No it didn't. It received it's name from the shape of the island as seen
from the boats that used to bring coconut plantation workers there from
Chumporn on the mainland. It was continued as the name when the
government used the island as a prison for political prisoners during
the earlier part of the 1900's. The use as a prison was discontinued
during the 1930's, leaving the coconut plantations to continue.

No it isn't. But is is a very nice place to dive and have a relaxing
vacation.

There were more than a dozen dive shops on the island 15 years ago, as
well as the well established village of Ban Mae Haed. The "Koh Tao
Association" was formed 13 years ago by members of these dive shops. (I
still have the T-shirt!) At the time 'Big Blue' and 'Master Diver,' the
two largest (at the time) dive shops refused to join. The association
dissolved after only two years.

We can only pray that you are more accurate about your rooms and
cottages than you were about the rest of the post.

Why? It's a spammer and most of us make the effort to boycott spammers.
