A perfect day in paradise ends with a mesmerising sunset view of the Gulf of Thailand. We board a traditional Burmese junk boat and cruise to idyllic beaches on Koh Phangan, the sister island of Koh Samui. This is more laid back and less developed than its larger neighbour. The schedule includes stops at the best snorkelling areas to view an amazing underwater world of coral reefs, teeming with colourful tropical fish. Afterwards, there is time to relax on the white sandy beaches, ahead of the anchor being raised and further exploration of more hidden beaches after we set sail. The package includes a delicious lunch served on board the vessel. In the late afternoon, we enjoy drinks as the sun’s rays fade into the ocean – the perfect end to a perfect day.

There is more to Koh Samui than its impressive white sandy beaches and turquoise waters. This half-day excursion enables us explore the coastal beauty, lush countryside and main attractions as we journey around the island. Our adventure takes us to three of the most famous temples, followed by a visit to two impressive natural beachside rocks called Hin Tar and Hin Yai. We also head to Lad Koh Viewpoint, which is one of the best places to admire the sublime coastline. Our final stop is at Namuang Waterfall where we have time to relax and even take a dip in the cooling pools, before we take a stroll around the island’s capital Nathon, ahead of the return to our respective hotels.
