Great Swinton Island

Explore the dream-like island of Great Swinton, known as Kyun Pila in Burmese. Relax on deserted beaches of golden sand fringed by clear waters. This is heaven on earth. World class beaches surround the coastline here, relax on our favourite beach, lining the sweeping bay on the western tip of the island. Hike up the mountain on the island’s south east corner to take in stunning views. Play pool against the islanders. Paddleboard in the bay still, warm waters.

Clara Island

Far away from the mainland, Clara Island offers astonishingly clear waters, ideal for snorkelling and scuba diving. On the western side off the island, choose from two picture-postcard perfect beaches close to a good anchorage on gently shelving sand. On the southeast of the island, spot baby black tip reef sharks swimming in the shallow water in front of the beach. The sharks use this as a nursery until they grow big enough for the deeper water of the reef to become predators. You can also see turtle tracks here, where female turtles have swum in on a high tide to lay eggs.

Lampi Island

6

Lampi is the largest island in the archipelago, 20nm long and 10nm wide. But while it’s roughly the same size as relatively nearby Singapore (population: 4 million), Lampi is totally uninhabited.

An island of outstanding natural beauty, it has been designated a national park by the government. Endless white sandy beaches stretch out along its coastline, some over 2km long. On the southwest of the island, 3 long beaches are divided by a small freshwater river. At the point where the river hits the sea, walk out along the sandy spit to an adjoining island at low tide. The island’s interior is a carpet of thick rainforest. At high tide, adventurers can navigate two tidal rivers on the west coast by small boat or sea canoe, to take in ancient mangrove trees towering 30m above the ground, as well as Wild Orchids kingfishers, hornbills, white breasted sea eagles and herons.
