• SeaStar Andaman - Day Tours - Begin your adventure with a convenient early morning minivan pickup from your hotel anywhere on Phuket Island, heading to Nam Khem Pier in Khao Lak. Meet the enthusiastic SeaStar Andaman boat crew and enjoy a light breakfast before embarking on a speedboat journey to the pristine Surin Islands in under 90 minutes. Mu Koh Surin National Park is located in Phang Nga province, approximately 60 kilometers offshore.

The first snorkeling stop is at Chong Khat Bay, nestled between the two main Surin Islands. During low tide, you can walk across the shallow waters. Guides will provide insights on protecting and conserving coral reefs using Green Fins’ eco-friendly snorkeling guidelines.

Proceed to Koh Surin Tai (the Southern Surin Island) to explore the traditional lifestyle of the 150 Moken sea gypsies. Known as ‘The Sea People’ or Chao Leh in Thai, they spend much of their lives on their boats, called ‘kabang’. The Moken primarily sustain themselves through fishing and gathering shellfish and other marine life from the reefs and mudflats.

At Mai Ngam Beach, enjoy beach activities or take a stroll along the 2-kilometer hiking trail. Relish a delicious buffet lunch at the park ranger station canteen to recharge for more snorkeling adventures.

Head to Bon Bay or Pineapple Bay (depending on sea conditions) to swim among vibrant coral reefs and observe colorful fish in their natural habitats in tranquil waters. The final snorkeling stop is at Mae Yai Bay, where you can dive into the clear turquoise waters teeming with stunning underwater life.

After a delightful day, bid farewell to the Surin Islands and return to the pier in Khao Lak. Enjoy some sweets and coffee before heading back to your accommodation in Phuket, leaving with joyful memories and stories to share with friends.
