What to expect
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: SeaStar Andaman - Day Tours, 112/151 Udomsuk Village, Pa Khlok, Phuket 83110 Thailand
Get conveniently picked up in the early morning by minivan from your hotel on the entire Phuket Island and head over to Nam Khem Pier in Khao Lak. Meet the passionated boat crew of SeaStar Andaman and enjoy a light breakfast before cruising by speed boat in less than 90 minutes to the unspoiled Surin Islands. Mu Koh Surin National Park is situated in Phang Nga province, roughly 60 kilometres away from the shore.
Make the first snorkel stop in Chong Khat Bay which is located between the two main Surin Islands. At low tides it is actually possible to walk across, as the water is extremely shallow. Our guides will explain you how to protect and conserve coral reefs through environmentally friendly guidelines of Green Fins for your snorkelling experience.
Continue to Koh Surin Tai (the Southern Surin Island) to discover the natural way of life of the 150 Moken sea gypsies. The Chao Leh, which means 'The Sea People' in Thai, spend much of their lives on their boats, called 'kabang'. The Moken survive mainly through fish hunting and gathering of shellfish and other marine life from the reefs and mudflats.
At Mai Ngam Beach you can enjoy the beach life or do some walking along the 2-kilometre hiking trail. Then indulge in a delectable buffet lunch in the canteen of the park ranger station to fuel your energy for the next snorkelling sessions.
Make your way to Bon Bay or Pineapple Bay (depending on the sea conditions) where you can swim on vibrant coral reefs and spot colourful fish hovering around their natural habitats in calm waters. The last snorkel stop will be at Mae Yai Bay with a jump into the clean and clear turquoise waters brimming with magnificent underwater aqua life.
After a lovely time, it is time to say goodbye to Surin Islands and to return to the pier in Khao Lak. Enjoy some sweets and coffee before returning to your accommodation in Phuket with happy smiles and an amazing story to tell your friends.

Très bonne expérience, l’excursion est très très bien organisée : bateau propre, consignes claires, matériel fourni (serviette, masque et tuba). En ce qui concerne les repas : petit déjeuner, repas, goûter, repas d’arrivée, fruits, gâteaux, glaces, eau et pepsi à volonté, on ne manque de rien pendant ce tour !! L’organisation est stricte mais très professionnelle, vous pouvez y aller et vous laisser guider les yeux fermés ! Les îles Surin ne sont pas les plus paradisiaques en revanche le spot de snorkeling est à ne pas manquer, exceptionnelle ! Même les débutants peuvent profiter d’une faune marine accessible nombreuse et variée ! Merci pour tout !
