things to do on koh tao

	snorkeling You can snorkel with Master Divers or book one of the many trips available – just ask at your resort of nearest travel agent. You can hire your own longtail too which will take you where you want to go or you can jump on a taxi to one of Koh Taos beaches.
	10 Pin Bowling, Mini Golf & driving range Just a few minutes along the main road from Mae Haad to Chalock Baan Kao, Steve runs a 10 Pin Bowling alley and mini golf too. This is great for a bit of a giggle and something different – its open all day and evening too (apart from Monday) – so you can catch a game whenever you want! Steve has just opened a driving range too for those of you who take your golf a little more seriously. If all that putting has worked up and appetite then Steve’s restaurant serves DIY pizza, chill con carne and great lasange too.
	Free Diving Free diving is diving without a tank, not without paying! If you want to learn this amazing sport then we have one of the best in the sport on Koh Tao. Monica has dived to over 60m and taught many people to free dive safely. Ayesha photographed her for an article in the Bangkok Airways Magazine, Fah Thai. You’ll find her shop, Apnea Total, on Sairee Beach in between Seashell Resort and Sairee Cottage.
	Flying Trapeze Adventures Located in Sairee there is a full size trapeze rig and the team offer hour classes and courses too which ensure you’ll be flying through the air with the greatest of ease.

	Captain Nemos Pool Hall Wanna play pool?.. then Captain Nemos Pool Hall is where you need to go. It’s in Mae Haad. Walk up the hill from the Safety Stop and Cafe Del Sol and Nemos is half way up on the left hand side.
	Kayaking Kayaks can be rented from Master Divers and most beaches on Koh Tao. We particularly like kayaking from Master Divers and exploring the southern bays all the way around to the headland just before Chalok. More information about beaches can be found here.
	Walking There are some great walks, just remember to set off early and take plenty of water and money to buy more if heading to a beach. Leaving Sairee by the road that runs passed the boxing stadium, you have a number of walks to make. The first one is sign posted off to the right after te boxing stadium and just as the road starts to turn to the left and get steeper. This leads to Leam Tien – it’s our favourite walk as it’s quite leafy and shady. There is a monster hill though and there aren’t really views until you get there. The resort here closed around half a year ago which means the road has overgrown but still passable. There are no facilities when you get there so be sure to take enough water and a snack too. However there is a road leaving this one on the right – if you are adventurous then you can follow this to a view point. The roads to Hin Wong and Mango Bay are found by just continuing on the road passed the boxing stadium. Mango Bay is a sign posted left turn and for Hin Wong you carry straight on. Theres also a lovely coastal walk from Master Divers which explores the coastline almost all the way to Chalock Baan Kao.
	Cooking and Massage Courses Massage and cooking courses are available – check back here for details.
	Queens Cabaret If you’ve not checked out one of Thailand’s infamous lady-boy shows then why not check out the Queens Cabaret. Dont be scared – its great fun! Ayesha slipped backstage to bring you an article describing just what goes on back stage. This is located in Sairee, right next to Barracuda.
	Rock Climbing If you fancy rock climbing or cliff jumping then head to see Charly and Tim at Good Time Adventures. You’ll find them on the south end of Sairee Beach in between AC and Fishbowl.
	Yoga There are two yoga schools on the island. One is located at Sensi Paradise in Mae Haad – just along the beach from Master Divers. In Sairee, head to Blue Wind – just walk a few mins passed the 7-11 on the main road and you will find them on the left hand side.
	Muay Thai (thai boxing) and Gym Leave the 7-11 on the main road in Sairee and walk up the hill. After about 10-15mins you’ll find the stadium and gym. There are regular fights, watch out for flyers, regular classes and longer courses too. The gym has different options for you too – so pop in.
	island to island zip line Fly between the two peaks of Koh Nangyuan on a zipline. What better location could there be to fuel your adrenaline and fly across the beautiful waters around Koh Nangyuan. Trips leave both morning and afternoon and can include time on the island to relax and snorkel too. Contact Charly and Tim at Good Time Adventures on Sairee Beach for more information.
	aqua aerobics & swim classes Splashdance and Swim is run by our good friend Nicki. In water aerobics is great fun, classes run three times a week and you might find us there. She also runs kids swim classes from 4 months old to 5yrs old too. Older children and adults can be taught upon request too. Classes are run at Regal Resort – contact us for further information.
