Worth the $, you will not be disapointed - Amazing snorkeling/dive team! Very easy to book direct via email. Fantastic experience from wonderful team - Apple, Sam, Cara and snorkel guide Cola - plus the rest of the team. Very knowledgeable about the fish and sea life, pointing out lots of interesting things. Very high quality boat (lots of space and shade) including all day soft drinks and water, snacks, lunch, snorkel equipment (high quality gear) and entry fees. While not a cheap trip compared to others it’s well worth paying for this very small (max 12 people) on a great boat and crew. Took us to places with few or no other boats meaning lots of time to enjoy the fish. Very short lunch stop meant lots of snorkeling time, rather than paying to sit on a beach. Added recommendation for this trip is the use of reusable bottles to help protect the world from more plastic. Definitely recommend choosing this day trip. I visited in low season and managed to book just a few days in advance, but in high season recommend you book early as they are very popular.

Friendly and knowledgeable diving company - I booked this experience in advance (from the UK via WhatsApp) so I could coordinate my travel plans ahead. The booking experience was very friendly and seamless for overseas customer. Cara has been especially helpful and attentive when it comes to answering all my questions (small or big), and able to provide great response to them! A couple of days before the experience, Cara kept us informed with the weather conditions and making sure we filled up all the forms required for diving. On the day itself, we were picked up by a private vehicle just for the two of us from our hotel straight to the centre. (Sorry I forgot the driver name) Throughout the journey, the driver shared with us that he’s also a master diver himself and used to lead tours too with the same company, I’m impressed that they are so multi talented! After we arrived, we were greeted warmly by Cara at the door. She told us we were the only two divers of the day, the other 10 folks are here to snorkel. They kept it tight in a small group to ensure the best experience for everyone and they can dedicate enough people to look after the group. Ben, our diving instructor, was really fun, helpful and kind too! Since it’s my first time diving and I’m terrified of water, he made sure to be next to me all the time (like literally dragging me by my diving vest underneath the sea 🤣) to ensure my safety and that I can enjoy every single view. One of the diving spot he took us to was crowded with a school of fish too! (Forgot the name of the fish 😅) and wow it was an out of world experience for me! Even though my partner is at rescue diver level, Ben also ensure my partner has a safe diving experience by constantly checking on him to ensure he’s safe and comfortable diving in a different environment. Overall we did two diving (12m and 9m) and a snorkelling experience. We didn’t get to see sea turtles or sharks but we get to see a lot more other types of fishes closed up that we wouldn’t be able to see if we were snorkelling such as experiencing two big schools of fish! Mid journey, we were also served with home cooked dishes and they were good! As we returned back to Koh Samui, we see Cara again on the beach, patiently waiting for our return. In summary, the hosting experience from Cara, Ben, the driver and the entire crew members were just amazing and friendly. We can’t wait to book another trip again with them next year when we return!

Awesome - We did a tour to Koh Tao on day 1 and a tour to Ang Thong National Park on day 2. The team is really incredibly helpful. They think of everything. The team does their best to be at the best location(s) at the right times to avoid other tours as well. Personally, I really liked that there are enough staff to form smaller groups for diving/snorkeling. An extra plus for the fact that the team takes videos and photos (also underwater) with our cameras.

Relaxing scuba at Koh Tao - I had a wonderful day diving at these beatiful sites. The crew was amazing and made the experience hassle-free and very enjoyable. Water, lunch and fruit snacks were provided so I didn’t have to bring anything else. The stop for lunch included a little time to relax between dives at beautiful Mango Bay. The diving equipment was impeccable and the crew were very safety-conscious as the wind picked up when it was time to get back on the boat. The dive itself was a very relaxing stroll through the coral gardens. I wasn’t lucky enough to see a turtle but still dive master Ben pointed out some creatures that are only found in this area.

A superb snorkelling experience - We were recommended by a friend to try snorkelling on our honeymoon and put us in touch with these guys. What a recommendation.. an absolute fantastic company who are professional knowledgeable but most important down to earth amazing and extremely funny. Everything is catered for here. Food drink towels transport is arranged for collection and return to our hotel what more could you ask for..! Well the snorkelling is amazing these guys know the best spots away from the major tourist areas and whilst they show you the reefs and fish and everything else down below the will explain what we have seen. Lisa and I had a great time and cannot recommend this company and staff enough. Absolutely brilliant, thanks for a great day

Wonderful Snorkelling Experience on Koh Tao - Our second outing with 100 Degrees East this holiday.This superb company manages to be excellent in every aspect - efficient, friendly and each member of Cara's team helped to make this a memorable day. The equipment was of the highest quality and fitted us so well. I had taken my own mask but their's fitted even better! After a very comprehensive briefing at their relaxed offices, it was straight to the boat and off. The secluded first bay had only 2 other boats there. By the time we left, after a delicious home cooked Thai lunch, I could count 18! This company plans the day to provide the best for its customers. Another snorkelling event in crystal clear water was ended with cannon balling (jumping or diving off the bow of the boat). It was such fun that even a 5 year old was happy to jump to their parent in the water. All the crew were attentive to our needs throughout the day. Fantastic fun with a company which pays attention to all the details which matter.

100% 'Great' Family Experience - New Zealand - Mum, Dad, and 3 x daughters (22, 17 & 24) From start to finish, the entire experience was Top Notch. Boat in immaculate condition. Kiwi Ben, with his multiple accents, was down to earth yet very professional. You conduct a great experience, Mate, great knowledge and banter!! Thai Chad is also a top guide, filling up our water bottles (which is massive), great knowledge, and lovely dude. Thai food lunch was flavourful, real yummy plus filling. Water and fizzies are all supplied. Captain Mee is also a top bloke, minimal English, but hey, I have below par Thai, Mee smiled the whole trip, thanks, mate. Was impressed with the getting on and off the boat, i.e., assisting all, washing of jandals so boat didn't get sand all through it. Hosing us all down (as we exited the sea) with fresh water from the snorkel - we all know what it's like sitting around in heat with salt water on you, another prime example of a well thought out experience. The day was well spaced out for each of the snorkeling, kayaking, and walk to the emerald lake. There was 6 x crew to attend to us punters. Must also mention the very lovely Burma dudes, great talking to you Brothers!! Should you book this experience? 100% YES We'll be back in next couple of years, and 4 sure!!

A great day out for a family ! - We decided to take a Sunday out with the family ( 2 kids, 7 and 14) and off Samui for the day after a busy Songkran day. We were so pleased with our decision. The day was superb! The team are totally professional as well as friendly. The briefed us all on the safety on the boat and our day ahead and soon after we were on our way. Everything was taken care of for us, towels, equipment and our own guide to point out what we needed to see. Koh Tao is beautiful and in all of our stops we were able to see lots of sealift including sea turtles and a sting ray. The lunch they provided was really tasty and mostly plant based with one meat option. The trip was really fantastic. We absolutely loved it and so did the kids. Many thanks to Cara, Roon and the whole team for everything 🙏

My second trip out with this incredible team - Another incredible day out with 100 Degrees East, this time for a resort dive with Roon and dive master Ben. Again, the most amazing crew, fellow tourists and experience. For anyone looking for an adventure day out in Koh Samui, we cannot sing the praises of these guys enough. So professional, welcoming, obliging and efficient. They really have perfected the day trip! The first time, on all the snorkeling trips we've done that I've felt safe enough to try scuba diving. Thank you, Cara, Roon and team! You guys rock.
