After doing some research, I found that going on a tour was more affordable and cost-effective than going on my own. The time spent snorkeling and relaxing on the beach seemed a little short, but I think it's good for people who want to enjoy a remote island casually.

My recent trip to Cham Island (07:30-15:30) was nothing short of rejuvenating. The bus took us from each hotel and journeyed around 45-50 minutes. We then took a small boat from shore and cruised towards the island. From the moment I arrived, I was enveloped by the island’s serene and unspoiled charm and breathtaking beauty. Crystal-clear waters shimmered under golden sunlight, while gentle ocean breezes carried the scent of salt and blossoms. The locals welcomed me with warm smiles and genuine kindness, offering their localities at competitive prices. We first had a short trip to the local sightseeing (lucky well, buddha temple, school). Communication in English was a bit of a nuisance with our guide, however he overcompensated through his facilitating attitude. We then took another motorboat to go snorkeling on a coral coast where we stayed for 20 minutes. The sea floor was breathtaking. This coral reef isn't just a destination—it’s a feeling. It rekindled my sense of wonder, reminded me of nature’s quiet power, and gave me a peace I didn’t know I was missing. We then headed out with the boat to a near tavern, where we tasted certain local, fresh delicacies (lunch price included, see photos). The picturesque environment, the clean and full of sand beaches urged us to dive again. Finally, we enjoyed a coconut fresh drink down by the beach chair. I left with my heart full and my spirit renewed, already dreaming of the day I’ll return.

We saw a lot of fish during snorkeling, the lunch was delicious, and both the guide and the shuttle driver were kind and friendly, so we enjoyed it. The beach itself had a lot of drifting garbage, but it was the garbage we had thrown away, so we were made aware of environmental issues.

My favorite part of this trip is the sea walk. After lunch, you can rest on the beach for 1 hour and 30 minutes. It is worth it. Overall it is great!
