Open Phu Quoc← Tất cả bàiKayaking
Kayaking on a calm river or sheltered bay gives you a slower, quieter way to observe the shoreline than travelling by motorboat. Cua Can is often mentioned for this kind of experience, but paddle only on routes that are appropriate for the conditions and, especially as a beginner, with suitable guidance.
How to schedule?
Before launching, confirm the starting point, total paddling time, life-jacket provision, guide and the policy for changing or postponing the trip if wind or rain becomes unsuitable. Beginners should choose a shorter sheltered route and stay with the group. Do not rent a kayak and head alone towards an estuary or open water if you do not understand the local current and route.
What may be different
Water can look flat and easy from the bank, yet paddling into a headwind or stronger current can be far more tiring than expected. A sudden shower can also change the plan while you are already on the water. If the guide decides to turn back or end the trip for safety, respect that decision.
Before the trip
- Confirm water conditions and the route that is actually permitted for the trip.
- Wear a life jacket, use footwear with good grip and keep your phone in a waterproof pouch.
- Do not paddle away alone or enter an exposed estuary without the guide's approval.
- Take all personal rubbish back to shore.
