Koh Nang Yuan is a beautiful little island near Ko Tao, in Southern Thailand. Visitors to the island are known to enjoy the spectacular diving sites that are teeming with marine life. The pristine white sandy beaches are popular for snorkelling activities as its crystal clear warm waters are abundant with a variety of sea life bustling by. Tourists staying at Anantara Bophut Koh Samui Resort or other hotels would find that a day trip to Koh Nang Yuan is a great way to spend the day by relaxing on the beach or exploring the treasures of the underwater world. Getting to the island isn’t as issue as visitors staying at any of Koh Samui 5 star resorts can hop on a boat to the island.
Koh Nang Yuan is surrounded by shallow reefs that is home to colourful fish and other marine life including lively coral, so be careful not to damage or step on any while exploring these beautiful natural treasures. Snorkelers will be able to swim with clown fish, butterfly fish, angelfish and many others and are therefore great for underwater photography!
Snorkelling is a great activity that can be enjoyed by the whole family, and for those who prefer not to get their head under the water, the clear shallow waters are just as ideal for spotting fish and other marine creatures.
For the more adventurous, diving is another great way to experience the wonders of life under the sea as divers will be treated to sights of sting rays, moray eels, giant sea turtles and possibly even whale sharks!
To get away from the sea for an hour or two, hike up Koh Nang Yuan’s highest peak. The view from at the top falls nothing short of magnificent as hikers are treated to a bird’s eye view of the three islands joined together by a small strip of sand. Don’t forget to photograph this view as it’ll someday make for a great screensaver or postcard!
