Annoyingly, a pesky little ear infection prevented me from taking the diving course that I had planned to take, though there is always a silver lining on the clouds, and in this case it was the fact that it is unlikely we would have made it to the place that proved to be arguably the most beautiful spot on the entire trip (save for perhaps the Perhentian Islands. We flagged down one of these truly unique Thai boat taxis to get there - each boat equipped with a propellor on a long pole directly attached to a large and rusty diesel engine.

Tanote Bay is the place to stay on Koh Tao, there is simply no question.
