Got the ferry to Koh Tao straight from Koh Phangan with Dan and Deb. Spent the whole 3 hour trip out on the front of the boat getting burnt to f*ck by the sun. Once in Koh Tao it took us quite a while to find a decent place to stay but we eventually settled on a 3 bedroom bungalow..it's definately the nicest place we've stayed so far, marble floors, decent bathroom, 2 fans (still no air con like, its about an extra 1000BHT just to get that on the island).
