Canoeing and Canoe Trips Phuket
Sea canoe trips are available as one-day tours or more extended tours involving overnight camping. The majority of the trips take place in neighbouring Phang Nga Bay and Krabi, where mangrove swamps, cliff-lined lagoons and sea caves can only be accessed by sea canoe.
Sea canoeing is one of the best ways to explore what is one of the world's most beautiful and dramatic landscapes. Phang Nga Bay is famous for its fascinating and beautiful limestone karst islands and caves. It's no accident that two James Bond films have been filmed here.
The experience of being paddled through dark but glittering caves and emergine into the cliff-lined lagoons, known as hongs, is an experience not to be missed during your time in Phuket.

Operators
All sea canoe companies provide lunch, and usually stop at an island on the way back, allowing passengers time for swimming and paddling. Choosing the best company – one that will try to avoid the canoe traffic jams and give its clients an educational experience – is difficult. Don’t always buy the first tour on offer. Tour desks usually push the tour that gives them the biggest commission, not the one that provides the best experience for the customer.
