Guide was amazing helped us get footage and photos and very easy to understand, well structured good snorkeling trip would reccomend

Great day out! We had 3 swimming stops. First two stops were 40 minutes Koh Tao and then 1 hour and 40 minuted in Nang Yuan Island. A lot of fish to see. The staff was really pleasant and really tentative, giving us tips on where to snorkel. The snorkels were great and had shampoo on the lenses before they gave them to us, so a great attention to hygiene by the staff too. The food was great too. Overall, a fantastic day out!

Full description

Spend an unforgettable day exploring the stunning islands of Koh Tao and Koh Nang Yuan. Snorkel in vibrant coral reefs, relax on pristine beaches, enjoy a delicious Thai buffet lunch, and take in breathtaking views from a scenic viewpoint. This all-inclusive day trip from Koh Samui offers a perfect combination of adventure and relaxation.

Begin your day with a convenient hotel pickup at around 8:00 AM in an air-conditioned minivan. After a light breakfast snack at Bophut Pier, board a comfortable speedboat for an exciting 90-minute ride across the Gulf of Thailand, taking in the picturesque views of Koh Samui and Koh Phangan.

Upon arrival at Koh Tao, prepare for an unforgettable snorkeling experience at one of the island’s top spots—Mango Bay, Hin Wong Bay, or Lighthouse Bay—We'll choose the perfect spot based on the weather and season. Dive into the crystal-clear waters and explore vibrant coral reefs teeming with tropical fish.

After your snorkeling adventure, head ashore for a delicious Thai buffet lunch at a local restaurant on Koh Tao. Enjoy traditional dishes like Pad Thai, curry, and fresh seafood, with Halal options available.

Next, cruise to the neighboring island of Koh Nang Yuan, known for its white sandy beaches and stunning viewpoints. Climb to the top for panoramic views of the surrounding islands, or relax on the beach and soak up the sun. Don’t miss snorkeling at the famous Japanese Garden, a shallow reef brimming with colorful marine life.

At around 3 PM, board the speedboat for a scenic return journey to Koh Samui. Keep an eye out for flying fish or simply relax on the boat's shaded seating area. Arrive back at Bophut Pier, where your driver will transfer you back to your hotel, wrapping up an incredible day by 5 PM.

The boat ride was rough due to change of weather which made the ride uncomfortable. The skill of the captain was exceptional and the boat staff went over and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable and ok. It was a good trip and again thank you to all the staff.
