If my best friend would ask me "which island in Thailand should I visit?" I would definitely recommend Ko Tao with no doubt. Why? It has everything you need and it has vibes that you cannot find in the famous sisters islands: Koh Phangan & Koh Samui. It’s known for the best beaches in Thailand with crystal clear water and soft sand ideal for swimming & snorkelling. We lived there for a month ‘cause we really wanted to feel like a local and explore most of the places. In this guide made for slow travellers like me I’ll recommend you: • where to stay to enjoy the best beaches • delicious vegetarian/vegan restaurants & cafe • sustainable survival shops & souvenirs • how to be part of the community even if only for a short time • and much more I wish you to experience Thailand in the most genuine way to come back home full of life. 🫶🏻 ***Don't forget to download Thatch app to access full features and to save this map for future use!
