Ko Bubu

Koh Bu Bu is a small island with tropical jungle and rainforest with a beautiful soft sandy beach on the south side. In high season there’s a small private resort with a few bungalows, restaurant and bar available. This is a great spot to stop and relax on the beach for a while. There’s plenty of shade provided by the large tropical trees hanging over the beach. Apart from a few people staying at the small resort, there’s a good chance you and your group will have most of this pristine tropical paradise island to yourselves.

Ko Talabeng

Ko Talabeng is a large mountainous island north of Ko Bubu. massive vertical cliffs go straight down into the water. Surrounding the island, there’s pockets where the water is very shallow, and at low tide some beaches are exposed. There’s a small hidden beach in an inlet that we often stop for lunch. There’s a group of very inquisitive macaque monkey’s that live around the beach, making for some fun photo opportunities.

Ko Talabeng also has an enormous sea cave, which can be easily entered. Inside is a huge limestone cathedral, with the cave ceiling high above you, and stalactites and other rock formations created by 1000’s of years of water dripping through the cave. There’s a huge pillar in the middle of the cave hanging down from the ceiling, that over millennia the ocean has eroded the base so it no longer joins with the cave floor.

Other islands.

On your private longtail trip, be sure to ask your captain for recommendations – there’s a few other small islands between Bubu and Talabeng which are all uninhabited, and we are happy to moor up on these islands so you can explore them at your leisure.
