Tour Options
Itinerary
Get picked up either by speed boat directly from the hotel beach or by car from the lobby (depends on the location of the resort). Cruise on a modern speed boat from Koh Lanta towards Koh Rok in less than 1 hour with professional skipper and knowledgeable fluent English speaking tour guide. The new and spacious boat offers both outdoor and indoor saloons, clean toilet and is equipped with the latest safety and navigational equipment. All our crew are trained in first aid and CPR.
Make a first snorkel spot in the stunning lagoon of Koh Haa, made up of 6 rocky outcrops located half-way from Koh Lanta to Koh Rok.
Continue to Koh Rok which is protected as part of Mu Ko Lanta National Park. The twin islands are some of the most beautiful in Thailand’s Andaman Sea with brilliant white sand beaches, crystal turquoise waters, expansive coral reefs and metre-long land monitor lizards. The sister islands of Koh Rok consist of Koh Rok Nai (the 'inner' island which is closer to the mainland) and Koh Rok Nok (the 'outer' island). They are separated by a 250 m coral channel and much of the corals are not more than 5 metres under the surface and can be easily explored with a snorkel. We advise to bring your Go Pro or waterproof phone case to capture the amazing underwater scenes.
During the trip you will make several snorkel stops around Koh Rok and enjoy a delicious Thai lunch served on Koh Rok Nai. Spend leisure time strolling on the long white sandy beaches of Ao Man Sai, Laem Thong and Sarn Chao Beach. For the more sporty of you, follow the trail leading up to Pha Samed Daeng, a viewpoint affording sweeping northern vistas to Koh Ngai and Koh Lanta.

This was a great trip and a good way to experience two beautiful islands without too many people. The pick up was on time and simple, the crew were excellent, and the food at lunch was lovely. It was amazing to see so many different fish whilst snorkelling and the beaches were stunning. An all round great trip with a really good balance.
Wrong price quote, the offer says that the fee for the national park is included but when the tickets arrive, you have to pay for it. Otherwise a good experience
Ex snorkel trip. Very well organized with easy transportation. Guides were great. Food was great. Would highly recommend for a snorkel trip to Koh Rok and Koh Haa
Super nice trip to snorkel with very nice beaches and good lunches!
The third time I booked with Tin and unfortunately it was not as good as before. Overcrowded boat where some could not sit comfortably o safely. The food was not enough for everyone, otherwise it was free drink and fruit. It was a very windy day we went out and on Rok we got to board the boat on the other side of the island when it was not safe to go on the pontoon dock With the wind it was also difficult to snorkel on Haa with strong currents. Previously also staff have been there and dived o it has been safe Felt a little disappointed when I had previously had such positive tours but it felt that it was very buisness over it all.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for choosing to travel with us again. We truly appreciate your continued support. We are sorry to hear that this trip did not meet the same expectations as your previous experiences. Weather conditions on the day were quite windy, which unfortunately affected both the snorkeling conditions and the boarding arrangements. Please know that safety is always our top priority. We also appreciate your comments regarding the boat capacity and catering, and we will share your feedback with our team to help improve our service. We hope we will have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future and provide you with a better experience.
We went exactly the same tour two years ago and now it has unfortunately got worse. The boats have been rebuilt so they can take in even more travelers which made it very crowded. Some even had to sit without backrests on top of the cooler. More people seem to have found their way out to Koh Rok now that there were more people than last time. But just as beautiful now as it was two years ago. The food was good but unfortunately not enough so make sure not to end up in the back of the queue as we did. Very streamed water on koh haa. This led many to choose to stay on the boat. Very friendly and helpful staff.
An excursion to the top!!! Team Tim with little care!!!! Good coaching. I recommend this excursion for families, beautiful encounters and memories. THANK YOU
At first I thought this trip would be hectic because the amount of small children and what appeared to be an oversold tour. However it was very different. There was enough space on each boat without being packed in and the snorkling in each area was the perfect amount of time. On boat 7 our tour guide None was great and very entertaining making the experience a fun day out. The lunch although seemed simple was delicious and enough to go around, even having a second serve if you wanted. We were also provided fruits and cold drinks throughout the trip. Highly recommend this tour. Our hotel pick up and drop off was great too being collected and dropped back directly to our hotel was good after a long day and the taxis were also not jammed pack like some tours which was also a bonus
Directions from Koh Lanta to Koh Haa 45 minutes by big boat (80 people). Once there, there were 4 more boats of the same size. Then snorkel for 1 hour with 400 people in the smallest place 😏 Except rocks and a few fish I didn’t see anything there. No sign of corals! Continue - again 45 minutes drive to Koh Rok. Good lunch - again with 400 people. Bathing and a bit of snorkeling on the beautiful beach - unfortunately a huge crowd here too. After two hours we go around the island to the last snorkeling spot. Again all boats in the same place, no corals, just rocks and stones on the bottom. A little more fish. Then we head back to Koh Lanta at high speed with high waves - and some vomiting people.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We truly appreciate your comments and are sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. During the high season, the islands are particularly popular, and while we carefully manage our own operations, we are unfortunately unable to control the number of visitors or boats from other tour operators at each location. We understand how this may impact the overall experience, especially while snorkeling. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we will continue doing our best to enhance our service and guest experience. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.
This day trip is very well organized , in speed boat and especially only one or two other boats on the dive sites at the same time as us . I especially appreciated the quality of the mask and snorkel: no leak / no fog / very clean. You have to bring your own fins but honestly not at all necessary and rather dangerous for corals at low tide. Proper and pleasant lunch under the trees at the national park. The dive stop at Koh Haa is really beautiful. To do!
