Koh Nangyuan, Thailand

June 17

Koh Nangyuan is about a 15 minute ferry ride from Ko Tao and is made up of three small islands that are connected by a sand dune. There are 3 ferries a day there and back from Ko Tao, and the last one comes back pretty early. After this time boats are not allowed to go back and forth. We decided to go over pretty late and brought the snorkeling stuff. I think we had about an 1.5 hours until the return ferry! This turned out to be the most beautiful beach that I saw in Thailand. The sand or lack there of was really rocky, but the water was a amazing. Really shallow coral. I was just sitting in the shallow and could see all the marine life swimming past me. Florian went out deeper to snorkel around, and accidentally cut up his foot. It was a mini-freak out, as this island is tiny with only one resort and one shop. I was virtually running all over the island to find a first aid kit! Alas, I found something and got him on the boat back safely.
