Koh Tan and Koh Madsum (Pig Island) lie just off Koh Samui's south coast, a short speedboat hop away, so this charter reaches some of the calmest, most beginner-friendly snorkeling near the island. At Koh Tan the captain anchors right by the reef and you snorkel in clear, shallow water with free mask and fins, looking for tropical fish and coral; the water is gentle enough for children and first-timers. Because it is a private charter you get the reef at your own group's pace, with as much or as little time in the water as you like, before moving on to the Koh Madsum sandbar to see the beach pigs.
