Koh Rok: The first time you hear it... ??
Where is it? What does it look like? Why does everyone want to go?
After this trip, I know why everyone wants to go. Because I went and fell in love with it so much.
Sharing a brief review of my experience on a day trip to Koh Rok and Koh Ha.
Koh Rok is located near Koh Lanta, which is quite far from Phuket, taking approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes to reach by boat (even with calm seas).
Therefore, we departed from Phuket at 7:30 AM. This was a one-day trip departing from the Royal Marina Pier in Phuket.
The pier has a waiting room and offers a light breakfast and free snorkeling equipment (I forgot to take a picture because I was sleepy at the time).
The guide provided a brief overview of the trip before boarding the boat.
The speedboat will comfortably transport us without any feeling of being cramped.
7:30 AM. The boat has departed, and passengers can continue sleeping as the journey is quite long. Today's weather is perfect, which is a pleasant surprise.
We sat and lay down for almost two hours before we finally arrived at Koh Rok. It was quite a distance, haha.
But as soon as I saw it, my drowsiness vanished.
After a long boat ride, we finally arrived at Koh Rok Nok. As the first tour group to arrive, we had the island all to ourselves and were able to take stunning photos without any crowds. The guide gave us 40 minutes to relax, swim, and take photos before heading to Koh Rok Nai for snorkeling.
The outer Rok Island is located inside, while the inner Rok Island is located outside. Huh?
The water is incredibly clear, so clear that you would think you were on Koh Tachai.
It's time to go diving. This time, we'll be diving at Koh Rok Nai (opposite Koh Rok Nok), which is only 5 minutes away. However, the current was quite strong that day, so I wasn't able to take many photos.
The guide informed us that after lunch, we would go snorkeling on the opposite beach, where there are many clownfish. I am so excited!
The lunch was delicious, especially the bakery items and various beverages.
Very clear to extremely clear.
It's time to go diving. Will it be as beautiful and clear as everyone says? The boat came to a stop at a small white beach, not far at all. 555
The water is crystal clear even from the boat, imagine how clear it is when you dive in! Let's follow the guide and explore the stunning clarity of Koh Rok.
Hello again, Mo. We keep bumping into each other on different islands.
After diving at this spot for about an hour, it was time to move on to the next one: the Five Islands.
"Rok Island, you're as beautiful as everyone says you are."
See you next time.
It didn't take long to reach the Five Islands.
It was my first time experiencing the beauty of this place, another popular spot for divers. They say it's stunning.
But my GoPro battery died, so I only managed to capture a few shots. What a shame!
Abundant fish and beautiful coral reefs. This is a perfect place for snorkeling enthusiasts.
After the battery ran out, we boarded the boat and picked up the camera to take pictures. It was beautiful, truly beautiful.
The fun is over. Before returning to the boat, we visited Pileh Lagoon in the Phi Phi Islands. We arrived at the pier around 5:30 PM. At the pier, there was refreshing ice cream available. We packed our things, changed our clothes, and headed back to relax.
Koh Rok, we believe you are truly beautiful. May your beauty last forever.
Nature rarely harms us, but how often do we harm nature?
Thais are very fortunate to have beautiful seas and such stunning natural landscapes.
Every journey has a destination, but the journey itself is never unimportant.
