Ko Lawa Chumphon is a marine tourist destination that focuses on snorkeling activities. As a large rocky island with steep cliffs, there is no convenient sandy beach for resting on the island. However, its beauty lies in the underwater world, which is known for its rich and thriving marine ecosystem.

Around the island, there are various types of shallow water corals, especially brain coral and boulder coral, as well as colorful sea anemones that contrast beautifully with the clear seawater.
Visitors can also see tridacna clams and schools of various fish species.

Due to its natural beauty, Ko Lawa is often included in One Day Trip snorkeling tours, together with nearby islands in Mu Ko Chumphon National Park.
