More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off Ao Por Pier as the bay opens: the wooden boat slips between sculpted limestone towers, salt spray lacing the air and gulls wheeling above. Guides call out landmarks as the engine eases and the first canoes are lowered. In a small aluminum canoe you glide into a dark throat of rock—Bat Cave—where still water mirrors stalactites and the world narrows to paddle strokes and breath.

Wear reef-safe sunscreen
Thailand’s marine park protects coral and seagrass—use reef-safe sunscreen and reapply sparingly to avoid runoff into the water.
Bring a dry bag
Phones and spare clothes should be waterproofed for canoe sections and beach stops where spray and shallow water are common.
Mind the tides and caves
Some caves narrow at high tide; follow guide instructions and avoid entering if water is rising or rough.
Pack a light change of clothes
After swimming or paddling you'll appreciate dry layers for the return boat ride and travel back to your hotel.
