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

A fantastic day on the water with a lot of unique experiences. The crew were very friendly and extremely helpful and there was a good mood of coziness. The guide was good at explaining everything down to the smallest detail in a fun and humorous way. He managed the activities with great patience and expertise and one felt in safe hands. The catering was at the top with more options and you didn’t go hungry or thirsty. This boat trip is really worth recommending, is all worth the money and would not have been the one besides.

Had an absolute blast on the Red Dragon with 16 friends. The boat itself was in tip top condition with it's layout and amenities providing a really relaxing and fun experience. The crew was 10/10, especially the skipper, shared many laughs all the while being exceptionally competent and professional. Transport to and from the jetty was timely and comfortable. Would highly recommend.

This was the best part of our trip. I can’t explain how helpful the staff was, and how amazing the day was. We rented the boat with our family, and the children absolutely loved it. The boats crew was amazing and the food was even better. It is a memorable experience, and if you go out on a boat these are the people you want to go with. Fluke was incredible and so chill. Go chasing that Red Dragon. You won’t regret it and this is the company to book with.

Wow, this was the most unbelievable day with our friends and family. The boat was spacious with lots of shade (important as we had two little ones under 2 years old with us). The food was delicious. The service was outstanding, Earth and the rest of the team could not do enough for you! I only wish the trip could have lasted longer as I didn’t want it to end. We will be back next time we are in Koh Samui!

We spent a fabulous day with Earth (Guide) and the Ship Crew on board the Red Dragon. From the pick-up at the hotel, to getting us familiar with everything on the ship and having a quite great lunch, everybody did everything to make our day special. We had a little baby with us and due to the fact that the ship has plenty of opportunities to be in the shade, we were all totally comfortable during the whole stay.

We had an awesome day yesterday on the Red Dragon for snorkelling and lunch. There were ten of us, two families including 6 kids between 8 and 17. We all loved it. The boat was bigger than we'd expected, which just meant more room to lie out and relax while we went from one spot to the next. Where usually these tours are by speed boat, this is a way more comfortable ride if you're as interested in the journey as you are in the destination. We stopped to snorkel for about an hour and the water was clear, clean and fish were everywhere. Our guide, who spoke great english and prepped the kids for the fish to lookout for, took us swimming across the reef for about 30-45 minutes, pointing out everything along the way. After snorkelling, we went to see the pigs on the island (the puppies were very cute too), but only spent about 30 minutes before we decided we wanted back on the boat for lunch. Lunch was terrific! Fish, chicken, fried rice, curry, ice cream - every one of us couldn't believe all that had been cooked right on board, but it was! The entire staff was terrific. From the driver who picked us up, the cook, to the lead guide and the crew that made it such a wonderful experience that we will never forget.
