About This Tour
The Hong Islands Tour is a spectacular and tranquil half-day or full-day excursion from Krabi, offering a quieter, more intimate encounter with the region’s stunning geological and marine beauty compared to more crowded destinations. The name “Hong” translates to “room” in Thai, aptly describing the tour’s main feature: hidden lagoons and secluded coves enclosed by towering limestone cliffs. This tour is highly recommended for those seeking pristine swimming spots and stunning photography opportunities away from the crowds.
The main stop is often Hong Island Lagoon, a breathtaking circular lagoon accessible only through a narrow passage. Once inside, visitors are surrounded by vertical, moss-covered karst walls and calm, shallow emerald waters, creating a unique and tranquil natural “room.” The tour also includes visiting Daeng Island (Red Island), a quiet snorkeling spot known for its vibrant red-hued cliffs and abundant marine life.
A key highlight is Pakbia Island and Lading Island (Paradise Island), both renowned for their soft, white sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Unlike other tours, the focus here is on the untouched natural environment and peaceful relaxation. The Hong Islands Tour provides a truly restorative escape and showcases the exquisite, unspoiled side of the Andaman Sea.
