Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
Get to know the people and customs of the Bang Rong Community where villagers maintain their simple traditional way of life. Join in a BBQ on the beach, paint your own souvenir, taste fresh pineapple and coconut water and take a dip in the Phang Nag Bay.
Tucked among the mangroves on Phuket's east coast, the Bang Rong Community has created a conservation program that has helped maintain their simple traditional way of life. Upon arrival, you'll join in a number of activities like painting a tote bag then you'll travel to a pineapple plantation and learn how this delicious fruit is grown and harvested. From here, you'll stop at the rubber plantation for a look at how to harvest rubber. During a visit to the coconut grove you'll see how coconuts are peeled and cut open. For lunch, you'll board a boat and transfer to Koh Pae, a remote and quiet island offering sun, sand, sea and BBQ food. Spend your time relaxing until it's time to transfer back ashore. En route to the ship, there may be time to stop for some shopping at a reputable store.
Special Notes:
This is not PURELY a "beach/swimming tour" but comfortable clothes and walking shoes are recommended.Depending on the time of the day and month, sea tide plays an important factor on getting on/off your local motorized boat.
When the motorized boat docks by the beach on Pae island, guests need to climb down/up through a steel ladder hanging by the side of the boat.
A toilet on a speed boat is not a proper one and can only be utilized in case of emergency.
There is no shady area on Pae Island at all. It is an island with no facility. BBQ lunch of limited items and drinks will be administered on Pae island.
