Koh Lanta Snorkeling Tours
Swim with tropical fish, explore coral reefs, and discover Thailand’s underwater beauty
What Are Snorkeling Tours?
Snorkeling tours are guided boat trips that take you to shallow, clear-water areas where you can float on the surface and observe marine life. With just a mask, snorkel, and fins, you can explore coral reefs, spot tropical fish, and enjoy the peaceful underwater scenery without needing scuba gear or special training.
These tours are designed for all ages and experience levels. Most include a mix of boat travel, time in the water, and beach stops. Guides are usually on hand to help beginners and point out interesting sea creatures along the way.
Snorkeling tours are a great way to:
- Experience marine life up close
- Visit beautiful reefs and islands
- Spend a relaxing day on the water
It's one of the easiest and most popular ways to enjoy the ocean, especially in tropical destinations like southern Thailand.

Tips Before You Go
A little preparation helps make your snorkeling tour smoother and more enjoyable.
Here’s what to keep in mind before the trip:
- Bring reef-safe sunscreen – Regular sunscreen can harm coral. Look for ocean-friendly options.
- Wear swimwear under your clothes – It saves time and makes it easier when getting on and off the boat.
- Pack a towel and dry change of clothes – You’ll want something dry for the ride back.
- Protect your valuables – We provide dry bags, but it’s best to leave non-essentials at your hotel.
- Stay hydrated – Thailand is hot, especially on the water. We provide drinking water, but feel free to bring extra.
If you have questions about gear or what to bring, just ask. We’re happy to help you prepare.
