1 Day Sea Kayak Expedition
A gentle single-day paddle through the islands off the west coast of Koh Chang — your perfect first taste of sea kayaking in paradise.
1 Day Sea Kayak Expedition
Join us on our single-day expedition exploring the beautiful islands off the west coast of Koh Chang. It is the ideal introduction to sea kayaking — calm, clear water, first-class equipment and a highly skilled local guide by your side the whole way.
Tour itinerary
Every multi-day expedition begins with a relaxed familiarisation day. Distances are a guide — the sea always has the final say.
Magic Resort → Koh Man Noi → Koh Pli → Koh Yuak
Starting from Magic Resort we head south to Koh Man Noi for fruit and a swim, then continue due west past Koh Man Nok and Koh Pli to our lunch and snorkelling spot at Koh Yuak.
Koh Yuak → Koh Suwan → Magic Resort
When it’s time to move on we head east back toward Koh Suwan, just 1 km from Magic Resort. From here you can finish, or continue north to Chai Chet and the Klong Plu river (an extra 5 km).

Common questions
Do I need previous kayaking experience?
No — this trip is designed for beginners. If you can swim and are reasonably active, you’ll be fine. We coach you the whole way.
How big are the groups?
Small and personal — a maximum 1:6 guide-to-paddler ratio, up to 7 (min. 2) guests, so you get real coaching and a better experience.
What equipment is provided?
Everything technical — Tiderace kayaks, Werner & GearLab paddles, Palm buoyancy aids, spraydecks, dry bags, snorkelling and full safety gear. You just bring the personal items on our What to Bring list.
When can I do this trip?
Season: Nov–May. Tell us your dates and we’ll match you to the right departure — or arrange a private group booking.
Is it safe?
Safety comes first. Buoyancy aids are worn at all times, our guides are qualified and first-aid trained, every multi-day trip begins with a familiarisation day, and we carry full safety and repair kit.
How do I book?
Booking is a conversation, not a checkout. Message us on WhatsApp, LINE or email. A 25% deposit secures your place; the balance is due at least 6 weeks before you paddle.
