Had a seamless pickup and trip to the harbour about 2.5 hours south of Hua Hin where we were greeted by the tour operator and given access to tea, coffee, water and toast if wanted. We boarded the large speed boat for the transfer to the island about 20 minutes away. Once at the island we transferred to a large floating barge which had excellent shaded areas to place our possessions. At the time we were there we were the only group (about 10 people) so had no issues with crowds. We spent 40 minutes or so snorkelling in the first location and even though there were some green algae in the water the visibility was good, and we were able to see clearly enough. The corals and sea life was abundant and the fish were the least skittish I have experienced allowing us to float around with schools of fish within centimetres. Many varieties of coral, fish and shellfish including large, living cowry shells!
A large ship with many tourists onboard arrived in the location just as we were finishing and moving to our second spot for snorkelling. This place contained different corals and fish life from the first, this spot was also interesting and provided better visibility. After about another 40 minute snorkel we boarded the barge and were taken to the island dock and moved to the island resort for lunch. Lunch was amazing! A huge amount of food all served separately to each group from the tour including two separate prawn dishes. There was a bar available and the prices of drinks was reasonable given the location and the captive audience as there is no other option. After lunch we had about 90 minutes of free time on the island. We were able to visit an area set aside with large concrete tanks which house turtles hat were being raised as part of a conservation program. Each tank held turtles at different stages of development ranging in size from about 4 cm to about 25 cm. We chose to go for a swim and snorkel out from the island's beach where we saw yet different fish species.
When we visited the island there were only the 10 or so people from our tour group there so it was very quiet. There didn't appear to be any resort guests at that time and 90 minutes was more than enough time.
After this we boarded a smaller but still fast speed boat back to the mainland and transferred back to Hua Hin. The whole fay was about 11.5 hours but still very enjoyable. The villages on the drive there and back offer a different view of this part Of Thailand than that experienced in more urbanised and developed centres like Hua Hin and Bangkok.
