About Mu Ko Ang Thong National Marine Park
Mu Ko Ang Thong National Marine Park is an island-studded marine park reached from Koh Samui by boat. Its limestone cliffs, hidden coves and coral-rich waters create a scenic setting for kayaking, snorkelling and swimming. Visitors can climb to viewpoints on Ko Mae Ko for views over the emerald Thale Nai lagoon, or hike on Ko Wua Talap for broad panoramas across the archipelago. The park’s beaches offer quieter places to pause between activities, while a small restaurant operates near the park headquarters on Ko Wua Talap.
