Have you ever been to Elephant Island? Isn't it fun?

Elephant island is very good. You can consider traveling there.

Through the jungle

70% of Elephant Island is a rainforest, and there are no stone steps. It is a paradise for hiking. After reading the introduction in paradise, there are two hiking companies in Xiangdao, which have different routes every day of the week. Early in the morning, the tour guides who organized the walking took two buses and received nearly 20 people of all kinds from the hotels along the way to the foot of the mountain. Everyone was given 2 bottles of water, 2 bottles of soft drinks, 1 lunch and 1 banana. Elephant Island provides three hiking routes, which are located in the north (north of Baishatan), the middle (near Klong Pro) and the south (near Bang bao annex) of the island. The three routes are different in scenery, walking distance and difficulty. I can't remember which line it is. The shortest and easiest one is suitable for the elderly and children, and the journey takes about 3-4 hours. The most difficult time is at least 6 hours, and the mountain road is at least 9 kilometers. In fact, it's only afterwards. The specific time and distance of hiking are temporarily adjusted by the tour guide according to the physical strength and technical level of the members. If the buddies in this group are as fast as flying and the hiking is magical and rich, then the tour guide will choose some abnormal routes to make you consume excess energy. Anyway, there is no ready-made road in the mountains, and it depends entirely on the on-site command of the tour guide.

Finally, talk about the understanding of the difficulty of hiking. If you often take part in sports at home, you can endure playing 1-2 hours, and have the experience of climbing thousands of meters of mountains and rivers in China independently, so you can fully adapt to the hardships and fun brought by this kind of hiking. In addition, it is also very important to wear a pair of non-slip sports shoes and even hiking shoes. Because there are streams and many showers in the mountains, it is inevitable to travel on relatively slippery mountain roads. Wearing high heels or sandals is really a painful thing.

2) One-day snorkeling tour

I went to an intermediary to report snorkeling fishing and played until sunset. After breakfast, a car picked me up at Bay Bangbao. The reason why I like Thailand best is the gorgeous colors. A pier is so beautifully decorated by countless ships!

The boat stopped near an island, so I went to play in the water. Snorkeling can really see fish shuttle!

Fishing in the afternoon ~ the fish in the sea are stupid and easy to fish! Blue water, you can swim to the opposite beach from here to enjoy the sunshine!

Passing an island, many monkeys gathered together.

The ship stopped at the port, and the sunset painted it with beautiful colors. A beautiful day has passed ~

Snorkeling is indeed a must-see project for Elephant Island, because the local water quality is good and marine life is rich. The price is basically 1000 baht. Adults and children are free, including picking up and dropping off from your hotel, providing all the equipment and having lunch at noon. It can be said that there is no need to prepare any more money after paying the money.

Snorkeling is simple, not deep diving. Deep diving needs to carry oxygen bottles several meters or even more than ten meters underwater, which requires technology. If you want to dive alone, you need an international certificate from PADI. Snorkeling is wearing big eyes, wearing a breathing tube, relaxing floating on the sea, carefully enjoying the underwater active fish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers and colorful corals. You don't even need to be a good swimmer, because you can put on a life jacket and float on the water. Myopic friends had better bring their own myopic goggles from China, and then remove a breathing tube for combined use. Enjoy the fun of snorkeling, which is highly praised by everyone during our trip. It is the difference between Sanya and Phuket in China that brings you novelty and excitement.

Underwater photography is actually very simple. You can buy a sealed cover for your camera. There are many choices on Taobao. Please pay attention to the cover that matches your model. Or you can buy a disposable underwater camera, like 10, with 20 photos, which is completely affordable. Of course, rich people can buy special underwater cameras. I didn't ask anyone to take my picture, so I don't know the price. But I believe that if you let the crew who took you into the water take pictures, they won't charge.

If you choose to take a big wooden boat to go snorkeling in Elephant Island, the crew on board are all good at water, and you will pay special attention to women and children with poor water. They will take several people to different waters to see different scenery, and even have their own impromptu performances.
