All Expeditions begin with a Familiarization Day

This day is all about getting to know each other (expedition participants and your S.E.A. Kayaking local guide) and all the equipment we will be using.

After checking into your resort for the evening (as provided by S.E.A. Kayaking), our taxi will pick you up at your reception at 15.00 and bring you to our office.

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

While we are together, we will get fitted out with all the equipment we will be using throughout the expedition.

Kayak, Life Jacket, Spray deck, Water shoes, paddle.

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

We will not be on the water. There is no food provided on familiarization day.

Expedition Day

Our taxi will pick you all up at your resort at 9.20   am and bring you to the office.  Please come ready with your kayaking kit already packed.

The luggage you are not taking with you on the expedition will be placed in our office, for safe keeping whilst you are away.

You will need your passport for your expedition, as the Thai government now requires all resorts to monitor their customers.

Day 1 Bang Bao Beach – Koh Prao Nok – Koh Prao Nai – Salak Plet 15 KM

Bang Bao is a beach on the south coast of Koh Chang. It is the starting point for our multi-day expeditions. From the beach, we have rewarded a panoramic view of the islands that await us. Once we have packed our kayaks and orientated ourselves we set out to the east for Wai Chaek Beach where is located on the south coast of Koh Chang and the only undeveloped beach on the island. At Wai Chaek, we have the further opportunity to venture inland in our kayaks on ‘sweet water’. After the pre-packed lunch, we will continue to heading East along the South coast to Koh Phrao Nok and Koh Prao Nai. It is a good time to explore Salak Phet Bay where you experience the fisherman’s village, mangroves, and beautiful nature of this area. A/C, Wifi, Hot Water.

The crossing to Koh Wai is a 3 km crossing and is done in only a short time. Our destination on Koh Wai is the aptly named Paradise Beach which serves up the best coffee and fantastic snorkeling. From the beach, we have rewarded a panoramic view of the islands that await us which is one of the best snorkeling spots in the whole park. 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.
