Itinerary

Pass by

Discover some of Samui’s secrets that have remained hidden for generations. The Five Islands hold a mysterious and rarely seen phenomenon: the harvesting of bird nests, or as the locals call it, “White Gold”.

Pass by

On your voyage, you will see caves, beaches, and bamboo dwellings precariously hanging off of limestone cliffs.

Pass by

The last island in the group is the most scenic one, comprising of two steep limestone mountains and a valley in between with pristine beach in between.

60 min

Arrive at the Koh Taen snorkeling site. Take pleasure in the colorful tropical reef, guided by our professional snorkeling leader. Alternatively, simply relax onboard our floating lounge above the reef or chill in the onboard jacuzzi or the sun deck. The marine life at Koh Taen is as abundant as at Koh Tao but visibility can vary from 1 to 10 meters. Unlike Koh Tao, the snorkeling sites are not very busy.

60 min

Transfer aboard our dinghy or kayak to the stunning Pig Island where you can play and feed the lovely wild pigs, relax and sunbathe, take a leisurely stroll along the beach. Subject to the weather, we may opt to visit instead Koh Taen's secret beach and you may go for an optional guided sea kayak adventure to explore Koh Taen's mangrove forest.

Pass by

On the way back to Koh Samui, we will cruise around the coastline of the islands where the views are truly spectacular. Fresh fruits and drinks will be served on board as you simply be, take in the sights and relax.

Private Blue Dragon yacht trip

We're a group of 8 friends travelling on Celebrity Solstice and booked a half day private tour on the beautiful Blue Dragon. We spent the morning snorkeling and then were taken to a beautiful secluded bay, all to ourselves - heaven!! It was an exceptional tour, the whole team were amazing. This trip was voted by the group as our favourite chilled out day of the entire holiday, thank you!

Wonderful half-day private tour

The trip was wonderful start to finish. The crew gave an overview of the day and were able to tailor it to what we wanted to do, the snorkeling was amazing with the guide making sure we saw as much as we could, and the lunch was delicious. All in all an experience I'd recommend, great value for a whole boat for just your party.

Outstanding

Highly recommend this tour. Two and the crew made sure our day was incredible. Lunch was delicious. Two snorkelled with us to make sure we didn’t miss anything and also helped those of us not so confident in the ocean. This made the experience all the more enjoyable.

Highly recommend this great tour. The crew were all amazing. We felt like kings and queens. Our boat guide Two bent over backwards to make sure our experience was incredible.

Experience exceeded expectations

My family really enjoyed our time as a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids) on the private half-day tour. It was really lovely to have the whole boat to ourselves, and the crew took fantastic care of us, especially our littlest - a very active 4-year old! From entertaining him with board games and the jacuzzi / mini-pool on board, to ensuring he had a good first time snorkeling - many thanks for our guide! Lunch was delicious, particularly the deep fried fish - so yummy! An additional touch that I thought was really nice - you are able to play your choice of music on board by connecting the yatch's sound system to your phone's bluetooth.
