Langkawi Sea & Mangrove Kayaking

This off-the-beaten-path tour led by our friend and naturalist, Juergen, will bring you or rather, have you paddle into  small and narrow mangrove forest canals, leading to secret caves. Some of which can be traversed with the kayaks, while others require some jungle trekking in order to be reached. Join this amazing scenic 'low impact on nature' adventure! It's not a very well known tour so you can enjoy this rare adventure since you stumbled on to this!

What do I get to do?

Participate in low impact tourism. Kayak in pristine waters, get a work out, admire Langkawi's unique ecology and learn from a knowledgable nature guide first hand.
