Discover the perfect itinerary for Koh Tao on a budget! This travel guide helps you experience paradise without breaking the bank.
Day 1
Tonate bay beach
Tonate Bay Beach is the perfect place for those wanting a more secluded escape! The crystal water makes this a great spot to snorkel, soak up the sun, and cliff jump. The rock to cliff jump includes a rope to climb up which makes this even more thrilling! This is a must visit for adventure seekers.
Shark Bay Beach
Another lovely beach on Koh Tao! Shark Bay is known for the incredible marine life and clear waters. The water has many turtles and small sharks to see which makes this a great snorkel spot! The turtles and sharks are harmless but fascinating to observe! There are also beautiful coral reefs surrounded by colorful fish.
Sunset dinner on sairee beach
Sairee beach is the most accessible beach on Koh Tao and has many budget dining options! I highly suggest 995 Duck. It is both cheap and delicious.
Day 2
hike jon suwan viewpoint
Jon Suwan Viewpoint is a beautiful hike that offers amazing views of the island. It takes about 20–30 minutes to reach the top and I suggest going in the morning or evening to avoid the heat. Once you reach the top, you can enjoy breathtaking views of Chalok and Shark Bay! The viewpoint is a must-visit for nature lovers.
Freedom Beach
Freedom Beach in Koh Tao is a secluded beach known for its soft white sand and crystal-clear waters. This beautiful small offers a peaceful escape with excellent snorkeling opportunities! There are colorful coral reefs. This is a perfect spot to relax!
Queen’s Cabaret
Queen’s Cabaret is an amazing drag show in Sairee Beach! The entrance is free but requires a purchase of a drink making this a great budget activity. The cabaret features talented performers showcasing lively dances, elaborate costumes, and engaging lip-sync routines.
Day 3
Day trip to koh nang yuan
I highly suggest a day trip to Koh Nang Yuan which is a beautiful island near Koh Tao with crystal-clear waters, powdery white sand, and marine life. Visitors can snorkel in the colorful coral reefs, relax on the sandbar, or hike the viewpoint. Visitors to this island are limited making the island peaceful and unique.This island is a two hour boat ride from Koh Tao. It is a great day destination!
Explore nightlife
Koh Tao is a popular destination for yound backpackers making many great nightlife options! I suggest checking out Sairee Beach and exploring the bars there. Many have cheap drinks and it is fun to meet other travelors!
