Koh Kra Reef
6° 29.6′ N · 99° 18.8′ E
A tiny islet just off Sunrise Beach whose fringing reef is the classic Lipe snorkel — close enough to reach by dinghy or even a long swim from the beach.
Practical
Dive-the-world describes 'Gra Island' as within swimming distance of Lipe with wonderful coral and fish life; Wikipedia lists Koh Usen and Koh Kra as popular boat trips from Lipe. Use the dinghy from Sunrise Beach or Anchorage D and tie off clear of coral. Longtail traffic is heavy between the islets and Sunrise Beach, so tow a float. Park rules apply: no feeding fish, no touching or standing on coral.
Best for
Easy dinghy snorkel from the Lipe anchorages
