Spend a day aboard a catamaran from Pattaya to Koh Pai and Koh Rin for snorkeling, paddleboarding, fishing and a buffet lunch, finishing with a sunset cruise back. Expect shallow coral gardens, white-sand beach stops, and included snorkel gear and refreshments.

The catamaran slips out of Pattaya's marina as the morning heat sits flat on the bay, engines low and the sea daring you forward. Salt air and teak underfoot set the pace: a slow cruise to Koh Pai (locally known as Bamboo Island) and the coral-swept reefs around Koh Rin, with a sunset return that paints the horizon while the boat hums contentedly.
