Hong Islands Longtail Boat Tour with Kayak Paddling

Start the day trip with a hotel pickup service in Krabi in the morning. Undergo a short health check-up by the crew of Krabi Sunset Tours at Nopparat Thara Pier in Ao Nang. Hop aboard the traditional longtail boat with your fellow explorers and head over to the Hong Island group.

Make a short stopover at Koh Daeng (Red Island) for open sea snorkeling with very clear water and a coral reef underneath.

Once arrived at the main island, named Koh Hong, start paddling on a sit-on-top kayak with 2 seats around Hong Island and explore the hidden mangrove forest in Hong Lagoon. Here you can swim in the cool turquoise waters and spot a wide array of colorful fish and other marine animals. Enjoy a yummy, fresh made Thai style lunch directly at the beach.

Then spend a leisurely day exploring the secrets of the island, from mangrove trees to wild birds, giant lizards, incredible rock formations, and beaches. Relax at the turquoise beach and soak up the scenery - feeling the heat?

The highlight is the recently opened scenic viewpoint with a 360° panorama of the most amazing limestone islands the Andaman Sea has to offer.
