Mae Haad is the port village of Ko Tao, a small island in the Gulf of Thailand that is well known to divers. The hostel sits in the village itself, so the pier, the small shops and the everyday life of the port are close by, and the sea is a short distance away. The island has no bridge or airport, so the boat is the way in and out, and the village is compact enough to explore on foot.

Sairee Beach, the island's main beach strip, lies 600 m away and is lined with dive schools. The Welcome to Koh Tao Turtle Monument stands 350 m away, and the John - Suwan Mountain View Point, 2.8 km away, looks out over the island's bays. The viewpoint is a good place to see how the coast curves around the village.

A good day could start with a swim at the beach by the village, continue with a walk up to the viewpoint for the wide views over the bays, and end in the hostel lounge with a drink from the bar. The lounge makes a simple place to finish the day after a boat trip. Boat trips depend on the sea, and when it is rough they can be cancelled.
