Board a speedboat from An Thoi for a private day that pairs the Hon Thom cable car’s sweeping views with guided snorkeling at Half‑Moon Reef and Coral Mountain. Expect beach time, reef dives, and a relaxed island finish with fresh fruit and cocktails.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The morning light slides across the Gulf of Thailand as the speedboat cuts from An Thoi harbor toward Hon Thom — palms skim the horizon and water throws back silver. You start on a 15‑minute cable car ride above Sun World Hon Thom Natural Park, where the southern islands fan out below like a scattering of coins. After a beachside lunch you trade shoreline for reef: Half‑Moon Reef and Coral Mountain sit shallow and vivid, anemones and clownfish darting through columns of hard and soft coral.
