11 MayWe slept late to recover from the lack of sleep of the prior day. Packing our bags we headed to our new accommodation we had found the day before and booked. Most of the people who attended the Full Moon Party and opted to stay another day on Koh Pnang to recover would soon flood to Koh Tao and our accommodation options would be severely limited. Heading out to the dive shop we chose our gear for the dive and headed for the longboat, our transit ride to the...

10 May Up at 06h00, we pack our bags, have breakfast and start the 20 minute walk to the pier where we will take the ferry to Koh Tao.

7 MayThe plan was to wake up early and head for the North of Koh Phangan where we planned to do a trek to the waterfall after which we would hire masks & snorkels to explore the reefs. But for some reason neither of us could sleep well the last night, waking up regularly. The result was we didn't leave so early and decided to sleep in till 08h00 postponing our plan to the following day and substituting it with a visit to the South East to visit the locations ...
