Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

This is all about speedboats. If you want to travel from Koh Lanta to the surrounding islands and snorkeling spots, this operator is the perfect choice, as these places are difficult to reach independently and almost impossible without a boat. Day trips and transfers are their specialty.

My tip: Before you arrive, check out the routes on opalspeedboat.com so you have a general idea of ​​which islands you'd like to visit and what's included in each package. The peak season runs from about November to April, when the Andaman Sea is calmest and the boats run most regularly. During this time, popular tours book up quickly. Therefore, it's best to book in advance rather than hoping for last-minute bookings the day before. Outside of these months, weather and sea conditions determine whether a tour takes place, and no operator can guarantee anything different.
