Just an hour's flight from the teeming streets of Bangkok lies the peaceful islands of Koh Samui and Koh Tao, part of a group of nearly 100 beautiful islands.

Koh Samui, a tropical paradise with a mountainous green interior, long pristine palm-fringed beaches, colourful coral reefs, warm sheltered seas, quaint local villages, coconut plantations and easy-going people with ready smiles; it is one of Thailand's most romantic destinations.

Koh Tao, meaning ‘Turtle Island’, lives up to its name, being the scuba diving destination of choice in Thailand. The crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Thailand surround the perfect white-sand beaches which ring the hilly 21 km² island. The vibrant coral reefs there is home to a wide range of exciting and colourful sea creatures, including turtles, naturally.
