| Along the thirty-kilometer east
coastline of Ko Lanta rich mangrove forests grow richly, creating
interesting effects in the landscape. Take a kayak or canoe and explore
tiny islands with limestone cliffs over onehundred meters high;
discover large and small caves to paddle about in. In the area known as
Talabeng, nature has provided an excellent route by water through the
rainforests. Various smaller mammals such as monkeys and squirrels can
be seen, as well as a diverse collection of birds, and certain species
of fish only found in this particular mangrove. |
