The Emerald Cave is usually the highlight of the famous 4 island tour and 'a' not to be missed. We bought a snorkelling package at the travel information counter which is located beside our hotel, only 700 Thai Baht per person, snorkelling equipment, breakfast and lunch included.
Emerald Cave is a secret lagoon hidden inside the island of Ko Mook. The only way into this amazing location is to swim 85m through an underwater tunnel that opens out into the secret bay with limestone cliffs soaring high about you on all sides.
We swim in the dark through the cave, which I really enjoyed. Seriously stick with the swim if you're not a great swimmer, it's not that long and entirely worth it. Coming out the other end is breathtaking. Sparkling clear water, white sand beach, surrounded by jungle and walls of sheer rock. A place where pirates used to hide their loot. It's the most adventurous swim in my lifetime where you don't know where are you heading unless you see more light at the end of the tunnel and then the view is unbelievable!

Hard to believe that we can find a beach in the middle of a mountain but the Emerald Cave have a small beach. Just great so don't miss it!
You guys can refer to this video if you want to know how we get into the hidden beach.
