Trade the crowded shorelines for the rhythmic pulse of the island’s secret heart. This journey is a masterclass in transitions, taking you from the vibrant life of the mangrove canopy to the surreal glow of a sea that mimics the stars.

As the afternoon sun dips, you’ll navigate the ancient waterways of Thung Yee Peng by traditional longtail boat, observing macaques and kingfishers in their emerald sanctuary. At Laem Kho Kwang, the river meets the ocean, offering a front-row seat to a fiery sunset enjoyed over a quiet dinner on the sand.

The true magic, however, awakens in the dark. In a final, ethereal kayaking session, you’ll witness the bioluminescent plankton—a rare phenomenon where every stroke of your paddle ignites the water in shimmering blue sparks. It is a silent, breathtaking finale that feels less like a tour and more like paddling through a dream.

Additional Info

Public transportation options are available nearby

Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap

Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries

Not recommended for pregnant travelers

Not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health

Suitable for all physical fitness levels

Wear flip flops or water shoes in case there are shells or rocks on the sand and shorts rather than pants as the water level may be above the knees when hopping off/on the boat.

Ensuring your safety is our top priority. To that end, we strongly recommend wearing a life jacket throughout the entire boat ride to the islands and while snorkeling.

Shorts are ideal as they dry quickly and allow for greater freedom of movement, especially if the water level reaches above your knees when getting on or off the boat.

Longtail boats navigate close to the shoreline, allowing passengers a convenient and effortless transition to the beach.

If you prefer not to kayak, you have the option to take a round-trip tour through the mangrove forest by longtail boat. Please request this option prior to your tour.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

    Had an amazing time with our guide Momo, he made everyone feel comfortable and kept the vibe fun the whole time. Everything was just as described, with hotel pickup, longtail boat ride through the mangroves, then kayaking where we caught a beautiful sunset. Dinner was super tasty, and after dark we went back out and saw bioluminescent plankton glowing in the water, which was unreal. Thank you for this experience! :)
