“It has been a fantastic day of close encounters with wild animals  and exploration of dark chambers and silent lagoons where we kayakers were alone in a magical and pristine environment. We met placid macaques, not used to be fed by harassing tourists and therefore quietly minding their own business, weird looking crabs, beautiful eagles; we had fun stretching flat on the canoes, holding our breath every time we approached a cramped entry that seemed impossible to conquer, and where, instead, our experienced paddlers manage to push us  in. And, after an exciting day, some simple but delicious local food that we savoured on board the comfy and large boat, lots of sun and wind on our faces, we had a last surprise when we went at sea with the kayak for the last time, in the dark, to observe the bio-luminescent plankton that dots these waters.”
