This is the same archipelago as the day trip, taken at the other end of the day. Departure is in the early afternoon, which shifts the whole programme into late light and adds two moments the morning format does not have: sunset from the boat, and a swim among bioluminescent plankton once night falls.
The route takes in Hong Island and its limestone cliffs, the viewpoint 109 metres up with its walkways in the treetops, Hong's lagoon edged by reefs and mangroves, then Pakbia Island and Lao Lading Island.
Two boats are offered, speed boat or long tail boat. The rate follows your choice.
Good to know: the child rate, ages 4 to 11, is 42 euros by speed boat and 36 euros by long tail boat.
