Big kudos to the Thai people that manage the National Park for keeping a healthy balance in between providing tourists with a great experience and preserving the nature. I would recommend this to everyone who is ready to invest 1 full day because this activity is totally worth it! + the snorkeling experience gave us the chance to swim with the sharks (our guide knew where to spot them) and to see the most colorful fish ever”
