Description

Since coral bleaching has ruined the snorkelling in the Surins, we no longer recommend the snorkelling there, so this package now excludes snorkelling to the Surins. This package, our headline offering to snorkellers, now visits the following destinations: Ao Nang, Koh Lanta and Koh Lipe. These 3 destinations are currently the best snorkelling destinations on the Andaman coast.

If the following itinerary is too long or busy for you, contact us for a customised one.

This package covers ALL the best snorkelling sites in Thailand. Click here for details about the best snorkelling sites in Thailand.

 

To do this, we base you in 3 different destinations. The road transfers don't take long, and half of them are beautiful boat rides, and highly enjoyable parts of the itinerary.
No other tour company in Thailand combines these different destinations for you. We ensure that you snorkel not just the best sites in one area of the country, but all the best sites in the whole of Thailand.

Why snorkel just one part of Thailand, when with us you can snorkel the best sites in the entire country ?

Visitors who like an active holiday will love the almost non-stop snorkelling action included in this itinerary. Different travellers, however, like different amounts of activity on holiday. The itinerary is a fairly busy one and is maybe, for you, too busy.
We can cut out one of the destinations in order to give you more rest days - contact us for a customised itinerary. The only problem with cutting out a destination is in choosing which one you can bear to miss out on, not an easy choice when all 3 are superb, in their different ways. Contact us and we can discuss which three are best for you, and decide which you should skip.
The four destinations included in this itinerary are Ao Nang, Koh Lanta and Koh Lipe.
Your itinerary starts in bustling and yet still laid-back Ao Nang, from where you explore the great macro-snorkelling sites on the Ao Nang Phi Phi Islands Snorkelling trip.

Ao Nang is only 15 minutes away from Railay, which possesses maybe the most beautiful tropical beach seascape on the planet. If travel sense were legalised, it would be deemed a crime to stay in Ao Nang, and not visit Railay.

You have a day independantly exploring Railay, or alternatively and at extra cost you can take a guided tour around Railay, or choose from a wide range of alternative tours available from Ao Nang

A trip to gorgeous Koh Hong, with snorkelling, kayaking and swimming, is included next. This does not offer the best snorkelling in the region, but is not to be missed, for the jaw-dropping beauty of Koh Hong's beach and lagoon.

 

After Ao Nang you travel by boat across some of the prettiest reaches of the Andaman Sea, past Koh Phi Phi and then Koh Jum.

After a couple of hours you arrive on Koh Lanta, where you stay for 4 nights in order to cover the fabulous Koh Rok snorkelling, plus check out Koh Muk's amazing Emerald Cave, as part of the Koh Lanta 4 Island Trip.

 

Next you board the ferry again and slowly meander through the southern reaches of the Andaman Sea. Don't forget your sun-cream, as most people spend the entire time on deck, sun-bathing and marvelling at the stupendous scenery of karst rock-faces plunging vertiginously into the sea.
After 3 hours the almost impossibly beautiful island of Koh Lipe rears out of the sea in front of the boat.

Koh Lipe offers incredibly good snorkelling - arguably the best in Thailand at the moment (Koh Rok on Lanta also has a good claim to that distinction).

You take two snorkelling trips out to the islands and reefs around Lipe.

In order to make the 12-night package as affordable as possible we have included 3 star hotels in the price.
If you would like to book less expensive hotels, or more luxurious hotels, please contact us.
