Itinerario
Recógelo cómodamente en la mañana temprano en minivan desde tu hotel en Khao Lak y dirígete al muelle de Nam Khem. Conozca a la entusiasta tripulación de SeaStar Andaman y disfrute de un desayuno ligero antes de navegar en lancha rápida en menos de 90 minutos a las islas vírgenes de Surin. El Parque Nacional Mu Koh Surin está situado en la provincia de Phang Nga, a unos 60 kilómetros de la costa. Haga la primera parada de snorkel en la bahía de Chong Khat, que se encuentra entre las dos islas principales de Surin. En mareas bajas es posible cruzar, ya que el agua es extremadamente poco profunda. Nuestros guías le explicarán cómo proteger y conservar los arrecifes de coral a través de las pautas ecológicas de Green Fins para su experiencia de snorkel. Continúe hasta Koh Surin Tai (la Isla Surin Sur) para descubrir el estilo de vida natural de los 150 gitanos marinos Moken. El Chao Leh, que significa 'The Sea People' en tailandés, pasa gran parte de su vida en sus barcos, llamado 'kabang'. Los Moken sobreviven principalmente a través de la caza de peces y la recolección de mariscos y otras especies marinas de los arrecifes y marismas. En Mai Ngam Beach puedes disfrutar de la vida en la playa o pasear por la ruta de senderismo de 2 kilómetros. Luego, disfrute de un delicioso almuerzo buffet en la cantina de la estación de guardaparques para alimentar su energía para las próximas sesiones de snorkel. Dirígete a Bon Bay o Pineapple Bay (dependiendo de las condiciones del mar) donde puedes nadar en vibrantes arrecifes de coral y ver coloridos peces flotando alrededor de sus hábitats naturales en aguas tranquilas. La última parada de snorkel será en la bahía de Mae Yai con un salto a las aguas turquesas limpias y claras que rebosan de una magnífica vida acuática submarina. Después de un momento encantador, es hora de decir adiós a las Islas Surin y regresar al muelle en Khao Lak. Disfrute de algunos dulces y café antes de regresar a su alojamiento en Khao Lak con sonrisas felices y una historia increíble para contarles a sus amigos.

I haven’t stopped thinking about how well organised this tour was, they thought of everything. I rarely write reviews but I truly think Sea Star deserves 5 star reviews here. From someone who has lived in South East Asia, this tour was one of the best run and well organised tours I’ve ever been on in SEA. The drop off and check in was seamless, clear instructions and direction upon arrival to check in and collect flippers. Funny tour guides who made us laugh throughout the day and feel welcome. Food provided on arrival and departure as well as stunning waters. The catamaran was a definite plus, loved the whole day, would recommend. Definitely worth the money even if it looks steep.
Fantastic trip beutiful Coral great food plenty of it Only disappointment was the way mokan people kept their beach went there to buy of them but as soon as I saw cans bottles trash all about I thought not my Aussie dollars they are staying in my pockets Guys a big downer they want tourist bucks cleanup there act .Loved the history talk befoe the trip about these nomadic sea gypsys really got excited about seeing them I think your cruise group would have the power to say hey cleanup your act or else. Other wise trip couldn't be faulted would definitely recommend and hopefully hear this area is bought back to pristine beach

Thank you again for your recommendation and for bringing this to our attention. We truly hope to welcome you back again in the future for an even better experience.
This is one of the best run tours I've ever taken. Not because of the designation itself but just how organized and efficient they are. If these guys could run America...hey, the world, the place would be perfect! From the timely pickup, to the crazy (as there's a bunch of people) but super quick check in, the fun guides, the attention to detail (new mouth guards given for every snorkel - never had that before, defogger for your masks, flippers, drinks, fresh/nice towels, snacks after each stop, breakfast/lunch/dinner). Most tours just give you a boat, some food, and old equipment so I appreciated all the little touches. When you come back they've printed every photo from the trip and have them in frames (not sure how they did that so quickly). Seems a bit of a waste (printer ink/paper/manpower) as only a fraction were bought. Maybe invest in TV screens with the photos on, but again, amazing efficiency. The food is not amazing but it's endless so you wont go hungry. I did the Surin tour by recommendation of the travel agent I booked with in town and the snorkeling was great...some of the best colors and abundance of fish I've seen in years.
