About Mu Ko Ang Thong National Park
Located in the Gulf of Thailand in Surat Province, Antong Islands National Marine Park was established in 1980 and is a charming, colorful and popular marine park consisting of 42 small islands covering an area of 102 square kilometers with only 12 square kilometers of land area.
The Marine Park is home to charming islets, silvery white beaches, clear waters, blue skies, lush forests, jagged cliffs, hidden lagoons and a wide variety of wildlife, which together make up the park’s most beautiful and pleasant natural landscape. Walking into Ocean Park is like walking into a tropical paradise, where not only is it peaceful and relaxing, but also comfortable and pleasant, allowing every visitor to deeply appreciate the vastness of the ocean, the boundlessness of the beach and the charm of the island. Visitors can stroll along the beach to enjoy the sea view, lie on the beach to sunbathe, take a boat to explore the island, and even dive into the bottom of the sea to see the underwater world. In such an elegant environment, even if you do nothing but quietly close your eyes and listen to the song of the sea is also a great enjoyment.

Tips
Samui’s airport, which was only opened in 1989, was built with investment from Bangkok Airways, and as such, Samui’s air rights belong to Bangkok Airways. The flight from Bangkok to Samui takes about 80 minutes and is extremely intensive, with an average of one flight every 40 minutes to one hour. In addition, the flight from Phuket to Koh Samui takes about 50 minutes and there are two convenient flights per day.
