In reply to andy healey:
Can't remember the name of the bungalows which we booked through Paddle Asia. We paddled around in 4 or 5 days, some of the nearby islands were great, but sadly Thai Beaches suffer a lot from washed up litter.
We climbed, kayaked, painted a mosque, mtn biked through the paddy fields and rubber plantations, had some thai boxing training with an ex world champ, played 5 a side at the local school all in all a great trip. Sadly had some hassles with the American guy who runs Paddle Asia, but they were great at getting things sorted so worth checking out their web pages for ideas of what you can do on the island...
The 5 star eco hotel is well worth a visit for a meal if you can't afford to stay there.
