If the regular Four Islands trip feels a bit morning-person, this one’s for you. The 7 Islands tour leaves in the afternoon, hits the classic stops, feeds you on the beach at sunset and ends with a night swim in glowing plankton. Total festival energy, but on a boat.

The stops
Listings vary a little by operator, but the Klook itinerary covers:
- Snorkelling at Yawasam
- Chicken Island, named for the rock that looks like a chicken’s head
- The Koh Mor and Tup sandbar, walkable at low tide
- Tang Ming
- Koh Poda for sunset and a buffet dinner
- Plankton swim near Koh Raeng after dark
The sandbar overlaps with the Four Islands tour. The difference is the timing: you’re out for golden hour and the dark.
Is it worth it over Four Islands?
If you want sunset and plankton, yes. If you want quiet beaches, take the morning Four Islands or the Hong Islands tour. Plankton glows best on dark nights, so a full moon can mute it.
What to bring
Cash for the park fee, a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, a light layer for the ride back, and a waterproof bag for your phone.
