About the trip

Gastronomy
Get on a special raft and take in the fresh breeze while enjoying all the seafood you can eat. You’ll float along Khlong Bang Son to a ridge of sand located at the mouth of the bay. It’s around here where you can watch the magnificent sunset in the evening. At night, it’s back onto a boat for a tour to see the famous fireflies light up the water – as well as a spot of squid fishing. There are more activities, too, like snorkeling (where you’ll be able to see the coral reefs underwater), as well as tasting Kopi Luwak, and visiting a yellow Pathio rice farm.
