Koh Samui Sea Kayaking & Snorkelling at Angthong Marine Park
Samui Kayaking is best enjoyed as part of a trip to Ang Thong National Marine Park, famous for inspiring Alex Garland’s book, The Beach. The tour begins in the morning from Nathon Pier in the north west of Koh Samui. A light breakfast is served on board a three level fully equipped 23 meter boat before you set sail. The trip to the nearby Angthong National Marine Park takes under two hours and provides views of the wonderful scenery of the north coast of Samui and Koh Phangan, the location for the monthly Full Moon Parties.
When you arrive at the calm waters of the Marine Park, your guide gives a briefing on the day’s program and introduces a fleet of the world's number one sit-on-top kayak, the Malibu Two.
And then off you go to discover magical caves and bizarre rock formations amongst the dozens of dreamy deserted beaches. Keep your eyes and ears alert you may meet the families of whales, dolphins and monkeys that make this spectacular park their home. You will enjoy a nice Thai lunch and have plenty of time for exploring beneath the water or for just slowing down and taking in the many images that will stay with you forever.
The kayaks are manned by two people, maximum, or you can ride independently. You can race each other, explore the area together, really have a great day out that you can’t replicate anywhere else. It would be even better if you bring along a water proof camera (disposal ones are not too expensive) and take some snaps of your trip.
