We are proud to announce the dates for our 4th annual Spotlight Koh Tao event! 

Following the huge success of Spotlight Koh Tao 2022 to 2024 we are delighted to announce the fourth year of our island-wide conservation event.

Running from the 27th to the 29th of June, 2025, Spotlight Koh Tao comprises workshops and exhibitions that highlight the island’s dedication to conservation and land and sea revitalization. We look forward to welcoming back visitors and esteemed guests from Thailand and around the world to join our environmentally-themed celebration.

Organized by Koh Tao Tourism Association, Spotlight Koh Tao is a three-day festival that showcases the island’s commitment to conservation and aims to promote sustainable tourism. Through a series of twelve marine and land activities led by various local initiatives, its program offers visitors new ways to explore the island while inspiring them to participate in conservation endeavors. Aligned with the Bio-Circular-Green economic model (BCG) outlined in the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the activities featured in the program not only reflect the community’s dedication to preserving its natural resources and developing sustainably but also represent a new paradigm for tourism.

Since its debut in 2022, the festival has evolved into an annual event that garnered significant attention and positive feedback from participants, including tourists, the Tourism Authority of Thailand, global media outlets and international attendees. Moreover, the event has become highly anticipated among the community as it stimulates tourism and generates considerable income for businesses. This further encourages them to participate in the island’s conservation efforts by adopting green and responsible practices that prioritizes and optimizes natural resources. Thus, this collective effort has the potential to transform the island into a model for sustainable tourism and ensure a future for the generations to come.
