Discover Koh Tao & Koh Nang Yuan: Speedboat Day Trip

A Day in a Tropical Paradise

Embark on a full-day island-hopping adventure from Koh Samui to two of the most iconic islands in the Gulf of Thailand: Koh Nang Yuan and Koh Tao. This tour is perfect for travelers who dream of swimming in crystal-clear waters, relaxing on white-sand beaches, and discovering the vibrant marine life of Thailand.

After an early hotel pickup, you'll travel by speedboat, allowing you to reach these island paradises quickly and comfortably. The journey itself is stunning, with panoramic views of the open sea and scattered islets.

Koh Nang Yuan – Beauty Beyond Imagination

Your first destination is the unique Koh Nang Yuan, a private island made up of three small islets connected by a natural sandbar. This rare geological formation creates one of the most photogenic landscapes in all of Thailand.

Here, you can:

Snorkel in clear, shallow waters full of colorful reef fish
Hike to the viewpoint for a breathtaking panoramic view of the three islets
Relax on the beach, sunbathe, or swim in tranquil lagoons

Note: Koh Nang Yuan has a strong eco-preservation policy—no plastic bottles are allowed on the island, and fins are not permitted during snorkeling to protect the coral reefs.

Koh Tao – The Island of Turtles

After your time on Koh Nang Yuan, the boat heads to nearby Koh Tao, which means “Turtle Island” in Thai. It is world-famous for its exceptional snorkeling and dive spots, coral reefs, and laid-back island charm.

You’ll enjoy a delicious Thai buffet lunch at a local beachfront restaurant on Koh Tao before heading out for more exploration.

Snorkeling stops will include:

Ao Muang (Mango Bay): A sheltered bay with calm waters and an abundance of coral gardens
Hin Wong or Ta Toh Bay: Prime spots for spotting angelfish, parrotfish, and other tropical species in their natural habitat

This part of the day is perfect for marine life enthusiasts and nature lovers who want to experience the underwater world up close.

Return to Koh Samui

After a full day of swimming, snorkeling, and exploring, you'll cruise back to Koh Samui in the late afternoon. This tour is ideal for those who want to experience two of Thailand’s most iconic islands in one seamless, comfortable, and well-organized day.
