The stunning Mu Ko Lanta National Park in southern Thailand will reopen to visitors on October 15, 2022, following its annual restoration. The nearby Pimalai Resort & Spa offers exclusive small-group excursions to two of the region's most idyllic islands – Koh Haa and Koh Rok.

This tropical paradise closes for six months each year to allow its delicate ecosystem to recover and regenerate. The Pimalai Resort & Spa fully supports this closure and works with local authorities to protect and preserve the area.

Mu Ko Lanta National Park is a breathtaking natural paradise – 134 square kilometers of turquoise water, pristine islands, hidden bays and enchanting coastlines in the southern Thai province of Krabi.

The Koh Haa snorkeling and sunset adventure takes travelers to Koh Haa (Five Islands) – a charming cluster of limestone islands surrounding an azure lagoon, a vibrant coral reef, and a white sand beach. It's the perfect spot for an afternoon of swimming and snorkeling. On the relaxing boat ride back to Pimalai, passengers are served canapés and refreshing drinks, including wine and beer, as the sun sets over the Andaman Sea.

The idyllic Koh Rok tour is a scenic one-hour boat trip to Koh Rok, a pair of islands with sandy beaches and warm, crystal-clear water. After an hour of swimming and snorkeling, guests enjoy a delicious lunch on board before embarking on a sightseeing cruise around Koh Rok, where they have another opportunity to swim and explore the underwater world.

“At Pimalai, we feel a deep connection to Mu Ko Lanta National Park and bear a great responsibility for its preservation for future generations. That's why we regularly conduct coastal clean-up operations, prohibit motorized water sports, and only allow small, environmentally friendly excursions in the region. We are delighted to be able to welcome our environmentally conscious guests back to this pristine paradise in October. After five months of abundant rainfall and without human intervention, this idyllic area will be more breathtaking than ever,” said Charintip Tiyaphorn, representative of the owner of Pimalai.

The seven boats of the Pimalai fleet are all piloted by professional captains who have in-depth local knowledge.

Pimalai offers early booking discounts of 10 to 30 percent on bookings made by October 31, 2023. Prices start at 6652 THB (approx. 270 AUD) per night including daily breakfast and round-trip airport transfers from Krabi for two people.
