What to do in Ko Yao
Ko Yao is best known for relaxed island Tours and Water activities, with day trips and sea-based experiences dominating bookings on Klook through the year. Demand peaks in June when island-hopping and boat tours draw the biggest crowds, while March and April are typically very quiet — useful if you want solitude. Klook booking data shows Tours are the top category by volume, followed by Water activities, so plan around those rhythms. Decide whether you want peak-season atmosphere or a quieter escape. Based on Klook booking data.
When to visit Ko Yao
June is the busiest month for Ko Yao on Klook, with demand rising sharply, while March and April are the quietest months. Prices move unevenly: the median price drifts around SGD 30 during the busier months but spikes later in the year, with December the priciest and August the most affordable. Where demand and price align, expect both higher atmosphere and higher typical prices; in quieter months you can often find lower prices and fewer crowds. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider August or the very quiet months; for peak-season atmosphere aim for June or July.

Tips for travellers from Singapore
Most travellers book Ko Yao experiences at short notice: about 1 day ahead, with the earliest planners booking around 6 days out. That means you can often remain flexible and pick things a day or two before travel, but in June — the peak month — booking earlier pays as availability tightens. Use Klook to lock in sea tours and water activities a few days ahead when you travel from Singapore, and check prices across the quieter months if you want lower median rates.
