The experience
The speed boat takes about 45 minutes to reach the park, weaving through 42 islands in the Gulf of Thailand. The first stop is Koh Wao, also called Koh Tay Plow, where the water is clear and blue and the scenery is beautiful. Slip into the sea with snorkeling gear and look down on plenty of fish and corals.
Next is Koh Mae Ko, where you hike to the top for a spectacular view over Talay Nai, an emerald saltwater lake linked to the sea by underwater caves. Seen from above, the lake is the color its name promises. Back down on the beach, a Thai buffet lunch is waiting, and after it the white sand invites you to stretch out in the sun or simply do nothing at all.
In the afternoon the day opens up. You can paddle a kayak around the caves and stunning rock formations of the park, or climb a mountain for a panoramic view across the islands. Either way, you finish with the boat heading back to Koh Samui later in the afternoon.
