Coconut Bay Snorkel (Koh Pu)

7° 50.8′ N · 98° 56.3′ E

A quiet rocky bay at Koh Pu's northwest corner with coconut palms, shallow water and the island's best shore snorkelling.

Practical

Position from the OpenStreetMap beach (Hat Maphrao, Coconut Beach). Rock View Terrace here rents snorkel masks for 100 THB and sells cold beer (samuiislandexplorer.com; verify locally). Snorkel near high tide; the reef is patchy. Banyan Bay just north is reached only through Banyan Bay Villas.
