As I started researching things that I wanted to do in Southern Thailand, one thing sprang to the top of the list: Kayaking in “Hongs”. Hong is Thai for “room”, as in a room of a house. Hongs are essentially limestone sea caves where the roof has fallen in. Eventually, the sea wears away the tunnel entrance, and the hong turns into a lagoon.
I figure we can squeeze in a 3 day trip, so fired off emails to three of the bigger companies. So far, only Dave Williams of Paddle Asia has gotten back to me. And as I go through his email and links, it sounds better and better. Take a peak at a typical itinerary:

I am still waiting for official confirmation from the boss…
