Me and my friends really enjoy the place and the scenery. It's really Instagrammable!! We booked using Klook and we chose the 9am slot, and its like we have the place on our own. There are other people but not crowded, so we really took time to have our photos taken. It's nice to go here in the morning so that it wouldn't be too hot and the natural light are great to take photo.

The pick-up time was announced by email in advance, and the car came right on time. We gathered at the company in Chalong Bay, where we received the reception and tour explanation. About 30 people boarded the speedboat. It took about 30 minutes to get to Racha Island on the speedboat, and the speed was incredible. I hit my head on the wall of the boat several times. There were some older people participating, but they were pretty exhausted. We loved screaming attractions, so it was fun. When we arrived at Racha Island, the beach people and the snorkelers were separated. We participated in snorkeling, and it was fun because there were a wide variety of fish! We also saw Nemo and Dory. After that, we had lunch at the hotel on Racha Island, took a toilet break, and the toilets were clean. Lunch was also delicious at the buffet! After the meal, we relaxed on the beach for about an hour and enjoyed beach snorkeling. There were about two more types of fish than on the boat snorkeling, but I think it's enough for small children. After that, we went to Coral Island, where we could enjoy marine activities. You also need to rent a chair and bring cash. We did beach snorkeling, and just like Racha Island, we saw two kinds of fish. The sea on both islands was very beautiful, the travel time was just right, and the tour guide was very kind and we had a lot of fun!

Excellent park. I recommend everyone to visit. The birds are well-groomed. Just don't forget to take mosquito repellent with you.
