Itinerary
- Hotel pickup08:00–08:30
A private air-conditioned vehicle collects you from your accommodation — an earlier window than the shared trip, to maximize the chance of a dolphin sighting.
- Private speedboat departure~09:00
Safety briefing, life jackets for everyone, then an exclusive crossing towards the Khanom coastline, roughly 25–30 minutes.
- Pancake Rock & dolphin search
The captain sets the pace around your group's request — no coordinating with another boat — slowing by the layered Pancake Rock sea cliff and cruising the zone where pink dolphins are seen most often.
- Koh Tan — snorkeling (~20 min)
The boat anchors at the reef off Koh Tan. Mask and snorkel are provided.
