Koh Tao, a small island in the Gulf of Thailand, is renowned worldwide as a diving paradise. With crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs, it's one of the most popular places to get PADI certified. Beyond diving, the island offers stunning beaches like Sairee Beach and Tanote Bay, perfect for relaxation and snorkelling. Visitors can hike to picturesque viewpoints such as John-Suwan or explore the unique granite boulders at Laem Thian. The island hosts the annual Koh Tao Festival in June, celebrating local culture with music, food and environmental awareness activities. Accessible by ferry from the mainland, Koh Tao also serves as a convenient jumping-off point for island-hopping to nearby Koh Phangan and Koh Samui, with regular ferry connections available year-round.
