The next stop is at the stunning Aow Leuk Bay which is named for its deep, concave shape as well as the depth of the water which makes it good for snorkelling even at very low tide. With the white sandy beach, a coral reef on both sides of the bay and the water varying shades of blue, Aow Leuk is one of the most popular sites for snorkelling.

Stop At: Shark Bay, South East of Ko Tao, Koh Tao Thailand
On the way to Shark Bay you will pass by Buddha Rock, a group of boulders creating an almost human-like shape and resembles a male in a sitting position. Hin Yaai Mae is the female. Both are believed to be ‘spirit rocks’ and are treated with respect by the local population.
Shark Bay is a private bay with a beautiful beach of fine white sand, shaded by tall coconut trees and Pemphis Acidula. It's a quiet place to come and relax, and got its name from the blacktip reef sharks that frequent here.

Unbelievable experience. Once in a lifetime… definitely worth spending a bit extra for the premium tour. Auyo and Quin were unreal guides throughout the day. Very well run tour.

Great hosts, nice clean well set up boat and good food. Couldn't do anything more for you, didn't take a blase approach to safety and felt was in good hands all along the way. Saw a sea turtle on the way back which was an added bonus, kudos to these guys and their skipper.

Schöne Zeit, die Anzahl war super. Ein kleines süßes Boot und die Tour war gut geplant. Essen auch schön angerichtet. Buchten und was wir sehen konnten einfach genial. Schildkröte und Baby-Haie. War ein. Erlebnis und das Geld definitiv wert!
