Snorkel Trip to the Island Paradise of Koh Lipe by Speed Boat from Pakbara Pier
1 day
About this activity
Meet the boat crew of Satun Pakbara Speed Boat Club at Satun Pakbara Pier 30 minutes before scheduled departure. First you will get snorkelling and safety instructions from your guide.
Cruise on board the convenient speed boat to Koh Lipe with a first stop at the famous rock arch 'Forever Love' on Koh Khai. Here is also a nice sandy beach and some interesting outcroppings of rocks on the western tip of the island.
Continue to Koh Jabang which is a famous snorkelling spot located between Koh Adang and Rawi Island. It’s surrounded by pink soft coral, lavender soft coral, red soft coral with the arrange shade of colors. Here you can spot beautiful fish which live in the coral reef. All necessary snorkel equipment is provided. As the tide is quite strong, it is required that you can swim and that you follow the instructions from the staff.
The next stop will be at the white sand beaches of Koh Rawi where you will enjoy a delicious Thai lunch and have some time to relax under the refreshing palm shadows.
It takes around 15 minutes to reach the next destination of this tour, Koh Hin Ngam. It is a small island which appears to be black from a distance, but actually only the stones at the beach are coloured in black. There is a saying that if someone takes a stone from the island, he/she will have a miserable life.
Make a last snorkel stop at Koh Yang on a beautiful hard coral reef in the shallows and big boulders overgrown with fantastic soft corals at depth.
Before returning back to Pakbara Pier, you will have time to relax and swim at Pattaya Beach on Koh Lipe, the most southerly beach on Thailand’s Andaman coast.
