Our speedboat will get you the Similans quick so you have more time to enjoy the white sand beaches, azure waters and amazing fish that have made the Andaman Sea so special. We should spend 70 minutes or so (depends on the weather!) getting you to the Islands. Then? Maybe snorkeling with turtles, angelfish and hundreds of other species darting about the red, blue and yellow corals below you.
Bring the whole family! We not only are great snorkel guides, but with all staff are also dive instructors and anyone who wants to learn, or already is certified to dive – we will take care of you. Combine the trips – it’s easy.
Each day we go to different sites, so you can join us for a single day of snorkeling, two days, visit the Surin Island or even – if you dare – join one of our overnight snorkeling tours!
All Wicked Snorkel guides are passionate about the aquatic realm and it shows! We do far more than just swim around – rather we point out special species, unique coral systems and even some of the rare animals that live on the islands – like the Hairy-legged crabs. Wicked snorkel trips are very family friendly and can be conducted in English, Swedish, German and Thai. We are famous for our thorough briefings and high standards!
Your guides will be at your resort in the morning, let you know about the specific destinations to be expected and some information about safety and guidelines for safe snorkeling. Soon you’ll be on the white sand beaches and turquoise waters of the Similan Islands. After a picnic lunch (on the beach) of Thai delicacies we stroll off to one of the viewpoints for a scenic overview, then more snorkeling (or sunbathing if you prefer). Back to your resort with plenty of time for a sunset drink overlooking the Andaman Sea.
Please look at our Safe snorkeling guidelines page, or the Similan Snorkeling FAQ if you have futher questions
So what do we see on our trips? We can never guarantee what we will see but we very often see Turtle, Rays, Moray Eels, Octopus. While Manta Rays do visit the Simialn islands they rarely come into the shallows. Sharks are common on the Similans – but usually quite small and there are no known aggressive species that visit the Similans. Rather, enjoy the opportunity to see them in the wild without fear! Turtles – Green and Hawksbill are seen pretty frequently – Similan Island #1 is a turtle nesting sanctuary. Snapper, Trevally, Jacks, Sweetlips, Angelfish, Bannerfish, Barracuda and hundreds of species more. Not to mention hard corals, soft corals, sponges and exotic species

If the Simlan Islands are interesting …
The Surin Islands are more remote, and have much fewer visitors than the Similan islands. The Surins are famous for their great snorkeling (the diving is not so great). The corals are in great condition – With many small remote beaches. Made up two very large islands and many smaller rocks The Surin islands have plenty of choices. Due to the distance we start a bit earlier and end a bit later, but well worth the effort.

Once we get to the Surin’s, your guide will escort you through some great sites. After a huge lunch we head off to one of the other beaches for some seriously scenic photography and a bit of a splash, then more snorkeling).. Only 3500 Baht for Adults
