More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Salt air tangles your hair as the catamaran eases out of Ocean Marina and the mainland shrinks into a low line of buildings. The sea pushes and pulls like an obliging companion; the crew calls out anchors and towels while Koh Phai’s white sand waits under the noon sun. By afternoon, Koh Rin’s shallow reefs glint through clear water, daring you to slip in and meet the fish.

Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
Chemical sunscreens damage corals—choose reef-safe formulations and apply before boarding to protect marine life.
Prepare for motion
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication before boarding and sit mid-ship where motion is least felt.
