A high-speed, small-group day trip from Krabi that covers Hong Island’s white beach, a limestone-enclosed emerald lagoon, Pakbia’s photography-friendly sandbank, and snorkeling at Lao-Lading. Fast transit, local guide, and a beachside Thai lunch make it a full seaside day.

The morning light breaks over Krabi as the speedboat noses out into the Andaman — water pushing and guiding you toward sheer limestone walls and a hidden emerald lagoon. Waves slap the hull, salt on your lips, while the guide points to a narrow entrance where the cliffs almost close like a door. Inside, the water sits quiet and green, daring you to swim.
