Koh Tachai (Sirivannavari Island) in the Andaman Sea


In March 2015 the Tachai Island in the Andaman Sea was visited by HRH Princess Sirivannavari and subsequently renamed Sirivannavari Island, much to the delight of the tour and dive operators in Khao Lak.
Some of them immediately paid back the tickets sold to tourists for day trips to this beautiful island as some rumors claimed that the island can not be visited any more without special permit by the Princess.

The solitary Tachai Island lies about halfway between the Similan and Surin Islands in the Andaman Sea, about one and a half hours drive by speedboat from Thap Lamu.

Tachai Island has a beautiful white powdered beach. There is no accommodation available.
There are several dive sites with abundant marine life, the most famous is the plateau. The Tachai Reef extends along the east coast and gently drops from 5 to 30 metres. Manta Rays are often found here, Whale Sharks not so often. Usually divers can also see Leopard Sharks and Jenkin's Rays. Common are also various Barracudas, Batfish, Bluefin Trevally, Snappers, Triggerfish and Fusiliers.
In 2009 Khaolak Highlight Tour made the first trip to Koh Tachai. It was a wonderful day trip to a most beautiful beach with no people around. Gang made a seafood barbecue on the beach and every guest enjoyed this wonderful day trip. Soon other tour agencies copied her trip, started price cutting to get customers and as a consequence this trip became a standard package with the usual Thai service.
