About this tour
Explore Koh Tan and its resident pink dolphins aboard the Red Dragon, a 78-foot teak-built yacht crewed by an on-board chef and English-speaking guide. This 6.5-hour private charter sails at comfortable speeds with room to move, offering snorkelling gear, kayaks, and a floating platform. Your chef prepares lunch from local ingredients whilst you're anchored, making this a flexible, intimate alternative to group tours with proper facilities and safety standards throughout.

What to expect
You'll board a solid, unhurried vessel—nothing speedboat-style. The yacht moves smoothly to Koh Tan where guides point out dolphins from the deck or whilst snorkelling in shallow waters. Underwater visibility and coral health vary with season; guides know the safest, most productive spots. Between swims, relax on deck with fresh fruit and cold drinks. Around midday, the chef serves lunch in the dining area or on deck. Non-swimmers stay comfortable on the netted raft. Kayaking is optional and costs extra. You finish back at your hotel by late afternoon.
Good to know
Bring sun protection and a light wrap for breeze on deck. Groups over 10 people incur extra charges. Sea kayaking rental is 200 THB per person. Children need adult supervision. The experience suits all fitness levels—dolphins aren't guaranteed, but sightings are common. Water conditions and wind may alter the exact itinerary.
