What to expect
Hong Island is one of the most beautiful islands in the Andaman Sea. It is home to a group of islands with an array of towering limestone cliffs, white sandy beaches, crystal clear water and amazing coral reefs.
The tour departs from the Sea Kayak pier in Ao Thalane where you will take a longtail boat out to Hong Island. Start your adventure exploring the surroundings of Hong Island in open water by kayak, then venture into the hidden emerald lagoon for a snorkel and a swim.
Take a break and have lunch on the boat before the afternoon activities begin.
In the afternoon you will have free time to swim in the crystal clear waters, snorkel in the coral reef and do some more kayaking.
Before returning to the Sea Kayak pier enjoy a boat trip to some smaller islands around Hong Island. You can sit back and relax whilst taking in the spectacular scenery.
