Ko Tao , literally
Turtle Island, is an island in the Gulf of Thailand
in the south of Thailand.
Ko
Tao is a great place for divers who want to get
away from the hustle and bustle of Ko
Samui and want more than the Full Moon Party
on Ko Pha Ngan.
Ko Tao is a great place to learn how to dive. There
are hardly any currents and you have to travel in
a boat for at least an hour to find depths deeper
than 40 meters.
Stay Safe
The number one way to stay safe on Ko Tao is to
not rent a motorbike. Motorbike accidents are very
common, and almost unavoidable given the fact that
people drive them drunk, on the left side of the
road (unless they're drunk), and in the dark. The
island is tiny, and can easily be navigated on bicycle
or foot. Should you be unfotunate enough to need
medical attention then there are numerous clinics
on the island and with the largest clinic being
situated in Sairee.
