Koh Pha Ngan
is
the nearest island to Samui.
Boats can be readily hired for the trip. The beaches are good
and there are also several scenic waterfalls ,but while there
is some budget accommodation, the island is much less
developed than Samui. Close by and accessible on day trips by
boat are two other smaller, uninhabited islands where
beautiful bays with colorful coral formations offer excellent
conditions for snorkeling
A more adventurous
full-day
excursion can be made to Ang Thong Marine Park, a group of 40
islands northwest of Samui. Here you will see spectacular
limestone formations, caves, blue lagoons and amazingly
beautiful beaches. At Ko Wua Ta Lap, where the park
headquarters are located, there are bungalows for rent. Organized daily tours to Ang Thong are available from travel
agents in Na Thon, on Samui.
