It's the largest island in Tarutao National Marine Park. Quiet and peaceful, you can only hear the waves and the wind. It's a true place to be surrounded by the water and the sky. If you want to just sit idly by the sea, I recommend it.

It's a very peaceful island, but the water might not be as clear as Koh Lipe. The accommodation at the national park is convenient and clean, but the electricity is only available from 6 PM to midnight. The food is delicious, and the staff are lovely.

On the way to Koh Lipe, the boat stops at Koh Tarutao first. Even just there, the view is absolutely stunning! The water is crystal clear, the sand is white, and the sunlight is so bright it's blinding. You'll definitely need sunglasses if you're going, but it's truly beautiful.

We came on a tour group. They stopped along the way for photos, sold water, and had restrooms. It's a quiet island.
