Information about Koh Tao

oh Tao is to the northeast of Surat Thani, about 38 kilometers from Koh Phangan, and about 64 kilometers away from Chumphon.

Since 2005 it is now really easy to get to Koh Tao. You can drive with one of the high speed catamaran boats. You can also arrive from one of the neighboring islands (Koh Phangan or Koh Samui).

Diving in and around Koh Tao's beautiful coral reefs is the islands main attraction. Resorts on Koh Tao offer a wide range of accommodation to fit most budgets.

Traveling around the island and visiting other beaches and bays pretty easy.. Just off the concrete main road you have to be careful when driving on dirty roads. Pick -ups and taxies can be found almost everywhere.

Initially this small island was not inhabited, visited only by fisherman from not far away Koh Samui when looking for shelter during storms at sea or when getting water or and supplies.

KoTao island is located about 70 km east of the coastline between Chumporn and Surat Thani in the Siamese Gulf and its approximatly 21 km² in size - so small ... but big enough.

Dating from 1933-1947 Ko Tao was home to political prisoners. Because it's positioned about 70 km from Surat Thani meant it was very hard to escape from! Alcatraz ... was nothing in comparison with this island.

KohTao is petite; 22 square kilometer and 50% of that too steep to access. Ko Tao is surrounded by a lot sharks too, nice friendly ones fortunately. And yes, you can still snorkel with sharks, and perhaps the odd turtle too, just check out our web site for all the local dive centres available.
