Surin Islands National Park is where snorkellers go for their fix of rainbow-coloured corals and white sandy beaches straight out of a catalogue. This early risers full-day tour features a speed catamaran ride and a day of snorkelling at some of the finest spots in Thailand.

The day kicks off with an early start to beat the crowds. A tropical cocktail of bright blue waters and neon coral reefs, the Surin Islands are an exotic escape inhabited by the Moken – a group of people who have a totally distinct culture thanks to their life on the sea. Meet these fascinating seafaring folk, before your first snorkelling stop at Chong Kaad Bay. Then, it's time for lunch at the National Park's restaurant.

You'll continue the day with two more snorkelling stops at the likes of Bon Bay, Tao Bay or Pineapple Bay. And in between spotting marine life, you'll have time to relax, sunbathe and soak in the views on deck.

We enjoyed the whole day it was amazing,however when we arrived at the gypsy village their was quite a lot of litter where the boat pulled in which was quite a shame for such a beautiful place. I am sure we as tourists have contributed to but could be cleaned up quite easily.

Food on the island was not the best. Expected something better and to be hot not stone cold.

The day was fantastic and the guide was excellent. 6 o’clock start was just a bit early.

Breakfast was supplied at the pier along with sea sickness pills. Once on the boat ear plugs for the noise of the boat, towels and water bottles were handed out. Snorkelling equipment supplied and soft drinks available all day. So you don’t need to take much with you. Staff informative and helpful. Would recommend this trip.

Really enjoyed the trip from start to finish, good hospitality, good knowledge from the staff, great snorkelling spots. My only downside of the trip was to the island with the nomadic tribe, yes it is good to see the culture but there was plastic everywhere which would have been better tidied up by the children if as the guide said they were being educated. Also a child had a poo on the sand in front of us, again educate them to go elsewhere.

We were well looked after. They ensured we had enough to drink and eat. The staff were so friendly and made sure we were safe. The whole trip was enjoyable from start to finish.
