Location & what to see

Sairee Beach is the main beach on Ko Tao, a small island in the Gulf of Thailand known above all for diving. Along the road behind the sand there is a strip of dive shops, restaurants and bars, so the area has more life than the island's quieter bays. Diving courses are the main reason many visitors come, and Sairee is where most of the dive shops are.

The hostel is about 170 m from the sand, so the beach is a short walk away. Coconut Viewpoint, 1.4 km away, gives a view over the bay, and the Top of the rock viewpoint is 1.3 km away. Koh Nang Yuan, a group of small islets off the island's shore, is known for snorkelling and clear water. Ko Tao has no airport, so arrivals reach the island by boat, often from Koh Samui, where Samui Airport is 66.4 km away. The ferry pier is 1.8 km from the hostel.

A good day could start with a dive or snorkelling trip from the shops along Sairee, then a trip to the Coconut Viewpoint and a visit to the monument to King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) in the afternoon. Diving and snorkelling are the main activities on the island.
