ITINERARY
You would like to explore the local area a bit more and your interests are more cultural rather than in the nature? We offer you a full day of exploration north of Khao Lak. With different events, festivals, markets, etc during the season and with new sights coming up it's hard to tell when we go where, but we will include the following activities:
- Nam Kem: After visiting the International Tsunami Memorial, we will take Sea Canoes out into the Mangrove forest for an hour or so and try to find out why this kind of forest is so important for the ecosystem.
- Takuapa Town and Market: Our District Capital -Takuapa- has an interesting Old Town and Temples which are strongly influenced by Chinese immigrants. There is an everyday market with typical products of the region and of course there are more than enough possibilities to sample the local delicacies.
- Also in Takuapa we will have lunch and some coffee in a typical Thai Coffee shop at the river. Maybe it's even possible to have a look at the elementary School to see if the kids are doing their English lessons well.
What to bring:
Sun Protection, Mosquito Protection, Bathing suit, Towel, Camera, good and comfortable shoes, Temple appropriate clothing
