Koh Tan, Koh Madsum (Pig Island) & Five Islands
Discover the tropical beauty of the south coast of Koh Samui aboard Independence Yacht. This private sailing experience combines hidden islands, snorkelling in crystal-clear waters, gourmet food experience onboard, and unforgettable sunset moments at sea.
Unlike commercial speedboat tours, we avoid crowded tourist spots whenever possible and take you to quiet beaches, scenic anchorages, and relaxed snorkelling locations around Koh Tan and Koh Madsum (Pig Island).
Weather and sea conditions permitting, this experience also includes a complete circumnavigation of Koh Samui, allowing guests to discover remote coastlines, hidden bays, and panoramic island scenery rarely seen from land.
Enjoy a full day of sailing, island hopping, snorkelling, beach exploration, and mediterranean hospitality onboard our private yacht.
During the tour, there is also the possibility to spot pink dolphins around the Five Islands area if sea conditions are favourable.
Island hopping Samui-style
An island-hopping tour around the southern waters of Koh Samui perfectly connects seven distinct islands into a seamless, high-contrast loop. The journey typically begins with a cruise past the Five Islands (Koh Si Koh Ha), a dramatic cluster of five individual, razor-sharp limestone islets—Koh Thalu, Koh Din, Koh Chetta Mun, Koh Mae Koh, and Koh Malaeng Pong. Because these steep cliffs are protected sanctuaries for nesting swifts, they remain strictly off-limits for foot traffic, serving instead as a spectacular, photogenic backdrop for sightseeing as your boat glides past.
From the rugged cliffs, the itinerary shifts to the welcoming shorelines of the two inhabited “sister islands” resting right off Koh Samui’s southernmost tip. Koh Tan acts as the ultimate activity hub, where travellers plunge into the vibrant coral reefs for snorkelling or trek along the island’s forested nature trails. Just a stone’s throw away across a shallow channel lies Koh Madsum (popularly known as “Pig Island”), a low-lying sandy paradise where guests can kayak, unwind on the beach, and interact with the famous, free-roaming resident pigs.
Combining these seven islands offers a diverse mix of pristine wildlife photography, underwater adventure, and beachside relaxation, making it a signature package for local operators.
