We thoroughly enjoyed this trip: 3 snorkel sites, guide took great pics on the go pro, and a leisurely hour on a secluded beach before sunset. Excellent value for money!”

5.Koh Lipe: 7 Island Snorkeling Trip by Longtail Boat w/ Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 37 reviews · 6h 30m · from $27

Spend 6.5 hours aboard a traditional longtail boat from Koh Lipe, visiting Koh Hin Son, Koh Ro Khloi, Hin Ngam, Jabang, and other island stops. You get snorkel gear, lunch, fruit, drinking water, an English or Thai-speaking guide, and a group limited to 10 people.

“Le tour des 7 îles en snorkeling vaut la peine si vous découvrez ce type d’activité à Koh Lipe. Les spots proposés sont globalement très beaux, même si, parmi eux, seuls deux se démarquent réellement et méritent le détour. En revanche, si vous avez déjà pratiqué le snorkeling dans des destinations vraiment paradisiaques, l’excursion risque de vous laisser un peu sur votre faim ; mieux vaut alors profiter tranquillement de l’île de Koh Lipe. L’activité reste correcte dans l’ensemble et justifie sa note.”

9.Koh Lipe: 5 Island Snorkeling Trip by Longtail Boat w/ Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 11 reviews · 5h 30m · from $22

Set out from Star Travel near Pattaya Beach with an English or Thai-speaking guide for a 5.5-hour longtail boat trip to Jabang, Hin Ngam, Koh Yang, Koh Rawi, and Koh Adang. Snorkeling gear, lunch, fruit, water, and basic accident insurance are included, but the 200 THB national park fee is extra.

“Sunny and the team were super helpful and responsive to any questions before the trip. The trip itself was excellent - although in our opinion the Jabang stop was very overcrowded with other tourists, many of whom seemed uncomfortable in the water, limbs flailing everywhere! That said, the other snorkeling stops were amazing - the best we've experienced on our trip so far, and the lunchstop on Rawi was absolutely beautiful - white sand, turquoise water, a real island paradise. A thoroughly enjoyable trip and a 'must do' for anyone staying on Lipe who wants to experience this underwater world first hand.”
