Kayaking in Krabi

Published on by Laurenod.xLeave a comment

On Saturday in Krabi we headed to Ao Tha Lane for an afternoon of Kayaking.. Little did I know at the time that I am the absolute don at it. Yes, Kayaking Champion 2015 over here. I think this maybe my new favourite water sport (only because I’m good at it).

   
Jack and I lead from the front every step of the way and mastered some key skills early on. 

  Teamwork makes the dream work! 

  

We headed around the canyon, played some games involving manoeuvring around and ducking under trees and dodges in and out of islands and rocks

   
   

  We even see some monkeys along the way!

   

  

Such characters, they jumped on our boat to join in on the fun. Just to warn you, keep your stuff hidden, they like to steal things,  and never touch a monkey, they can be aggressive. 

   

 Great day all in all, the exercise knackered me out though and I was in bed by midnight. 

What’s your favourite water sport?