The snorkeling is lovely and the staff is so kind but the boat ride is awful. They cram a bunch of people onto high benches with straight backs so it’s very uncomfortable for the entire very rough ride. Also it’s chaotic and unorganized when you arrive. There’s a lot of waiting around in the hot Sun. If there is another option to get to Surin islands I’d recommend taking that.
Beautiful snorkeling. Boat packed like sardines. Food was not good. Staff was mocking people of the Mock village, found that unprofessional and insensitive. No real personal interaction with the staff. Would choose a different tour option next time.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback with us. We are truly pleased to hear that you enjoyed the snorkeling experience and found it beautiful. At the same time, we are sincerely sorry to learn that other aspects of the tour did not meet your expectations. We regret that you felt the boat was too crowded and that the food was not to your satisfaction. Your comments are very important to us, and we will carefully review them with our team to see how we can improve the overall comfort and quality of our service. We are especially concerned to hear your remarks regarding our staff’s behavior. Please accept our sincere apologies if anything was said or done that appeared unprofessional or insensitive. This is certainly not the standard of service we aim to provide, and we will address this matter internally to ensure it does not happen again. Thank you again for your honest feedback. It helps us improve and provide a better experience for our future guests. We truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and offer you a much better experience next time.
It was the best excursion we ever took. Corals, fish, visiting the local island, scenery just wow. Everything is really well organized and well thought out. I give 5 stars. We really liked it I recommend 100%. Next time I'd like to sleep on the island!
Very positive experience .. everything organized perfectly. Punctual hotel pickup...excellent services...friendly and prepared guide
Absolutely fantastic tour with very experienced and attentive guide and crew. The snorkel locations were so great - we saw angel fish, clown fish, parrot fish and beautiful coral reefs. The time at the sea gypsy village was really fascinating and we all loved meeting the locals. We saw flying lemurs and pig macaques on Surin island. Snacks, drinks , breakfast, lunch and dinner were included. We would definitely recommend this tour.
Travelled from the uk. Had a great trip, really good communication, with detailed instructions of what we needed to do before the trip and bring with us. Snorkelling gear and towels were provided. We were picked up on time and taken to the port where we were served a nice breakfast. We were given an introduction of what would happen and some interesting info on the places we were going to. We were on Patee's team (unsure how to spell the name) who were all fab and looked after us, spoke excellent english and gave us interesting facts and made us laugh all day. We were on the speedboat for 90 minutes to the 1st stop which was where the moken tribe lived. Bought some nice souvenirs and enjoyed our time here. We had 1 snorkelling stop before going to the next island which was where we had a lovely buffet lunch and a swim in the lovely bay. Then 2 more snorkelling stops, we saw lots of fish and amazing coral reefs and then we set off back which took approx 90 mins. On arrival back at the pier there was a nice buffet dinner waiting for us and there was photos of us for sale from the photographer who had been with us all day. Had a great day, for me the sea was very choppy, which apparantly was normal for november. The speed boat was very bouncy and hurt my wifes back. Its like going to the uk seaside and going on a speedboat, but for 90 mins. Seasickness tablets were given out for free and you were never short of water or fizzy drinks and snacks. All in all its worth it when you get there and we had a lovely time.
Totally amazing day the Surin Islands are so beautiful and the surrounding reefs just perfect and pristine. Sea Star operates a five star service from the moment you arrive until second you leave. Amazing friendly and knowledgeable team look after you throughout. Breakfast on arrival, super well organised and ethical operation very safely conscious but not over the top. Three 45 minute snorkels, great lunch on islands, and fast clean boats. Even food and ice cream on your return! The reefs were pristine and so many fish to look at and observe. Brill day out. Special mention to Chris who looked after us. Great value for money.
