snorkelling
Khao Lak is the most convenient point from which to go snorkelling in the Surin and Similan Islands, which offer some of Thailand's best coral and fish diversity and numbers. It takes usually 1-2 hours by speedboat to get to the islands. Several companies offer 1/2/3 day tours.
diving
With the Similan Islands and Surin Islands, home to some of the best diving in Asia just offshore, this is one of the main attractions in the area. There are also several local dive sites to choose from and many competent local companies to guide you.
