Good to know
Trips run daily; book by 18:00 the day before at the latest with our partner, meaning at least 48 hours ahead with us. Snorkellers share the boat with divers. The Samae San Marine Park fee (200 THB, cash only) applies only if the trip goes there. The sea is diveable all year round, with the best conditions from October to March.
Before you go
Good to know
Prone to seasickness?
Take a tablet ~30 min before departure, sit mid-boat, keep your eyes on the horizon and avoid heading out on an empty stomach.
Beat the crowds
Iconic spots like Maya Bay are far calmer early in the day. Our morning departures get you there before the midday ferry rush.
National park fees
Some sites sit inside a national park, so an entrance fee may apply. Check the “Not included” list above so there are no surprises.
Sun & reef care
The tropical sun is strong, bring a hat, sunglasses and plenty of water. Reef-safe sunscreen is required in Thai marine parks.
What to pack
Swimwear under your clothes, a towel, a dry bag for your phone, and a change of clothes for the trip back.
