Over the past
few years access to the island has improved dramatically and
accommodation availability and standards have grown to meet
the increased demand as Koh Tao has become one of the must
stop destinations on the backpacker route around South East
Asia. Many travelers on a stop-over to or from Australia, or
as the major destination of their travels, find Koh Tao
convenient, fun and peaceful. From Bangkok an overnight bus
or train journey brings you to the seaport town of Chumporn
where, other than the ice boat that traditionally supplied
Koh Tao with food and a handful of sturdy backpackers,
regular speed boat and ferry services depart for a direct
link to Koh Tao. Others choose to approach Koh Tao from the
south, flying directly to the nearby island of Koh Samui or
island hopping from the mainland port of Suratthani across
Koh Samui and Koh Phangnan, the site of a famous full moon
party every month. Buddha View Dive Resort runs speed boat
links from both Chumporn and Koh Samui. With an on-site
travel agent and connections with several travel agents in
Bangkok and Koh Samui we are happy and equipped to help you
organize your travel arrangements to and from your holiday
on Koh Tao. |
