We were picked up on time from our hotel and taken to the pier and were given breakfast straight away. We then took the speedboat to the Surin Islands. In the morning we visited the Mokken village and went snorkeling. Then we went for lunch and in the afternoon there were two more snorkeling sessions. They were a real experience and indescribably beautiful. Experiencing the underwater world up close was fantastic. So many colorful fish and Nemo was there too (that was the absolute highlight for me). The guides were super friendly (Minnie and her team were very helpful and nice). I had my GoPro with me and since we were wearing life jackets our guide dived down to the bottom a few times and took videos up close. On the boat there was coffee with cake, drinks and even fresh fruit. At the end there was even dinner on the pier. I can only recommend this tour to everyone. An unforgettable day. Thank you!!!

Absolutely fantastic trip, a must do! We did the similan islands a few days ago and had a great time but a guide on a different day recommended the surin islands for great snorkelling and my goodness was he right! There were way less people on this tour, the journey was much less bumpy, Tarn our guide was great and super friendly. The islands are just incredible, beyond stunning. The snorkelling is top tier. We spotted monitor lizards and flying lemurs! I would 100% recommend this trip, if you want pristine beaches and don't mind crowds go to the Similans, if you want a bit more space and some amazing snorkelling, take this trip to the Surin islands

it was a great experience, we really enjoyed every part of it. the guides were great! we were not prepared that we would need 600 baht per person as a deposit for the flippers, we thought all the snorkeling equipment would be on the boat. we barely had enough money with us for them and could not buy anything from the island. the lunch was cold and therefore a disappointment.

The guide and crew were very friendly. However, I would have liked the boat to go slower. Thanks again for this wonderful day.

Well organized. Sweet tour guide Minnie and her team who take good care of you! Beautiful snorkeling! Highly recommended!
