Choose between a magical sunrise or a romantic sunset departure. In the early morning option, listen to the awakening sounds of birds and wildlife as golden light reflects on calm waters. The air is cool, misty and perfect for mindful moments. Our local guide paddles gently while you enjoy a simple local breakfast and coffee served in the village, surrounded by real green nature. It is ideal for photography as the soft light creates stunning reflections.

In the evening option, watch the sky transform into warm orange and pink hues as the sun gently dips below the horizon over Lanta Bay. As you return through the darkening mangrove canals, witness the magic of bioluminescent plankton glowing in the water when disturbed by the paddle. Enhance your sunset experience with a simple local dinner, enjoying the soothing ambience of dusk. Step aboard a traditional wooden gondola-style boat and drift through winding mangrove canals towards Lanta Bay.
