ANG THONG MARINE NATIONAL PARK - THAILAND

 

ANG THONG MARINE NATIONAL PARK

KO SAMUI - SOUTH OF THAILAND

 

 

 

Located about 20 kilometers west of Samui, this archipelago of 42 islands fits everyone's image of a tropical paradise, with huge, limestone rocks covered in virgin rainforest rising out of the aquamarine waters. Most people come here on a day trip from Ko Samui which can be organized by the guide companies on Chaweng and Lamai beaches. There is a fantastic viewpoint on Ko Wua Talap, just above the park headquarters, looking out over the uninhabited, pristine islands and giving visitors one of the most beautiful scenery ever seen. Trips around the park usually include a visit to a delightful concealed lagoon on Ko Mae Ko, as well as the opportunity to paddle a sea kayak around the strange limestone formations.
