Trang
is our true kayaking expedition destinations.
You will carry everything you need for your expedition
in your kayak and you will get to experience island
hopping at its best. You must be reasonably fit to participate
in this kayaking expedition. You need to be
experienced and you need to be able to paddle for up
to three hours at a time. The pace is up to
you, but you must be capable of exerting yourself. The
rewards are many.
Trang is seasonal.
During the tourist high season (winter months), there
are too many people and too much noise. We only visit
Trang during the low season (summer/autumn months).
 This
is truly a special place. Each island holds its own
charm. Each bungalow we stay in, also has its own special
quality. Our Trang kayaking adventure tour packages
take full advantage of some of the most beautiful tropical
islands in this southern Thailand province.
Wildlife above and below water
There
is an opportunity for snorkeling on the outer
islands. A very wide variety of marine life exists all
over southern Thailand. We've seen massive schools of
flying fish rocketing out of the water in front of us.
You never know what to expect in Trang. We've had a
huge manta ray glide between our kayaks in the middle
of a one hour island crossing! It was only about 3 to
4 feet under very clear water! We've
seen other rays jumping as well
as other fish. This area is not exactly remote, but
it's not a touristy destination by any stretch of the
imagination. Massive limestone cliffs, monkeys calling,
White-bellied sea eagles, and night paddles make this
trip one you'll remember for a long time. Even if though
you'll be here during the peak of the tourist 'high
season', we'll be on our own while on the water.
Flexible itineraries
PaddleAsia
offers flexible individually-tailored daily
agendas. If you want to take it nice and slow, we'll
do that. If you want to avoid the island crossings,
we'll take motorboats between the islands... it's all
up to you. The island crossings are even mildly fit.
The crossings make you feel like you've really accomplished
something - and you have. They are short crossings,
about an hour to an hour and a half each, but there's
something very special about using your body to get
from point A to point B. 
Each
of our trip leaders has canoed extensively
in Trang. We know every inch of the most stunning islands.
There are many fine secluded tropical islands that you
can explore at your leisure in comfortable touring canoes.
In these areas, where only the occasional fisherman
is seen (during the low season), you can truly relax
and enjoy the natural beauty of the park.
The
bungalows that PaddleAsia employs are on
a different islands. Each day provides you with a new
island and a new bungalow. Each restaurant offer certain
special dishes. This is as much an eating tour as a
paddling adventure! The laid back quality of island
life is a welcomed relief from the busy life that many
of our guests live.
We are
the primiere tour operator in southern Thailand using
real
kayaks / canoes.
 We
have a variety of canoes to
suit every body size. We also teach proper paddling
technique to assure you that you are getting the most
efficient use of your canoe for the least amount of
physical output.
