Wonderful places but a nightmare journey with 3 meter high waves and an unsuitable boat for the journey of over 2 hours to face. 40 people crowded onto a motorboat completely soaked by the strong wave (Read More)s. Guidance almost non-existent.

Transfer was well organised, the boat was full but there was enough room for everyone, we got water all day long and outside lunch also fruit and cold coffee. We stopped at two beautiful snorkeling lo (Read More)cations along the way where we had plenty of time to view all the beautiful things underwater. It was not a mass activity (like to the Koh Phi Phi islands) because we were the only boat at one location and the second snorkeling location only has one other boat so it is wonderfully quiet. Don't forget to take a boat sickness pill an hour before departure because we had a lot of high waves for a while, but we didn't feel bad about it. Lunch was a buffet and fine! It was the best boat trip we took during our holiday: both in terms of location and crowds and definitely recommended! The Surin Islands and its underwater world are truly beautiful!

This was a loooong day from Phuket town but quite worth it. The snorkeling in the Surin islands is much better than that of popular Phi Phi and they are also more conscious of the ecosystem. We got to (Read More) see a lot of beautiful fish like clown fish and star fish, even on a gloomy day. There is a lot of time at each stop to spend snorkeling. You're in the water almost the whole time once you get to the islands. Thanks to Oat & the entire team for taking care of us and being an awesome bunch.

There was a lot of insistence on buying something - be it at stops or photos, etc. They even wanted to force you to take photos... even after repeated nos - they didn't want to let us on the boat with (Read More)out a photo. So the day started less beautifully. Luckily we had previously done other tours with other providers and this is by no means common in the region. Two stops were good - one was totally run down and dirty and you should only buy jewelry from children. There was no food either (overcooked and half of it was already gone…). We wouldn't do it again. Guide wasn’t particularly friendly…
