Diving, Freediving, Rock Climbing or Muay Thai? What should I Pick?
How adventurous are you?! Some of our top rated activities are in Koh Tao and they are waiting for you, the tough choice is what to do?!
We know Koh Tao only too well, we started Xtreme Gap here, lived and breathed the life here and so we know how to show you a great time - all over the island and in the water around it. It is a paradise island that you could easily fall in love with, spending months relaxing here. We have the perfect cure for all this laziness, with the following adventure options.
Diving
Koh Tao is one of the most popular places in the world to learn to dive, with the most certifications and diving students in the whole of Asia, so the discover scuba diving option is not a bad idea. After all Koh Tao is the ideal playground to learn to dive. This option allows you to try it out before committing to a full blown course.
Tip: that if you want an open water certificate (the discover scuba is not a certification) then you can also add on a one week dive training course after the Koh Tao Adventure, allowing you to pick some other exciting options!
Freediving
If you are really adventurous, we can hook you up with our Freediving team, ex- champion freedivers who can teach you to dive to 20 metres holding your breath.
Why would you want to? Well check out our video shot in Koh Tao of Xtreme Gap Year´s Oliver freediving with a Whaleshark!
Muay Thai - Most Popular
Muay Thai is one of the most popular Xtreme Gap programmes, it is superb for your fitness and pretty effective for self defence too! Try out the sport with personal training sessions from Muay Thai Champions in our jungle gym!
This option is designed as a taster for the sport. Do not worry it is non contact, and suitable for boys and girls and complete beginners. For more details on what to expect check out our Muay Thai programme.
Abseiling & Rock Climbing
We take you up to the Koh Tao Jungle and show you the best views while you learn all about rock climbing.Fraggle rock is a granite boulder formation jutting out high into the mountain overlooking the whole of Sairee beach. You can´t miss it as the boat pulls into the island.
The views from up there are spectacular, with bright green palm trees and a deep blue sea. You will be taken up there by 4x4 truck and then you will be taught how to abseil off the 23 metre platform by our expert rock climbing team. This is one of the pretties abseils you can do in Asia, and you get a huge sense of satisfaction when you bounce down to the ground.
Then you get your climbing shoes on (literally), you will be taught how to clamber up impossibly steep granite walls. Get you spiderman.
Koh Tao - A Tropical Island Paradise
Why Koh Tao? It is one of the most popular backpacker islands in Thailand for good reason. There is plenty to do, see and the nightlife is superb. You can read more about Koh Tao and all the amazing things there are to do on the island here.
