Important

  • Bring a beach/dry bag, swimwear, sunscreen, sun hat, sunglasses, flip flops, a camera and cash.
  • To confirm your booking, please send us a copy of the passport ID page for all travelers. We must submit this information to the Thai Marine Department and to secure your travel insurance before the trip begins. Your information will be kept strictly confidential. Additionally, please remember to bring a digital photo or a copy of your passport with you on the trip.
  • During certain seasons, jellyfish may be present in the Andaman Sea, and contact can cause skin irritation or discomfort. To minimize the risk, we recommend wearing protective clothing such as watershoes and long swimwear when swimming.
  • Ensuring your safety is our top priority. To that end, we strongly recommend wearing a life jacket throughout the entire boat ride to the islands and while snorkeling.
  • Power catamarans navigate close to the shoreline, allowing passengers a convenient and effortless transition to the beach.
  • While flip-flops are convenient, water shoes offer better protection against sharp objects like shells or rocks on the sand, and provide improved traction on wet surfaces.
  • Shorts are ideal as they dry quickly and allow for greater freedom of movement, especially if the water level reaches above your knees when getting on or off the boat.
  • Pregnant women are strictly prohibited from this tour. This activity is also not suitable for infants under 2 years, people over 75 years, or anyone with pre-existing conditions such as back or neck problems, high blood pressure, heart conditions, asthma, or orthopedic issues.
