Itinerary
From Thailand, Asia to Thailand, Koh Samui, Ko Samui - Thailand
Check-in at base, and embarking at 17.00 (5pm), & depart to the first overnight anchorage at Koh Tean, on the southern side of the island. It’s a popular beach for day tours and more quiet at night, with lush vegetation and mangrove forest covering the island. A perfect first night anchorage to disconnect. Although popular with day tours from Tong Krut beach on Samui the island's many trails are overgrown. There is still plenty to see ashore, walking through the mangrove forest, exploring the m a n y c a v e s o r snorkeling on the reef that surrounds the island. Legend has it any dogs put on the island will go mad within 24 hours due to the noise of the thousands of large fruit bats that take to the skies at dusk everyday. In the morning do some diving or go see the lovely beaches on the west side of the island before departing to the next anchorage.
After a morning swim on Koh Team lovely beaches, we’ll sail towards Koh Phalui: this large island, 5 miles south of Ang Thong Park, is administered by the park wardens. The entire east coast is given over to bird’s nest collection and no anchoring is allowed. However on the north coast is a beautiful beach well sheltered from the south and west. Spending the first day having lunch at Koh Phaluai and enjoying swimming or watersports on board (snorkeling, paddle & kayak) then heading over to Ang Thong national park for overnight anchorage in this beautiful untouched nature surrounding.
Today, we’ll head towards Koh Sam Sao & Koh Thai Phlao for lunch stop & exploration between islands. While it cannot be guaranteed, there has been numerous sightings of whale sharks and river dolphin pods in this area. At Koh Sam Sao there is a stone bridge with a natural feature linking two rocks, big enough to dinghy under. Across from the stone bridge are two small islands connected (usually) by a sandbar. You’ll find good snorkeling and your own private beach (at least for a while). Ashore is a short trail leading up to a viewpoint. Koh Thai Phlao & Koh Nai Put is a collection of small islands closely grouped together located in the northern end of the national park. This is a great area to explore by SUP or kayak with places There are several small hongs dotted around the islands, on the east side of the northern island is one big enough to enter at mid-tide. We’ll end the day at Koh Nai Put, our overnight anchorage.
After lunch, we’ll sail towards Koh Tao, a small granitic island north of this area, well-known for its crystal-clear waters. Our first overnight stay will at Mango Bay, the only inhabited bay on the north coast of Koh Tao. While busy speed and dive boats during the day, it is a tranquil paradise early morning and later afternoon/ evening, with pristine coral and great snorkeling.
We’ll take the whole day to explore the beaches, corals & reefs alongside the eastern side of Koh Tao. Take advantage of watersports on board (paddle, kayak & snorkeling). For overnight anchorage, we’ll head after 3pm towards Shark Island, when local dive boats head away and crowds disperse. This anchorage offers crystal clear sheltered wards and fantastic coral formations
We’ll sail today towards Koh Pha Ngan. While well-known for its monthly full moon party towards its southeastern peninsulan Koh Pha Ngan north costs offers quieter and white-sand beaches including Ao Thonh Nai Pan and Bottle Beach, an ideal stopover when sailing from Koh Tao. Bottle Beach, our overnight anchorage, is only accessible by boat or serious hiking. It’s a pretty little bay with few small resorts, coconut tree plantation and jungle.
