Thailand has some of the finest beaches in the world and this beach crawl will take you through some of our favorites. You will begin your tour on Koh Samui, a large island which has an airport and serves as a convenient base from which to explore. Here you will note only find beautiful beaches, but wonderful shopping, delicious food, world-class spas and exciting nightlife.
From Samui, you will be transferred by boat to the smaller island of Koh Phangan. This smaller island is one of most stunningly beautiful islands in Thailand, with vibrant jungle rising up from the tropical sea. Koh Phangan offers something for everyone and Journeys Within can customize your tour to offer a peaceful natural retreat, amazing snorkeling opportunities, or if you prefer life on the wild side, we can schedule your time in Koh Phangan to coincide with the festivities of the Full Moon Party.
To finish off your experience, you will be transferred to the small island of Koh Tao which offers some of the world’s best diving opportunities. Koh Tao focuses on maintaining a healthy and beautiful marine ecosystem and life here runs on island time. Enjoy the mellow pace and the beach.
We recommend this tour during the months of May, June and July as this this the best time to visit these particular islands and other areas in Southeast Asia will be experiencing the rainy season. If you prefer to travel a different time of year, Journeys Within can help you select the perfect Thailand beaches for your visit.
