At this point, we discuss the route and complete paperwork, such as medical/contact forms, and answer any questions our customers have.

We also have time during the day, to do any adjustments needed. The dry bags will be provided during the day for your packing.

Day 1

Salak Phet Bay–Koh Prao Nok – Wai Chaek Beach – Bang bao 15 KM/9.3 Miles

The first day of expedition, we start from the office to explore the mangrove and Salakphet bay where we are afforded a panoramic view of the islands that await us. Once we have packed our kayaks, gear and briefed, we set out for Salak Phet Bay, Koh Prao Nok then continued to the Koh Chang southwest coast stopping at Wai Chaek Beach, and finish the trip at Bang Bao. A/C/Hot Water

Day 2

Bang Bao Beach – Koh Klum – Koh Rang 24KM/14.9 Miles

Once we have packed our kayaks and orientated ourselves, we set out for the western tip of Koh Klum, an open water crossing of 7km. Before you know it, we have reached the first of numerous islands. After a little rock hopping and exploration, we arrive at our next spot, where we will enjoy lunch in Koh Klum.

Departing Koh Klum, we look South over the open sea towards Koh Rang Yai. Koh Rang Yai is a protected National Park island inhabited only by the Thai navy. Now 10Km of open sea lies ahead of us before we pass/land on the idyllic Koh Ma-Pring. From here we kayak down the East coast of Koh Rang to our stunning campsite for the night. When we arrive at camp, the tents will be up and ready to occupy and the coffee (real coffee) will be in the pot.

To facilitate a good night sleep, S.E.A. Kayaking will provide wonderful food, a pillow case, sleeping bag liner, an inflatable pillow, Sleeping Mat, and a small fan!

Day 3: Koh Rang Yai and Circumnavigation – Koh Mak 18km/11 Mile

A morning of underwater exploration awaits us as just around the corner from our departure are two, first-class snorkel spots. A deep water entry allows us VIP access to the beautiful coral reefs and to the wide variety of exotic fish. After our adventure, we re-enter our kayaks and head out on our circumnavigation of Koh Rang.

Circumnavigating Koh Rang Yai is a delight, with interesting rock formations and wild flora, it is a sea kayaker’s heaven. After a rest on the Northern beach of Koh Rang, we head East to Koh Kra, where crystal clear water and a stunning beach await us, and give the opportunity to enjoy some snorkeling as well as lunch (pre-packed for you).

After lunch we head east to Koh Mak, with a breathtaking Northerly view of the islands visited so far and the ones still to come, this crossing is one to remember. As we approach the Southwestern tip of Koh Mak, we spill out onto the South coast. With our bodies fighting fit again, we set out for the final push along the length of the South coast to our resort for the night. A/C, restaurant, and hot water are included.

Day 4 – Rest Day

Koh Mak is the most beautiful of all the islands(my opinion) and exploring it is very easy.  If you choose to get out and about you have various options for transport including Taxi, motorbike (moped), bicycle and of course on foot.

Day 5: Koh Mak – Koh Rayang Nai – Koh Rayang Nok- Koh Kham – Koh Bai Dang– Koh Wai 21 KM/13 Miles

Fully rested we are ready to continue our journey. The first section, we head west along the South coast and then up the magnificent West coast; where we are blessed with wonderful play opportunities, caves, and lava tubes.

Instead of heading straight to the next island, we continue to contour along the Koh Kham for lunch. From this point, we have open water crossing to Koh Bai Dang (7 km) and Koh Wai (3 km) where our resort for the night awaits.

Remark: The accommodation in Koh Wai is very limited. There is the possibility to get shared toilet options or a ruined Bangalow. The electricity is also limited not the whole night. If we get this option, we will compensate by upgrading the quality of accommodation on other days.

Day 6: Koh Wai – Koh Lao Ya Nok – Koh Ngam – Koh Wai Circumnavigation 23 KM/14 Mile 

This is a wonderful day to explore surrounding area. We will stay on Koh Wai another night then head to Koh Lao Ya nok, then Koh Ngam where unique shape of two small mountains joined together by a sandbar lined with coconut trees.

After enjoying the packed lunch, we will head back to Koh Lao Ya Nok for Koh Wai and making the circumnavigation.
