What To Expect

Koh Madsum has recently become famous for its Island pig family, no longer is it named Koh Madsum but Pig island. A fantastic trip for families with children and travel onboard a traditional Thai longtail boat. But what makes Pig Island truly unique – are its friendly residents – wild boars! Soak up in the sun and admire the breathtaking scenery of Koh Samui on the horizon, while the boars are roaming around freely. The water is clear and calm, while the surrounding coral reef is vibrant.

Pig Island is an incredible day trip. With a white sandy beach and some lush interior, including mangrove forests, there are few eco-adventures to undertake in Pig Island as well. Kayaking along the shore, you may come across some rare birds and elusive monitor lizards. You can even reach Koh Tan, the second secluded island in the vicinity, offering even more remarkable snorkeling, trekking, and wildlife exploration. Welcome to the Thai version of the Bahamas!

A quiet day around Pig Island

We wanted something slower, and this private longtail trip matched that perfectly. Having our own boat made the day feel flexible. The beach became busier later in the afternoon, so going earlier would be even better.

Would recommend

This tour does have snorkeling, although it's not listed in the itinerary. We didn't want to snorkel, so we just told our guide and spent the whole time on Pig Island, so that was not a big deal. I also booked the tour for the 1-5 person group, and somehow they only had our booking for 4 people. We had to pay extra when we arrived in order to have 5 people on the boat. I am not entirely sure of what went on there, but it was only 500 baht to add another person. Overall, the tour company was accommodating, so we would recommend this.

Fun day but read this review for important details and expectations

Great day out on the water and to see Pig Island. We were picked up at our hotel by a car, driven to the Pier, then rode the boat to pig island first. Important to know, you WILL get very wet on the boat, so dress accordingly, but that was part of the fun. Recommend glasses to keep water out of your eyes. Pig island is full of dozens of cute pigs of all sizes. You have to pay 50 baht upon arrival but this is listed in activity details. We then summoned the boat (you can take as long as you choose on pig island) to go to the Koh Tam swimming spot. I give 4 stars because the Koh Tam swim spot was pretty small and had a great deal of litter on the shore, but the water was nice. We were unable to snorkel because it had rained recently, but obviously this is outside their control. We then took the boat home. Overall I recommend as a fun day out of the hotel on Koh Samui but I wish I know about the wet boat ride and had a cleaner swim spot.

Interesting day out, but not quite the calming experience we anticipated

We did a private trip, and glad we did as we were first on the island in the morning. It could also be called dog island as there are as many dogs as pigs, and can be a bit overwhelming! The pigs were still sleeping, no guide told us what to do until other people arrived and we saw them with plates of food for the pigs. Warning - they are greedy and steal the whole plate from your hand! We were told we had 2 hours on the island, but Once we'd had a little potter with the pigs and the dogs, after an hour we were ready to go so again a private tour was good as we could make our own way back We then stopped at a snorkeling point and this was great! Good to see local fish and float in the wonderful sea.

Great value private boat tour

We did the morning half-day with my 2YO son, and a friend with her kids (11YO and 13YO). We all loved it, particularly the snorkelling. I'm so glad we did the long tail boat and not a speedboat tour as we had the boat to ourselves and could dictate the schedule. We got to pig Island first, before it was completely overrun with people and were able to leave when we were done (seriously, 45-mins there was long enough to befriend the thirsty pigs, wander around and have a swim). We then went to Koh Tan for the snorkelling, and all gear was provided, even a life-jacket for my 2YO which meant he could go in the water too, which he loved. When we were done they happily took us back to Koh Samui for lunch. Great morning.

Easy Morning Trip

We had an enjoyable morning visiting Pig island, it was great to have the flexibility of our own traditional Longtail boat. We left early so were one of the first on Pig Island, we avoided the crowds and got to pat the pigs and dogs, have a swim in the crystal clear water and have a drink from the bar. Once all the other tourist boats arrived we went to the snorkeling site where we had the reef to ourselves. The reef is not as good for snorkeling as Koh Tao but we saw plenty of fish and sting rays. The guide was considerate and polite though didn't talk or tell us anything about the places we were going.
