Visitors to Phuket simply have to explore the sea kayaking tours in the islands around the mainland. It is an amazing experience, one that you will only witness in this part of the world. Phang Nga Bay and Krabi are some of the major sites for sea kayaking. It doesn’t matter too much which location you choose, but keep in mind that you can only cover one of these areas during the day. The tour rides operate from the Phuket beach and will take you across to the spectacular caves hidden beneath the mountains. If you opt for the day trip most of the tour packages will include a visit to the nearby James Bond Island, the Muslim Island in Phang Nga and finally a ride to sea caves on an isolated island.
The only way to actually view these sea caves is by kayaking beneath them. Of course you will need a trusted guide to navigate across the waters. The caves are dark and hidden amongst the rocky edges of the island. Most of them open out into a mangrove area where you can observe monkeys, birds and fish. Even in the rainy season it is safe to go kayaking in the sea caves as it is a whole new experience you would not want to miss out on.
Such kayaking tours have a set itinerary for all of the customers on board. When you stop at the sea caves the crew will put out some of the kayaks and take two to three people on each ride. When you reach the end of the dark cave you will be amazed by the beautiful mangroves that are at the heart of the island. December to March are the best times for sea kayaking because the weather is unlikely to change during this time and you can avoid some of the harsh monsoons. There are several options of Phuket luxury accommodation available on the island and they are perfect for either a short or long stay. Point Yamu by COMO Phuket is a great place to reside in during your vacation in Thailand as it offers some of the best services and package deals for tourists.
