Preservation and conservation are important activities on a small island like Koh Tao. 🌴

With its beautiful natural environment a major drawcard, conservation initiatives are increasingly important.✔

This video shows that diving into the breath taking Shark Bay, you can experience the magic of snorkeling alongside Sea Turtles and Black Tip Reef Sharks. 💥

Our recent snorkel sessions, captured beautifully by Black Turtle Dive's conservation initiatives, showcase the healthy recovery of marine life and coral growth in this area.🙏

Located on the west side of the island, the roads throughout Mae Haad are good and there are also trekking paths to follow to Jansom Bay and Sai Nuan beach.⛱⛱

The bay itself has a relatively large, yet quiet beach, that stretches north and south of the pier. ✔

The water in the bay is very clean, despite the fact this is the location of the main pier where all the ferries that visit Koh Tao arrive.😍

If you decide to swim in this area, please take extra precautions as longtail boats in addition to other boat traffic manoeuvre in this area.💥

Koh Nang Yuan is a separate island located off the North West coast of Koh Tao. 🙌

A unique location and one of the most beautiful islands in the world, Koh Nang Yuan actually consists of three separate islands that are connected by a sand bar.👍🌴

The island is accessible by a 30-minute long-tail boat ride from Koh Tao and there is a daily Lomprayah service from Koh Samui, Chumphon and Koh Phangan that drops visitors off.😍

There are picture-perfect views of Chalok Baan Kao bay and Thian Og bay (Shark bay), as well as a view across to the hilly north side of the island.🌴

On a clear day you can also see over to Koh Phangan and Koh Samui as well as down to the shallow coral reefs through the crystal clear water in the bays.💥

John-Suwan viewpoint is popular so can get a little crowded depending on the time of day and the weather conditions.👌

Choosing to visit there early in the morning, or late in the afternoon, can help you to avoid peak times as well as reduce the effects of heat and humidity.🌞

World Oceans Day, celebrated each year on June 8th, gives us a moment to reconnect with this immense, life sustaining force.🐟

While providing awareness the day helps to educate ourselves about the threats facing our oceans and the importance of responsible diving practices. ✔

With events such as dive against debris and educational workshops these events celebrate and promote protecting our oceans for future generations. ♻

Beneath its surface lies not just coral reefs and mysterious trenches but also the very threads that tie climate systems together.🙏

Sai Nuan beach is made up of two beaches known as Sai Nuan 1 and Sai Nuan 2 that are approximately 75metres apart but both are easily accessible by foot from Mae Haad or by longtail boat.💥

You can hike from Mae Haad pier and walk South along the road parallel to the beach then follow the trail through Jansom Bay and Charm Churee Villas along the path through the jungle to arrive at Sai Nuan beach.⛱

Sai Nuan is relatively unspoilt in comparison to some of the busier beaches on the island, and is less developed and more laid-back.😍

Located on the Southern tip of Koh Tao, Freedom beach is one of the most secluded and laid-back beaches, but is still accessible by a rough concrete road.👍

Roughly a 15-minute drive from Sairee, the beach is just a 2-minute walk from the car park.✔
