Koh Tao Thailand

The small island of Koh Tao is located just north of Koh Samui and Koh Phangan, and can be easily reached via a public ferry crossing. Flights to Koh Samui are available from Bangkok, Chiang Mai, U-Thapao / Pattaya, Phuket, Krabi, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore and Hong Kong. Depending on the timetable, you may need an overnight stay on Koh Samui (transfer details can be found at the respective hotel). Koh Tao is considered an Eldorado for divers and snorkelers due to the clear water and the diversified underwater world. But also individualists, "island collectors" and beach enthusiasts have written themselves Koh Tao on their flag. The island of Nang Yuan, on the northwest tip of Koh Tao, is a busy excursion, but Koh Tao itself is spared. A fortified road leads from the Mae Haad Bay main ferry to the south to Chalok Baan Kao, to the north it ends in Sairee (other bays can be quite adventurous, prefer a longtail boat). In Mae Haad, the island's capital, there is a considerable number of restaurants, hang-out spots, mini-bars and shops. The service in the hotels is not quite on the booth of Koh Samui, which is often Burmese staff but very friendly. The main event is short and violent, falling into the months of November and December (not recommended).
