Activities: John Gray's Sea Canoe

John Gray's Sea Canoe is the real deal. The company, its founder and all employees really do "walk the talk." The company is one of the most well-known on the island and popular for their devotion to the environment and marine conservation.

John Gray's Sea Canoe offers kayaking tours that are a cut above the rest. The original kayaking tour operator in Phuket, John Gray's Sea Canoe offers a unique tour experience called 'Hong by Starlight' which is an amazing way to discover Phang Nga Bay's hongs (caves) in a kayak paddled by a professional guide.

The 'Hong by Starlight' tour departs in the early afternoon from Ao Por Pier on the eastern side of Phuket. A light lunch is served before reaching the first hong. Before embarking on the awesome adventure, one of the well-trained guides presents all of the guests with a series of illustrations that show the rules of the trip - be quiet and have your cameras ready while inside the hongs, have fun and respect nature.

The tour affords the chance to witness sea eagles in their natural habitat as well as the awesome hongs and karsts of Phang Nga Bay. The guides are keen to show off their knowledge, answer questions and narrate as the afternoon fades into the evening.

John Gray's Sea Canoe really is an amazing tour and a wonderful experience. If you are visiting Phuket, or an expat who has never been, we strongly recommend you go. Almost every Phuket hotel knows about John Gray's Sea Canoe and is able to book the tour.
