Emerald Pool: Krabi
In Krabi province, very often, natural attractions are named in a hyperbolic way. The water you will find inside the Emerald Pool varies from sapphirine blue to emerald green, due to its chemical compositions which consists of the mixture of calcium carbonate, magnesium and minerals. The Emerald Pool compound is under the supervision of the Khao Pra-Bang Kharm Wildlife Sanctuary.
Discover: the small natural sunken basins filled with emerald green water are the main attraction. There are also short, easy nature trails cutting through the tropical rain forest. Here is the only place in Thailand the near-extinct birtds Gurney’s Pitta are found.
Feel: the calm after getting out of busy Krabi. Since you disengage yourself from the crowd and follow the nature trails, the experience can be peaceful and even meditative.

Tarutao Island: Satun
Tarutao is the fifth largest island of Thailand and was chosen as a penal colony because of the raging storms during the monsoon season, and its saltwater crocodiles, and shark-infested sea. The island is a perfect combination of sea and forest. Once you set foot inside the Park area, on your right is the long stretch of fine, white sandy Phante Malaka Beach and on your left is the lush forested hills.
Discover: Tarutao has an interesting history. It was a penal colony both for common and political prisoners during the 30’s and 40’s. It was also the den of pirates who once plagued the Malacca Strait.
Feel: the island is a rustic but pleasant destination. It is reasonably comfortable, with electricity available from 6 pm, to midnight. But who needs a fan when you can get a constant sea breeze.

Raksawarin Hot Springs: Ranong
In Raksarawin Park, hot springs gush sixty five degrees Celsius mineral water to the surface year round. There are three separate pools in which to enjoy the healthful minerals contained in the spring water-the Mother Pool, the Father pool, and the Child Pool. As you submerge yourself, note the lusciousness of the emerald green mountains, which is greatly amplified by the cool misty rains that are present 8 months of the year.
Discover: tucked away in lush green mountains, Ranong’s mineral-rich hot springs offer relaxation and health benefits. But frequent rains here also mean that the surrounding forests are bursting with life and color.
Feel: relaxation is only the first step. Then come the rejuvenation and the pleasure of Thai Wellness. Remember that Earth, Water, Wind and Fire are the four basic elements of our body…and that for the Thais, the soul and spirits reside within us.

Similan and Surin Archipelagos: Phang-nga
One of the most entertaining activities after you finish your sessions of diving in these archipelagos is when you open your tropical reef and fish guides. And not just only the tiny ones swimming in a dazzling huge school, those solitary giants also grace in the Archipelagos with their frequent presence. Surin and Similan Archipelagos are blessed with numerous rocks and pinnacles that are home and feeding grounds to the gargantuan Whale Shark.
Discover: whenever you look at the list of the world’s best dive sites, Similan and Surin Archipelagos invariably appear among the top ten. Here you have a very fat chance of spotting creatures dreamt of by every diver, the majestic Manta Ray, the gentle giant Whale Shark, and the curious sea turtles.
Feel: both Marine National Parks are well managed in terms of visitor reception, with reasonably comfortable accommodation and well-stocked canteens. Mu Ko Surin NP is well-known for its environmental practices.
