Samui Coral Island and Pig Island by speedboat
Experience one of the most charming and memorable day trips from Koh Samui — a speedboat adventure to Coral Island and Pig Island. This fun and relaxing half-day excursion combines snorkeling, swimming, sunbathing, and meeting the friendly pigs that made Koh Madsum world-famous. Operated by Phuket Travel Store, this tour is designed for travelers who want to discover Samui’s southern islands with comfort, fun, and stunning scenery.
A Short Speedboat Ride to Paradise
The journey begins with a convenient hotel pick-up in Koh Samui and transfer to Thong Krut Pier, where your professional guide welcomes you aboard a comfortable speedboat. After a short 20-minute cruise, you’ll reach a small group of idyllic islands located south of Samui. The ride itself is spectacular — turquoise waters, gentle sea breeze, and the backdrop of Samui’s green hills prepare you for the adventure ahead.
Your first stop is Coral Island (Koh Tan), a rustic island known for its traditional village, calm beaches, and excellent snorkeling sites. The surrounding reef offers clear, shallow water filled with colorful fish and marine life. While Koh Tan cannot be compared to the famous diving islands like Koh Tao, it still provides a relaxing and scenic snorkeling experience ideal for beginners and families. You can swim, explore the coral gardens, or simply float in the warm tropical sea.
Meet the Famous Pigs on Koh Madsum (Pig Island)
After snorkeling, your journey continues to Koh Madsum, better known as Pig Island Samui. This small island has become one of the most popular attractions in southern Thailand — not because of luxury resorts or nightlife, but thanks to its adorable residents: Malaysian pot-bellied pigs.
Here, on the white sandy beach, pigs of all sizes — from playful piglets to large adults — roam freely. They love the attention of visitors and are happy to pose for photos or be gently fed. Feeding the pigs has become a favorite holiday memory for travelers from around the world. Phuket Travel Store ensures an early-morning visit to Pig Island to avoid crowds, so you can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and interact with the animals at your own pace.
Beyond the pigs, Koh Madsum offers a postcard-perfect beach with powdery white sand, crystal-clear waters, and swaying palm trees. Relax on a sunbed, swim in the shallow lagoon, or take a stroll along the shore. You’ll also find swings and hammocks, perfect for taking Instagram-worthy photos with the sea and sky as your backdrop.
Discover the Charm of Koh Rap
Depending on weather and sea conditions, the next stop is often Koh Rap, a smaller and quieter island surrounded by crystal-clear water. It’s one of the most peaceful islands in the area — ideal for travelers looking for tranquility. Koh Rap’s sandy shoreline invites you to relax in hammocks, enjoy refreshing drinks, or simply gaze at the endless blue sea. The calm, shallow water makes it a perfect place for swimming or wading while enjoying the island’s laid-back atmosphere.
Relaxation, Nature, and Local Flavors
After exploring these tropical gems, the speedboat takes you back to Koh Samui, where a delicious Thai lunch awaits at a beachside restaurant. Taste authentic local dishes, enjoy fresh fruit and snacks, and soak up the relaxed island vibe.
Throughout the tour, Phuket Travel Store provides cold drinks, life jackets, snorkeling gear, and professional local guides to ensure comfort and safety. Whether you’re traveling as a couple, a family, or a group of friends, this day trip is designed to make you feel connected to nature and island life.
