What to expect
Start your day with a transfer by minivan in air-conditioned comfort to Thong Sala Pier in the west of Koh Phangan. After a light breakfast, take off your watch and escape to Koh Tao aboard the convenient speed boat.
The first stop will be at Lighthouse Bay, Mango Bay, Tanote Bay or Ao Hin Wong on Koh Tao, depending on the tides. Here you can snorkel on beautiful coral reefs in blue water and marvel at the sandbar beaches formed by the ocean's currents.
Continue to the private island of Koh Nangyuan which is actually made up of three little teardrops of land connected by a massive sandbar. It’s a place where post-card dreams are made: unique topography, blindingly white sand beaches, and shores teeming with fish and coral.
An authentic buffet style Thai lunch is served at the beachfront restaurant. Put on your sunblock before it's time to explore Koh Nangyuan itself which features a dive center and souvenir shop, as well as a breathtaking walk to the hilltop viewpoint in less than 15 minutes. Be sure to bring your cameras for this stunning scenery!
Enjoy a fun-filled day, with a choice of sunbathing, short nature trekking or snorkeling in shallow waters at Japanese Garden Reef with many friendly fish species. Soak up the tranquility of a unique destination, far from the stress of modern life, and unwind from your day-to-day worries. Shortly before 3pm it’s already time to return to Koh Phangan. You will be back at your hotel at approx. 4:30pm where you can let this exciting day pass in review.
