3 Day Sea Kayak Expedition
Three days of secret beaches, sea cliffs and island crossings around Koh Chang — every multi-day expedition begins with a relaxed familiarisation day.
3 Day Sea Kayak Expedition
A wonderful first multi-day adventure. We explore the dramatic west coast, the undeveloped south and the mangroves and fishing villages of Salak Phet Bay — sleeping in comfortable resorts and guesthouses along the way. All expeditions begin with a familiarisation day to fit your kit and get to know your guide.
Tour itinerary
Every multi-day expedition begins with a relaxed familiarisation day. Distances are a guide — the sea always has the final say.
Familiarisation Day
Meet your guide and group at our office, complete medical and contact forms, and get fitted out with your kayak, life jacket, spraydeck and paddle. No time on the water today.
Koh Chang West Coast → Bang Bao
From Magic Resort we head down the south-west coast — some of the best rock formations in the park — gliding between rocks and carving turns before ending the day at Bang Bao.
Bang Bao → Wai Chaek → Koh Prao Nai → Salak Phet
East to undeveloped Wai Chaek Beach, then along the south coast to Koh Prao Nok & Nai and into Salak Phet Bay to experience the fishing village and mangroves.
Salak Phet → Koh Lao Ya Nai → Koh Klum → Bang Bao
Our first open-sea crossings to Koh Lao Ya Nai and Koh Klum, then a final 6 km crossing back to Koh Chang to celebrate a superb three-day journey.

Common questions
Do I need previous kayaking experience?
Some paddling fitness helps, but no formal experience is required. You take responsibility for choosing a trip that suits your ability — if you’re unsure, just ask and we’ll advise honestly.
How big are the groups?
Small and personal — a maximum 1:6 guide-to-paddler ratio, up to 7 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.
