Koh Rok Nok and Koh Rok Nai were the location for filming of French version of the popular Survivor series. They offer a semisheltered anchorage during the northeast monsoon. Anchor in 12-15 metres in the eastern approach to the channel on the east side of Koh Rok Nok or in 6-8 metres on the north end, depending on the ground swell; anchorage (B) is the most secure. The channel is deep closest to Koh Rok Nok and can be navigated with care. The water is clear with a sandy bottom and there is great snorkelling and diving around the islands.
The National Park headquarters and camp ground is on the south side of Koh Rok Nai. Barbeques are prohibited on the beach. A fee of 400 Baht per person per day is levied.
Hin Daeng, 12 miles west-southwest, is a pinnacle rising out of 70 metres depth and was a spectacular dive site until recent illegal dynamite fishing incidents.
