Tour Description:
Start your tour in Khao Lak and visit Thailand's hidden gem, the Similan Islands. The name originates from the Malaysian word ‘Sembilan’ , which means nine. There are nine islands inside the Koh Similan National Park, this tour visits four of them, including Similan Island Number 8 where the famous sail rock viewpoint is located. Similan islands 1 to 3 are permanently closed to tourism, as there are protected Turtle species who lay eggs on these islands.
There is a high chance of seeing turtles in the Similan Islands, while snorkelling. However it is not something we can guarantee. Snorkelling is included in this tour.
The tour lasts for an entire day, and the travel to and from the Similan Islands is with Speedboat. Approximately 1.5 Hours each way by boat. A packed lunch is included, along with round trip hotel transfers, and the National Park Fee is included too, this means you save 500 Baht as there is no extra to be paid.
Tour times may vary slightly depending on the season, pickup times may or may not be factored into the advertised schedule and can vary based on your accommodation's location. The exact tour times will be confirmed via messaging app one day before the tour.
