Details
Product Info: －What You Can Expect－The Phang Nga National Marine Park is dotted with a total 42 tiny islands and islets. On this tour you will cruise to some of the most beautiful and spectacular of them. With your skilled kayak guide you will discover dramatic and beautiful landscapes as you're paddled through narrow, winding caves into hidden lagoons surrounded by 1000 foot rock formations.A comfortable air-conditioned minivan will drive you from your Phuket hotel to Ao Por Pier where you will board a cruise ship at approximately 11:00am to take you to Phang Nga Bay. There the friendly staff will brief you on your sea kayaking adventure.On the cruise you will pass by breathtakingly beautiful limestone rock formations until you reach Hong Island.Hop aboard inflatable kayak built for three people. The guide, will sit at the rear and do all the paddling for you.Explore the many caves and lagoons of this heritage park, taking in spectacular views of Hong Island and Panak Island and marvelling at the beauty of the surrounding nature. 'Hong' is the Thai word for 'room'. These 'hongs' are inland open-air tidal lagoons surrounded by sheer cliffs up to 1000 feet high. The only way in or out is through caves at certain times of the day when the tides are suitable. These lagoons were only recently discovered and must be preserved for future generations to enjoy, therefore all visitors must remain environmentally conscious by respecting the nature.Entering into the sea cave is more like a dream than reality. It is normal to feel very small as you travel through, or beside, these huge rocks. Some tunnels (due the sea tides) are so narrow and low that you must lay down flat to avoid hitting the roof top.In the caves and tunnels you will see magnificent stalactite, stalagmites and rocks in different colours as you are paddled through in an atmosphere of silent mysticism.Return back to the cruise ship to enjoy a buffet lunch on board before cruising past Khao Phing Kan, the popular 'James Bond Island'. Stop for a refreshing break on a secluded shore and take time to relax on the pristine white-sand beaches.After your paddling adventure, head back to Ao Por Pier where your return transfer to the hotel awaits.－Important Info－Tour start time: 11:30 AMPick-up time: 30-90 minutes prior to the booked tour start time (depending on hotel location).
