About this experience
Embark on a private longtail boat adventure with your own captain from Koh Samui to discover two beautiful nearby islands at your own pace. Play with the famous, friendly pigs on the shores of Koh Madsum and explore a vibrant underwater world with dedicated time for snorkeling at Koh Tan.
To avoid the big crowds, the afternoon departure is the perfect choice for those seeking a peaceful adventure at Pig Island and a more relaxed, serene atmosphere on the water.
Setting sail from Koh Samui, we first head to Koh Tan (weather permitting), where you can use the provided gear to explore a thriving snorkeling site. Dive into the crystal-clear water to discover an abundance of colorful tropical fish and vibrant coral reefs.
Next, we cruise over to Koh Madsum, famously known as Pig Island. Here, you can relax on the powdery white sand beaches, swim in the calm turquoise ocean, and meet the adorable local pig population. Enjoy plenty of time to play, take photos, and interact with them in this true paradise location.
After an unforgettable half-day on the water, step back aboard your private longtail boat and enjoy a peaceful return journey back to Koh Samui, concluding a trip filled with wonderful memories.
