Pimalai Resort & Spa Launches New Experiences In Thailand ’ s Ko Lanta National Park
- PIMALAI RESORT & SPA -
As this pristine ecosystem reopens after restoration , Pimalai welcomes travellers with a series of smallscale excursions to Koh Haa and Koh Rok .
Mu Ko Lanta National Park is a breath-taking natural paradise – 134 square kilometres of turquoise waters , unspoiled islands , hidden coves and captivating coastlines in southern Thailand ’ s Krabi province , blessed with an abundance of flora and fauna , including lush jungles and vibrant marine life .
Every year , this tropical wonderland is closed for six months to allow its delicate ecology to be refreshed and replenished . Pimalai Resort & Spa , the five-star sanctuary on Koh Lanta , fully supports the closure and works with local authorities to protect and preserve the area . Now , Mu Ko Lanta National Park has reopened to visitors following its annual restoration – and Pimalai ’ s responsible , experience-seeking clientele will be among the first to witness it . To celebrate this important occasion , the property has relaunched immersive , smallscale excursions to two of the region ’ s most idyllic islands : Koh Haa and Koh Rok .
The “ Koh Haa Snorkelling & Sunset ” adventure transports travellers to Koh Haa (“ Five Islands ”) – a captivating collection of limestone islets that enclose a dazzling aquamarine lagoon , a technicolour coral reef and a pure white beach . This provides the perfect spot for an afternoon of swimming and snorkelling . The leisurely boat ride back to Pimalai will be enhanced with onboard canapés and cool drinks , including wine and beer , as the sun sets over the Andaman Sea .
Alternatively , the “ Fabulous Koh Rok ” tour is a scenic one-hour boat trip to Koh Rok , a pair of paradise islands lined with powder-soft sandy beaches and lapped by warm , crystal clear waters . Following an hour of swimming and snorkelling , guests will be treated to a delicious onboard lunch before embarking on a sightseeing cruise around Koh Rok , with even more opportunities to plunge into the sparkling sea and uncover the enthralling underwater world .
