There are no beaches or places to land on the island, though there is a hole that passes from one side of the island to the other. The ridge that sticks out from the western side of the island and continues underwater to a depth of 40 meters is the most dived.
Koh Tachai is a small rocky island with a beautiful white sandy beach located about 20 kilometers north of Koh Bon or 40 kilometers from the Similan Islands.

Khao Lak Diving Day Trip
The Kanon speed boat has 4 engines, the newest one! That will take you on day trips to the best dive sites in the Andaman Sea. Our speed boat will leave from our private pier at The Sea Sky Travel Pier (Ban Nam Khem). With a maximum of 24 divers and 6 instructors, we drive with you on daily trips to the three best dive sites in the Andaman Sea: the Richelieu Rock, the Similan Islands, and the Surin Islands. You will make 2 dives for the trip, and after the first dive, the boat will take you to go for lunch, and relax on the island for about an hour, and then the boat will return for a second dive.
The boat will leave 6 days a week. (But it depends on the number of customers on that trip as well). Who just wants to go diving at a destination as soon as possible, easily travel, and have time? Please take a look at your options and contact us with your day trip wish list!
