In the past few years, in addition to divers, more and more tourists have come to Koh Tao to explore the island’s unspoiled beauty. Therefore, to meet the needs of tourists, every year a series of resorts and small villas spring up.

Viewpoints

Love Koh Tao | koh tao blog
  • Love Koh Tao
  • Koh Tao Viewpoint: Entrance fee 100Bath. In my opinion, there is no need to visit this place if you have visited Love Koh Tao and West Coast Viewpoint, because the view here is not as beautiful.
  • West Coast viewpoint: Entrance fee 100Bath. I really like this place. Just walk 5 minutes from the motorbike parking place to the viewpoint.
  • John Suwan viewpoint: Entrance fee 50Bath.
  • Mango Viewpoint: One of the most popular activities in Koh Tao is conquering Mango Viewpoint. The route to conquer is quite complicated. But once you reach the peak, you will find that your efforts are not wasted because of the beautiful scenery that this place possesses. There is also a small bar for you to sip something. And if you find climbing too dangerous, you can also switch to conquering John-Suwan Viewpoint. A route that is less dangerous but still feels equally great.

Watching the sea of Koh Tao by surfing on the water (Stand Up Paddle Board – SUP) couldn’t be more interesting. Going down to Maya Beach club, this is the main place for you to do SUP sailing through the coral rich areas, you can look down to the seabed because the water here is so clear.

Nightlife

| koh tao travel guide

If you expect the nightlife here to be as bustling as Koh Phangan, we’re afraid you’ll be disappointed. But saying that does not mean that Koh Tao has no activities at night. In fact, there are still bars open until late at night so you can sip cocktails while watching the sunset on the beach. For example, at Sairee beach, which has the most bars in Koh Tao.

Where to stay?

Prices in Koh Tao will normally be a bit higher than in other areas of Thailand. Main activities on the island are usually centered around three main areas. They are: Sairee Beach, Mae Haad, and Chalok Ban Khao. You can find hostels or hotels in the pier area for convenient traveling.

This island is famous for its activities with the sea so it will not be difficult at all when you want to joining a diving course, or a stimulating and exciting scuba diving trip, the most exciting, the most special, just available in Koh Tao.

Day 4: Koh Nang Yuan

You can take a taxi to Koh Nang Yuan, the pace of life here is quite late due to the long nightlife activities. The most ideal departure time for you is around 8:30am, at this time the sun has just risen, not too harsh, you will not need to face and imagine skin problems, however, apply a little more sunscreen is still good choice. You travel by taxi for about 300 baht for 1 person, 2 ways to and from Sairee Beach – Koh Nang Yuan. Use your ability to negotiate with the driver to help you return directly from Lomprayah ferry pier, instead of returning to Sairee Beach to avoid having to take more taxis and spend more money.

  • In addition, hats and umbrellas are two essential items for your trip.
  • If you have a lot of time, avoid going in the rainy season. Because of the rainy season on the islands, most of the services are closed and it is also very dangerous for you.
  • If you still want to go in the rainy season, bring equipment as well as quick-drying clothes.
  • Do not arbitrarily surf alone if you are not professional. You can contact local residents or the government to book services.
  • Services such as climbing, hiking through the forest should be booked through tour operators to have guides support.
