Beautiful snorkelling locations

We really enjoyed our trip, the guides were lovely, friendly and helpful. The snorkelling locations they take you to are fantastic, beautiful coral reefs, clear waters and loads of colourful fish to see! You are provided with plenty of soft drinks and snacks all day, lunch on one of the islands, breakfast and bbq when you arrive at the port and return. There is a photographer also who takes pictures of you throughout the day and these are available to buy after- they are framed and cost 200 bhat (about £4) so are very reasonable and a nice keepsake. If you are seasick make sure you take some sea sickness remedies with you as the water is very choppy! They do have these there for you if you forget! Our reason for only giving 4 stars is that we went the day before Songkran and were repeatedly told how busy all the trips were because of this, normally 8-10 people on each boat and there were around 25 people on our boat. This meant there wasn’t enough space for me and my husband to sit together as the boat was very cramped and he was asked to sit out front of the boat (which isn’t undercover and the journey to the islands is around 1hr 30 minutes and resulted in his getting VERY sunburnt). It was a shame as we were on our honeymoon so would have liked to be sat together! However the day was still fantastic and would still recommend, I think we just chose a bad day to go!

Best snorkeling experience of my life!

Amazing experience! It was above and beyond my expectation. We were picked up at our hotel and dropped off with many others for sign-in and orientation. They served a light breakfast & coffee and provided fins. The ride out was ~1hr and the seas were calm. The staff was amazing, even allowing my wife and I to snorkel leaving our 8 year old son on board (who was too scared at first spot to jump in the ocean). We snorkeled at 3 spots, visited the Moken village and it included a great buffet lunch on Surin Island. This was some of the best snorkeling I have ever done in my life and I recommend this highly. I wish they included the National Park Entry Fee in the price as it added a bit more to bring cash after already paying, but it wasn't that big a deal. I am so happy that my family experienced this trip. Highly recommend.

I had a very good experience on this snorkeling tour to the Surin Islands. The staff was friendly, well-organized, and the snorkeling spots were beautiful, with clear water and plenty of marine life to see. The only aspect I would suggest improving is the boat used for transportation. It felt a bit too small for the number of people on board, and the seating was quite tight, which made the journey less comfortable than it could have been. Overall, I would still recommend this tour for the amazing snorkeling experience, but a more spacious boat would make it even better.

Trio to Surin Islands

Absolutely great organization, a slightly weaker lunch, but redeemed by the abundance of fruit and drinks, but otherwise the service and willingness of the entire team was TOP

Heavily commercialized and average at best

If you are looking for a snorkelling experience with little expectation this isn’t too bad. We arrived around 9am and had waited for an hour and a half before we finally set sail to visit the islands. This felt quite disorganized as you get some of your gear, then they explain where to get the rest of your stuff. The boat ride was much longer than expected and overall the boat ride was smooth, but boring as you can’t see anything and are crowded with a bunch of people. When you head out, you are with 3-5 other boats with around 30 people each, so each spot seems overcrowded. The snorkelling spots were really beautiful with beautiful reefs and plenty of amazing fish to see, however was disappointed that they show turtles on their ads and there were no turtles. It’s starts with 1 snorkelling spot then you head to moken community for about 25 minutes. It is a very lovely community however the amount of time spent there was minimal. You will find the itinerary of this trip to be inaccurate as you go throughout the day. We then got to Mai Ngam Beach where it was heavily crowded and the lunch was terrible. Little options and really not any food that describes the Thai culture. It wasn’t even warm! We finished off with two more snorkelling spots which were nice. The staff was very friendly, however seemed disinterested and did absolutely no explaining of anything whatsoever. Once we arrived back, we were greeted with tons of pictures they were looking to sell and a buffet of ok looking food, however at that point we just wanted to go back to our hotel which we had to wait 30 minutes to get our shuttle back. Overall, there are much better tours out there, but if you’re looking for something easy and don’t have many expectations, this isn’t too bad, maybe a bit expensive for what it is.

Surin Islands Snorkeling

We went to three excellent snorkeling sites. There was vibrant coral and many different types of fish. We also were able to visit the Moken Village to shop for unique souvenirs. The staff was warm and friendly.
