Tarutao National Marine Park has some of the best dive sites
in all of Thailand. Within easy boat reach of Koh Lipe are
hundreds of coral reefs with an amazing variety of huge hard
and soft corals. The corals and seas around Koh Lipe are full
of marine life, offering everything from turtles to huge rays.
Even if you aren’t a diver you can enjoy the marine world
drifting along the edges of coral reefs with a mask and
snorkel. Compared to other dive and snorkel areas there is
so much to see and no competition to see it.

am to catch the speed boat.
