Altogether there are 42 islands which make up the archipelago of Koh Samui but Ang Thong itself means “golden basin”. It gets its name from the natural wonder and green lagoon on the island Koh Mae Koh, which we will visit as part of this trip.

This 100-square kilometre marine preservation area is the jewel in the crown of the Gulf of Thailand. As one of the best day trips from Koh Samui, this natural wonder is just an hour and a half away. Not too far and not too near, as the cruise and journey there is half the fun.
