 Your guide will meet you at the airport or your hotel in Hat Yai and transfer you to the escort boat. Journey to the sea gypsy island, Ko Lipae and check in to your bungalow.
The big attractions on these outer islands are crystal-clear water, verdant rain forest that grows all the way down to pure white sand beaches, birds, monkeys, and superb snorkeling.We'll paddle around Ko Lipae, stopping periodically to go snorkeling.

| Day 3: Ko Adang - KoRawi - Ko Butang |
 Ko Rawi is our next goal. We'll paddle along the coastline, stopping to explore secluded beaches and to go snorkeling.
Ko Butang and the other small islands in the area provide us with a different feel from the previous days. These islands are small enough to paddle all the way around easily. This is perhaps the best snorkeling day. We've found huge areas of completely undisturbed coral. The marine life is abundant. Huge Moray eels are very common. Large grouper can still be found if you're willing to look under some of the larger coral heads. One area has nice variety of sea anemones. They cover a large portion of a bay.

| Day 4: Ko Butang - Pak Bara - Hat Yai |
 After breakfast, pack up and board the escort boat. On the way back to Pak Bara, there are several islands that are very different from the ones visited already. There's a natural arch on one island that makes for a wonderful photo opportunity. We'll take our time exploring, paddling, and snorkeling before heading back into Pak Bara.
