Speed across the Andaman Sea to snorkel turquoise reefs, stroll a temporary sandbar, relax on Poda’s white sand, then eat BBQ as the sun drops and finish with a guided plankton swim. A full-day, easy-paced marine loop from Ao Nang.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The speedboat cuts a low arc across Andaman waters, spray tasting of salt and lime, cliffs of limestone rising like weathered sculptures that dare you closer. Passengers shift on benches as the boat slides into a blue-green gallery of islands: the first mask-down snorkel among shallow reefs, a walk across a temporary sandbar between Tup and Chicken Islands, then the soft white hush of Poda’s beach as afternoon light softens.

History
The limestone karst around Krabi formed from ancient marine deposits uplifted and eroded over millions of years; Phra Nang Cave carries a long-standing local shrine tradition tied to seafaring culture.
Conservation
Operators encourage reef-safe sunscreen, no-touch snorkeling, and disposal of waste onshore; avoid standing on coral and remove plastic from beaches when possible.

Bring a small dry bag
Keep your phone, ID, and a light layer dry — boats are fast and spray is constant when offshore.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Protect coral and avoid burning on long sun-exposed sections of the day; reapply before snorkeling.
Mind the tide on the sandbar
The Tup–Chicken sandbank appears and recedes with tides — follow your guide’s timing and step carefully on wet sand.
Wear water shoes for beach stops
Sharp shells and coral fragments are common on exposed shores and shallow entries.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects skin and the reef during long sun exposure on the boat and beaches.
