Trang Province - tropical island hopping, secluded beaches and nice bungalows

Season: May through October. This trip is for active adventurers who are capable of extended periods of activity. You MUST BE AN EXPERIENCED PADDLER! And, you must be fit!!

Journeys from the comfort of one island to the adventure of the next. This multi-day destination is south of Krabi province. It’s a developed tourist destination and mass tourism is causing problems during the winter months.

Due to the beauty of the islands, especially the cliffs and headlands, and their near proximity to one another, these crossings are appropriate for active novices. The longest crossing is ten nautical miles. You will be exposed to the open ocean and you must be comfortable in big swells.

You will carry everything you need in your kayaks without having an escort boat. This is a real kayaking trip that is unlike the usual extremely easy trips that everyone else offers.

These multi-day trips are an ever-shifting panorama of "sundowner" beaches and comfortable bungalows. It is an especially lovely area, though the mass market tour groups make it unattractive during the winter month. During the tourism low season, it has retained its charm.

There is one hong (hidden lagoon) that we visit.  It is the most popular tourist attraction in Trang.  Every day during the high tourist season hundreds of day-trippers visit this cave and hong.  We don't go when they go.  Instead, we go after the last boat has left.  We only go in if we can have it all to ourselves!

We stay in bungalows on different islands. Each bungalow is different from the others.  When we're not paddling, we have a wonderful views of the limestone islands of the area. We enjoy the laid back quality of island life and the friendliness of the locals. The restaurants at the bungalows are superb!

We offer four and six day trips to Trang for two to eight guests. Larger groups tours are available on request.
