A low-profile pier dissolves into sea-spray as the VIP speedboat slips away from Koh Samui, engines steady and a morning sun pushing heat over the Gulf. Islands rise like blunt green teeth on the horizon; limestone cliffs jut, and bays blue enough to make you blink. By mid-morning the boat slips into Koh Wao’s shallow reef, and the water seems to dare you—clear enough to count parrotfish below as you don a mask.
