Sail Rock: Koh Tao or Koh Phangan — Which Departure Should You Choose?

Posted on 30 Apr at 4:48 pm
diving Koh Tao — Sail Rock dive site — The Divers Boat

Few centres on Koh Tao can say this: The Divers Boat dives Sail Rock every day of the week, from two different islands. Koh Tao or Koh Phangan — the site is the same, but the journey, the schedule and the trip type change. Here’s how to choose.

🚤 From Koh Tao (Mae Haad)
Blue boat · about 2 hours travel
Double Sail Rock: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday & Sunday
Ultimate 3S (Southwest Pinnacle + Sail Rock + Shark Island): Monday, Wednesday & Saturday
Reachable 4 days out of 7, or all 7 counting the 3S
🚤 From Koh Phangan
Red boat · about 1h15 travel
Double Sail Rock: every day, 10am–4pm
No 3S combo offered from Koh Phangan
The shortest route there

Sail Rock departure: Koh Tao or Koh Phangan?

✅
Choose Koh Tao if you’re staying there, if you want to try the 3S combo (three sites in one day), or if you want the widest choice of days during the week.
✅
Choose Koh Phangan if you’re staying there (Full Moon Party, a yoga retreat…), if you’d rather skip the ferry crossing to Koh Tao, or if you want to go on any day — it’s offered there 7 days a week.
✅
It’s the same site, the same dive — only the journey and the schedule change depending on where you depart from.
