Snorkel and Kayak Trip to Angthong Marine Park by Speed Boat from Koh Phangan

Spend a full day in the emerald jewel of Thailand on a speed tour to Angthong Marine Park from Koh Phangan. Start the trip with a light breakfast at Thong Sala Pier and cruise by speed boat operated by Lomlahk Khirin in 45 minutes through the archipelago with 42 islands. Enjoy the rest of your day snorkeling and kayaking in the idyllic oasis of the park and hike up to the top of Koh Mae Ko Island for an amazing view of the stunning saltwater lagoon.

Start the trip with a pickup from your hotel on Koh Phangan by air-conditioned minivan. Meet the boat crew of Lomlahk Khirin at Thong Sala Pier and get safety instructions and information about the trip. After enjoying a light breakfast, cruise by speed boat through the Gulf of Thailand to the breathtaking beauty of Ang Thong Marine National Park.

Arrive at the first spot where you can snorkel under huge limestone cliffs through crystal blue waters along the coastline. Continue to Mae Koh Island and start paddling with a sit-on-top kayak along the coastline of the island. At mid-day, enjoy a delicious Thai buffet lunch near the Marine Park ranger station. Spend the afternoon sunbathing, swimming, snorkeling or simply relaxing on the endless white sand beaches of the island.

The next stop will be just a few minutes further by speed boat where you can climb the steps to the top of the island in approximately 10 minutes and enjoy a fantastic view over the Emerald Lagoon which is also known as 'Talay Nai'. The salt water lake is surrounded by sheer cliffs and is definitely the highlight of this tour.

The hours passed quickly without noticing, and it's already time to leave this wonderful place. Arrive back at Thong Sala Pier and get transferred to your hotel where can look back on your day in the enchanting still of the evening.

The archipelago of 42 islands occupies almost 250 square kilometers and includes over 50 square kilometers of surreal limestone islands and karst topography, which rise from the sea as dramatic rock cliffs and captivating rock formations.
