The four islands

In this order — the cave first, while the tide is right

Emerald Cave, Koh Mook, Trang
10:30 · The one people come for

1. Emerald Cave, Koh Mook

You swim through a dark tunnel in the cliff and come out on a hidden beach ringed by jungle walls, open only to the sky. Non-swimmers are fine — everyone wears a life jacket and the guide pulls you through on a rope.

White sand and clear water at Koh Kradan
12:00 · Lunch & beach time

2. Koh Kradan

White sand, water clear enough to see your feet, and a living reef right off the beach. Buffet lunch is served on the boat here, then you have time to swim, snorkel and take photos.

Snorkelling at Koh Cheuak, Trang
13:30 · Best snorkelling stop

3. Koh Cheuak

Big schools of fish around the rock — this is the stop children talk about afterwards, because there are simply so many fish. Snorkelling gear is provided.

Clear turquoise water at Koh Waen, Trang
14:30 · Last stop

4. Koh Waen

Anemone gardens with clownfish living in them — an easy, gentle snorkel to end the day before the boat turns back for Pak Meng.

It is simply how people cook here
Over 90% of the island communities around the Trang sea are Muslim.
Changing rooms
Available both on the boat and on the island.

Getting to Trang

Most of our foreign guests already live in Thailand — no visa run, no international flight

Flying in? In order of how easily you can reach the pier from each airport: Trang (closest by far), then Krabi, Hat Yai, Bangkok (fly on to Trang) and Phuket. Tell us which airport you land at and we will tell you what time to set off so you make the 08:30 check-in.
Train or bus works too. Trang has its own railway station and intercity coach services, so you can come from Bangkok or anywhere along the southern line without flying at all.
Stay in Trang town the night before, not at the pier. Pak Meng is very quiet after dark and has no convenience store. Trang town has plenty of restaurants and shops, and the famous Trang dim sum shops open from 5am. Trang town is 35–40 km from the pier, and our shuttle collects you from your hotel there at 08:00 for 300 THB per person, so you never have to drive the last 40 km yourself.
Driving up from Malaysia? Hat Yai to the pier is about 187 km, roughly 3 hours by road; Satun is about 220 km, roughly 3.5 hours.
Coming as a group? We arrange private charters — long-tail boats, tour boats and speedboats — for families, schools, companies and tour agents, with a written quotation. Message us your group size and date.

Questions we get asked

Anything else, just message us

What exactly does 1,150 THB cover?

The boat and guide for the whole day, halal buffet lunch on board, snorkelling gear, a life jacket, drinking water, ice and fruit, Trang coffee and cake, accident insurance, free underwater photos, and the 200 THB national park entry fee that foreign visitors have to pay. Children aged 3–11 are 800 THB, also with their park fee included, and children under 3 travel free.

Does anyone on the boat speak English?

Yes — your guide speaks English and looks after you for the whole trip, so you can ask questions, follow the safety briefing and know what happens next at every island.

我们可以用中文沟通吗? Can we talk in Chinese?

Yes. Our team includes a Chinese-speaking guide with a tourism degree, so you are welcome to message us in Chinese and book in Chinese. A Chinese-speaking guide can also join you on the boat — that depends on the schedule for your date, so tell us when you want to travel and we will confirm whether we can arrange it. Every trip has an English-speaking guide either way.

I am vegetarian. Is there food for me?

Please read this before you book. Lunch on the boat is a halal seafood buffet — it is built around fish and seafood, and our kitchen is not set up to cook a separate vegetarian meal. Fresh fruit is served, but once the boat leaves the pier there is nowhere to buy anything else. If you eat strictly vegetarian, tell us when you book and you are very welcome to bring your own food on board. We would rather tell you now than have you go hungry at sea.

Boleh cakap Bahasa Melayu? Can we talk in Malay?

Boleh. We have guides who speak Bahasa Melayu, and you are welcome to message us and book in Malay. Whether a Malay-speaking guide is on your boat depends on the schedule for your date, so tell us your date and we will confirm before you pay. Rarely, on a very quiet day, a trip is combined with our partner boat — same standard, and the food is halal there too. Every trip has an English-speaking guide either way. There is a full Malay version of this page at lintangtour.com/ms.

I can't swim. Can I still go into the Emerald Cave?

Yes, and plenty of our guests can't. Every passenger wears a life jacket, and the guide takes you through the dark part of the tunnel holding a rope, so you are pulled along rather than swimming. Tell us at check-in and a guide will stay with you.

Is it suitable for children and older parents?

Yes. Children love the snorkelling stops at Koh Cheuak and Koh Waen because there are so many fish, and everyone wears a life jacket the whole time. Anyone who prefers to stay dry can sit on the boat and watch — it is shaded and comfortable.

Is the food halal?

Yes. The buffet lunch is halal and cooked by Muslim cooks. Over 90% of the island communities around the Trang sea are Muslim, so halal cooking is the local norm here rather than a special arrangement.

When are the islands open?

The main season runs 1 October to 31 May with the full itinerary. Between 1 June and 31 August the islands open only when the National Park Department announces it for that year — this changes from year to year with sea conditions, and the itinerary may visit different islands. September is closed every year.

What happens if the sea is too rough?

If the Marine Department suspends sailing or a storm comes in, we refund your deposit in full. Our team contacts you before the trip if anything changes.

How do I pay? I don't have a Thai bank account.

You don't need one, and you don't need to ask a Thai friend to pay for you. Message us on WhatsApp or LINE, tell us your date and how many people, and we will agree a payment method that actually works for you before your trip. Our team confirms the exact total for your group first, so there are no surprises. Once it is settled we send your booking details and the pier location.

Do you take large groups and issue invoices?

Yes. We handle schools, universities, companies, government departments and tour agents, and we issue written quotations and receipts. Send us your group size, travel date and what you need, and our team will put a quotation together.
