What to expect
Your exclusive snorkeling expedition begins with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Phuket, leading you directly to the private SeaStar Pier at Baan Nam Khem. From 8:00 AM, our team welcomes you for check-in, where you’ll receive your snorkeling equipment and towel, and enjoy a complimentary light breakfast of hot drinks (coffee, tea, Ovaltine) and fresh bakery items. At 9:00 AM, we board our high-speed vessel and set off on our voyage across the magnificent Andaman Sea, with a comfortable transfer time of approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes to the remote Surin Islands.
Upon arrival, your first aquatic paradise awaits: Snorkel Spot 1 at the tip of Ao Mai Ngam Cape. Dive into the crystal-clear waters for your initial session, discovering vibrant coral reefs and stunning marine life in this pristine ecosystem. Following your snorkel, we proceed to the breathtaking Mai Ngam Beach. This secluded 500-meter stretch of sand is the location for your delicious buffet lunch, served at the National Park’s canteen. After your meal, you’ll have free time to relax, stroll the beach, or simply soak up the island’s serenity.
The afternoon is dedicated entirely to maximizing your underwater time with two more essential dives. At 1:30 PM, we embark for Snorkel Spot 2 at Ao Suthep Nuea, jumping back into the water to admire more spectacular coral formations and a diverse range of tropical fish. Our final underwater highlight, Snorkel Spot 3 at Ao Suthep Tai, offers one last opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the clear waters of the Surin Archipelago, ensuring your "Masterpiece" journey concludes with a collection of unforgettable sights.
At 3:30 PM, we depart from the Surin Islands. Upon arrival back at the private SeaStar Pier at Baan Nam Khem around 5:00 PM, you will be treated to our signature grand welcome. Indulge in a variety of refreshing drinks, snacks, delicious Som Tam (spicy papaya salad), crispy fried chicken, and cooling ice cream. Afterwards, our team will safely transfer you back to your hotel, concluding your masterpiece journey.
