Description

Kayak through a maze of mangrove trees in a remote area of Krabi to the hidden lagoon of Ao Thueak. Visit Bat Cave and the local community of Nai Nang, famous for its beekeeping collective.
Get picked up from your hotel in Krabi by a local Thai style truck, and enjoy a scenic drive through rural villages to the rugged coastline of Ao Luk Noi in the north of Krabi. Meet your crew at Wang Toh Tao Pier near Nai Nang village, where you will undergo a short health check-up.

Start kayaking into the bay of Khao Garos together with your knowledgeable local guide. Enter a maze of mangroves surrounded by natural waterways that are connected to the Andaman Sea. Admire the steep, bizarrely shaped rock formations that protrude from the mangrove forests. 

Enter small passages and follow the course of the river until you reach the secret lagoon of Ao Thueak, where you can take a refreshing dip in the water. You will also visit ‘Bat Cave’, a sea cave that was formed by tectonic processes and erosion. 

Return back to the pier and enjoy a typical Thai style lunch in Baan Rai Nai Suan. Then it is time to explore the local community of Nai Nang village, home to over 45 families who depend primarily on traditional small-scale fishing and farming for their livelihoods. Visit the beekeeping collective and learn about mangrove forest conservation. The village now has more than 300 beehives and produces over 400 kilos of raw, unpasteurized honey every year.

You will also visit a typical goat farm. The mainly Muslim villagers raise about three to five goats per family as a source of additional income. In the surroundings, you will notice many rubber tree plantations where the locals harvest latex by slicing a groove into the bark of the tree with a hooked knife. You will get to try this form of rubber tapping yourself.
