2-Day Nature & Adventure Experience
Explore magical Phang Nga Bay on a two-day journey combining the Hong by Starlight experience with the tranquillity of Day in the Islands. Paddle through hidden caves, camp on a secluded beach, and customise your second day’s itinerary to explore the bay’s highlights with expert guides.
Day 1
Your Phang Nga Bay adventure begins with a hotel pickup and transfer to Ao Po pier, where you’ll board an escort boat and enjoy a light Thai lunch. Paddle through caves and lagoons (hongs) at your first island, guided by local experts who share insights into the area’s ecosystem. After exploring a second island and enjoying free time to swim or relax, craft a traditional Loi Kratong to float at sunset.
In the evening, head to the private Koh Nok island for beach camping. Unwind with a freshly prepared dinner and enjoy a night under the stars before retiring to your tent.
Day 2
Rise early for a sunrise paddle, followed by breakfast. Your customised itinerary for the day includes visits to quiet islands like Kudu and Roi, where you can paddle through serene waters, explore hidden coves, and soak in the natural beauty. Break for lunch at a scenic spot before wrapping up your adventure with a final paddle or swim.
Return to Ao Po pier in the late afternoon, leaving Phang Nga Bay with memories of its emerald waters and dramatic cliffs. This expedition maximises your time with fast longtail boat transfers and private beach camping.
