Snorkeling Adventure at Koh Chang – Departing from Koh Chang

Snorkeling Adventure at Koh Chang is an 8-hour trip from Bang Bao Pier, with the boat visiting either the HTMS Chang wreck site or the reefs inside Koh Rang National Park, depending on conditions on the day. Hotel pickup brings guests to a shop at the pier first to check in and try on equipment, and the boat leaves the pier around 9am.

The boat carries scuba divers, freedivers, and snorkellers on the same trip, which keeps mixed-activity groups together rather than splitting them across separate departures. Groups are capped at 10 people, and the listing rates the trip as moderate difficulty rather than easy.

The $31 price includes hotel pickup and drop-off, a guide, snorkeling equipment, lunch, snacks, and drinks including coffee and tea. It does not cover the Koh Rang Marine Park entry fee — 200 THB per snorkeler, paid separately, since national park fees aren’t included in the tour price.

At 4.7 stars from 131 reviews, this trip has one of the larger review counts among Koh Chang snorkeling operators, giving a reasonably reliable read on what to expect.

Sun protection matters more here than on a typical beach day — hours on open water with reflected glare mean the back and legs burn fastest, and shade on a shared dive-and-snorkel boat is limited.

Watch out: Koh Rang Marine Park’s 200 THB snorkeler fee isn’t included in the tour price — bring cash to cover it on the day.
