Itinerary

Day 1

This trip combines serious sailing-we will cover a distance of about 100 nautical miles-with the possibility of having the major attractions of the island group just to ourselves.The following itinerary is just an example of a trip done in April 2007. The itinerary is subject to change depending on wind conditions and preferences of our customers.

-Upon arrival(approx. 3pm) we'll have an beach evening at Koh Wua Talap.

Day 2

We're getting up early, enjoy a hearty breakfast and start doing the walk to the viewpoint, one of the most excellent ones in Thailand. At this time of the day, hours before the first tourboats arrive, we're having the trail to ourselves. On the trail we meet a family of Dusky Langurs which comes close allowing us to observe closely. For the completion of the trail basic fitness and shoes are a must but the reward is a fantastic panorama of scattered limestone islands.
On the way back we say hello to our monkey family. Back to the beach we have a little break before heading to Bua Boke Cave. This beautiful cave is a bit higher up as well and after return we're ready for lunch which we're having on the boat, watching the tourboats arrive. We set sails for Koh Saamsao to have a look at the stone bridge and since our customers on this trip aren't into sunbathing on the beach, we're doing some snorkelling.
We hoist the anchor again and motor to our final destination of the day, Koh Mae Koh.
A little beach exploration and dinner served on the boat.

Day 3

After breakfast we're visiting Talay Nai(inner sea), an emerald green lagoon surrounded by limestone bluffs, connected to the sea only by an underwater tunnel. Looking at this natural wonder tells you how somebody could have the idea for a book like "the beach".
It's time for going up anchor again and sail to the northern islands of the group to have a look at the samll lagoon at Koh Tai Plaow. Upon arrival we're noticing two tourboats, so we're having a change of schedule and going with our fast dinghy over to Ko Ngam and Ko Rork to snorkel through some cave tunnels. We're really lucky with the visibility under water. After snrkelling through a tunnel from the eastern to the western side of Koh Rork the tunnel opens and gives the view free to a perfectly alive coral garden. Our guests are a little bit afraid of the black tip reef shark who is waiting for us at the other entrance but after a little mental support they don't miss this attraction.
After the tour boats disappeared we're visiting the little lagoon on Koh Tai Plaow.On request of our customers who need internet access we're setting sails after lunch and do the 5 hour sail to Koh Phangan.
After dinner our guests having an evening ashore.

Day 4

in the morning we hoist the sails to cover the distance from Koh Phanghan back to Koh Tao. Seven hours of really relaxed downwind sailing awaiting us.
We drop anchor at 4pm.
