Reisroute
Hong Island is een van de mooiste eilanden in de Andaman Zee. Het is de thuisbasis van een groep eilanden met een reeks torenhoge kalkrotsen, witte zandstranden, kristalhelder water en verbazingwekkende koraalriffen. De tour vertrekt vanaf de Sea Kayak-pier in Ao Thalane, waar u een longtailboot naar Hong Island neemt. Begin je avontuur met het verkennen van de omgeving van Hong Island in open water per kajak, en ga vervolgens de verborgen smaragdgroene lagune in om te snorkelen en zwemmen. Neem een pauze en lunch op de boot voordat de middagactiviteiten beginnen. In de middag heeft u vrije tijd om te zwemmen in het kristalheldere water, te snorkelen in het koraalrif en nog wat te kajakken. Voordat u terugkeert naar de Sea Kayak-pier, geniet u van een boottocht naar enkele kleinere eilanden rond Hong Island. U kunt achterover leunen en ontspannen terwijl u geniet van het spectaculaire landschap. route: • 08:00 - 08:30: ophalen van het hotel in Krabi • 08:30 - 09:00: ontmoet de bootbemanning op Sea Kayak Pier in Ao Thalane • 09:00 - 09:30: koffie drinken en instructies krijgen over de reis • 09:30 - 10:00: cruise per boot naar Hong Island • 10:00 - 11:30: Paddle by kajak op Koh Hong • 11:30 - 12:00: Ga terug naar de boot • 12:00 - 13:00: geniet van een lunch op de boot • 13:00 - 15:00: strandtijd met zwemmen en snorkelen • 15:00 - 15:30: Sightseeing op Hong Island, als je geluk hebt kun je een monitorhagedis spotten • 15:30 - 16:00: ga terug naar Ao Thalane • 16:00 - 16:30: Transfer terug naar het hotel

Beautiful kayak trip through mangroves, easy done 7km, good snorkeling at Kong Island, lots of fun with guide
Dear Julia_G Thanks for joining our kayaking trip to Hong Island with Sea Kayak Krabi.
Excellent day. It was @ a 30 minute drive from our hotel to the pier, and another 30 minutes on a long boat to reach the island. We were a small group of 4 and our guide A checked we were comfortable with kayaking before we set off round the island. We stopped off in a lagoon and the scenery was spectacular. We were given the choice of returning the way we came or carrying on round the island. We decided to carry on round and had some amazing features pointed out to us on the way. Back at the beach, we went for a tasty lunch of local dishes, and then had around an hour to snorkel. We then went by long boat to another beach for more snorkelling before returning to the pier and return to our hotels. A great day out. (It was very sad to see the amount of plastic in the sea, but we all picked up what we could to be disposed off properly at the end of the kayak).
We were picked up from our hotel and driven in an air conditioned van about 30 minutes to the tour company. We were given a dry bag, from there we boarded a longtail boat to Hong Island. There we took a quick dip while our guide prepared the tandem kayaks. There were only 8 people in our group. Felt like a private tour. Our guide gave us a lot of local information and was very nice. We kayaked around the island, about 1hr-1 1/2 hr total. Afterwards our guide led us to a beach restaurant for a lunch of traditional thai dishes, all very good. Also provided water and soda. After lunch we had about 2 hours of free time on the beach. The guide set up beach mats and snorkeling gear for us. We then boarded the longtail boat to head to another island beach. The beach was crowded so we went to a different one which was much appreciated. There was a monkey hanging out in a tree which was fun to see but use caution as he was a bit aggressive. We spent 45 minutes here before we headed back. This was a fabulous day. Our guide was excellent! Very kind, attentive, professional and knowledgeable.
<p>This trip was one of the highlights of me and my wife's belated honeymoon in Krabi. When booking, I wasn't sure specifically how big the small group would be, but on the day we went it was just us and one other couple and so almost like a private tour. I don't know what the average group size is.</p> <p>We were taken from our resort in Aonang to Thalane bay in an air-conditioned van, about a 30 minute drive. There, we were split into groups doing different tours. We met our guide for the day, June, who was a lot of fun and shared interesting information and stories about the local area over the course of the day. </p> <p>We boarded the longtail boat and set off, stopping first at Lading island aka Paradise beach, which was a beautiful spot. If you do this tour I recommend you follow the short trail from the larger beach, which leads to the other side of the island where you'll find a secluded little spot which is great for pictures. </p> <p>We then moved on to Hong island, where the kayaks were waiting. The kayaking was very enjoyable as we navigated the entire circumference of the island, seeing every nook and cranny up close. It was fun manoeuvring the kayak through the small arches formed by the rocks, and paddling into the lagoon was quite spectacular. </p> <p>I wasn't keeping track of time, but I think we were in the kayaks for 1.5 2 hours, before ending up back at the beach for several hours of free time.</p> <p>The provided lunch was good green curry / sweet and sour chicken / fried vegetables / fried chicken leg rice, and we were definitely ready for it after the kayaking. </p> <p>Overall, I'd definitely recommend this activity as it is very well planned out. The timing meant we were able to avoid a lot of the crowds at several locations, including the Hong island lagoon, we had the place totally to ourselves. June was also a great guide, and obviously enjoys what he does.</p> <p>One small tip: remember to bring a hat, and don't forget to apply plenty of suncream, in particular to your legs and feet which are exposed due to the seating position in the kayaks. I stupidly neglected to do so and got very sunburned!</p>
<p>The day was well organised, we had a good guide who gave us information on each island stop. Hong Island was where we spent the most time kayaking 4km around the island. This was followed by a very good lunch and free time for a swim and an optional nature walk. <br/> We then visited 2 other islands in the group where we had more time to explore or enjoy free time for swimming.</p>
