Calm-sea days; full-day trip only
Mu Ko Ang Thong is a protected archipelago of 42 limestone islands rising from the sea northwest of Samui, the inspiration for the novel 'The Beach'. Full-day boat tours visit for snorkelling, kayaking among the cliffs and the climb to the viewpoint over the emerald saltwater lagoon on Ko Mae Ko. As a full-day boat trip it only works on a long port call - check the return time carefully against your all-aboard.
Getting there from the port
