The Beginning of Your Adventure

Your tour starts early in the morning with a comfortable minivan transfer from your hotel to Thap Lamu Pier in Phang Nga. Once you arrive, you can meet your guide, enjoy a light snack, change clothes if needed and get ready for your journey across the Andaman Sea.

The first snorkeling stop is near Bangu Island (Ko Bangu), a location known for underwater caverns and impressive marine life. In 1989 Jacques Cousteau called the Similan coral reefs one of the most beautiful diving sites in the world. Here you may see whale sharks, reef sharks, rays, moray eels and angelfish.
