koh Nan Huang was very shallow and the coral was dangerous. The guide was nice and entertaining but did not guide us.

pas intéressant .

Franoise_P, Jan 2020

Descriptif pas respecté !

marie-annick G, Oct 2019

Les iles sont évidemment toujours aussi magnifiques, nous avions choisi d y revenir suivant le descriptif pour faire d autres bay en snorkeling, bilan on n a fait que mango beach! Descriptif mensonger , dommage! Personnel sympa , repas sympa et eau à volonté.
