Two small islands south of Koh Samui, less well known than the classic destinations of the Gulf of Thailand and so generally quieter. The pace stays relaxed, with plenty of time at each site.
Koh Mudsum opens the day after a fifteen-minute crossing from Thong Krut: a pale-sand beach, shallow water, a first swim and time to get used to the gear. Lunch in the shade of the trees, then on to Koh Tan, larger and known for its shallow reefs. Two snorkelling stops are planned at the most fish-rich spots, where parrotfish, damselfish and shoals of fusiliers pass by.
