A hidden lagoon accessible only by swimming through a cave, known for its stunning emerald-colored water on Koh Mook island in Thailand.
Tips from the community
If you get antsy after a few days of seaside leisure, you can get down and dirty in some caves. Tham Mai Kaew is a big cave structure that’s easy to get lost in (but one of the best things to do while in Thailand). Tourists aren’t allowed in without one of the local guides, but the trip is definitely worth it if you like adventure. You’ll have to squeeze through narrow passages, scramble up steep rocks, and navigate rickety bamboo ladders.
Tiger Cave is an easier option for the casual cave-goer. You don’t need a guide, although it’s still possible to get lost. It’s on route to Khlong Jak Waterfall, so lots of travelers make a day of visiting the two before heading to the southern beaches.
