Fisherman Koh Tao is in Chalok Baan Kao, the quieter village on Koh Tao’s south bay. Chalok Baan Kao Beach is 50 m away, while Ao Chalok Ban Kao is 350 m from the resort. Big Bite Burger & Bar, Cappuccino and Big Bubble Bar are each 200 m away, and nearby restaurants include Koppee Espresso Bar & Restaurant, also 200 m away. The immediate setting combines the sandy shore with a village strip of places to eat and small shops; recent visitors describe this part of the island as quieter than the main Sairee strip.

Koh Tao has no airport; ferry passengers arrive at Mae Haad Pier on the island’s west coast. Lomprayah Koh Tao Pier is 1.9 km from Fisherman Koh Tao. The resort provides a free transfer from the pier, and you are asked to share your arrival time in advance. Free public parking is available at a nearby location, with no reservation required. Pick-up truck taxis serve the island as well; a trip from the pier to Chalok Baan Kao is about 440 THB per truck. Ferries can be cancelled when seas are rough, particularly from November to January.

For a coastal walk or swim, Freedom Beach is 600 m away, while Shark Bay Beach is 650 m away. Sun Suwan Viewpoint, also 650 m from the resort, and John-Suwan Mountain Viewpoint (view on ao Chalok and ao thian beach), 900 m away, look over the southern bays. Snorkelling and diving are among the island’s main activities, and the resort also lists fishing. The south and west coasts are usually the calmer side from November through March; rough seas can disrupt ferry crossings.
