Take a day trip from Samui to the idyllic island of Koh Nangyuan which sits only about half a kilometer from Koh Tao’s shoreline. It boasts a short hike up to the viewpoint, white sand beaches and amazing coral reefs. Stop for a scrumptious Thai style buffet lunch in the east of Koh Tao with romantic coves and a laid back neighbourly feel. Fill the afternoon with activities such as kayaking along the dramatic coastline with steep cliffs or cooling off in the amazing underwater world.
The friendly team of Insea Speedboat will pick you up directly from the hotel lobby on Koh Samui and bring you to the private pier at Bang Rak. Get helpful information from your guide and enjoy a light breakfast before heading by speedboat to Koh Nangyuan.
As you arrive at Koh Nangyuan, we recommend to immediately hike to the top of the spectacular viewpoint to avoid the crowds. It takes around 15 minutes to get to the top. Besides the viewpoint, you can spend time at the beach where a plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas are available to rent.
There are a few separate swimming areas on Koh Nangyuan - the Japanese Reef Garden is certainly one of the most impressive snorkel spot. The water is very shallow at the beginning with fine sand. After that it will be a little bit stony because the underground is full of corals, that’s why the water color is so beautiful.
Continue by speed boat to Koh Tao which is just half a kilometer from Nangyuan. Stop at a hidden cove in the east of Koh Tao and enjoy a scrumptious Thai style lunch at the beautiful ocean front restaurant.
Then it is time for paddling by kayak along the dramatic coastline with steep cliffs. For the more relaxed, cool off in the water and peer into the amazing underwater world from above. Make more snorkel stops at Mango Bay, Lighthouse Bay, Hin Wang Bay or Aow Leuk, and a last one at a secluded beach on Koh Phangan.
Remember to capture the memories of a life time by renting one of our underwater digital cameras.
