\nThere really is something for everyone: miles of white sand beaches,
\nsecluded islands and rocky bays.<\/p>\n

    Mu Ko Similan National Park – Koh Tachai<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    \u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Diver’s paradise<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Thailand’s most beautiful island is Koh Tachai, which is part of a national marine park and lies off the coast of Phang Nga.\u00a0As this is a wilderness site, visitors are only allowed to dock as part of a day trip.\u00a0The sand is white and soft as velvet and the water is crystal clear turquoise.\u00a0Besides sunbathing and swimming, visitors enjoy snorkeling, where they can observe colorful corals and fish and more occasionally sea turtles. The island is world famous for its proximity to Tachai Point, a renowned spot for spotting manta rays and leopard sharks.<\/p>\n
