“Did anyone bring their snorkel gear?” a voice rang out, echoing the excitement bubbling among the group as our boat approached Ko Hae. Ko Hae, also known as Coral Island, shimmered under the sun, a jewel in the Andaman Sea. Just a short hop from Phuket, Ko Hae feels like a world away. While it might be geographically close to the bustling energy of Phuket, Ko Hae whispers a different story, a tale of tranquil beauty and underwater wonders. This small island, only about three kilometers long, is draped in lush jungle, fringed by white sand beaches, and surrounded by vibrant coral reefs. Ko Hae boasts two main beaches: Long Beach – a hive of activity – and the quieter Banana Beach. Both offer incredible opportunities to witness the magic of Ko Hae’s underwater realm. The clear turquoise waters reveal a kaleidoscope of marine life darting among the corals. From colorful fish to graceful sea turtles, the reefs around Ko Hae are truly a snorkeler’s paradise. Whether you choose to lounge on the sand, brave the excitement of watersports, or delve beneath the waves to explore the coral gardens, Ko Hae promises a day of adventure and unforgettable memories.
