Description

Rocky resort is in Shark Bay & Sai Daeng on Koh Tao’s south-east coast, where small coves meet a quieter stretch of the island. Steps lead from the resort into the bay, and Shark Bay Beach is 50 m away. Ao Thian is 200 m away, with turtles at 350 m and Snorkel beach at 400 m. The setting is known for shallow-water swimming and views across the bay.

Koh Tao has no airport, so visitors arrive by boat at Mae Haad on the west coast. Lomprayah Koh Tao Pier is 2.3 km from the resort; a pick-up truck taxi can cover the trip from the pier. Free private parking is available on site for travellers bringing a vehicle. The resort sits on the Ao Thian Og stretch, away from the island’s busier west-coast strip.

For views over the southern coast, Sun Suwan Viewpoint is 550 m away, while Ao Sai Daeng is 600 m away. Ao Leuk is 900 m away and Freedom Beach 2 is 950 m away. Snorkelling in the bay and canoeing are among the activities available at the resort. The south and west coasts, including Shark Bay, are generally calmer from November to March; from April to October, the east coast tends to have calmer conditions.
