Sail around the sprawling Khao Laem Lake, which translates into "Pointed Mountain Lake". This remote region is in Thailand's northwest close to the Burmese (Myanmar) border.

Enjoy a slow drift through the stunning scenery from the comfort of the second-floor sundeck. Take a swim, go kayaking, fishing, mingle with other travelers or relax with a book and your favorite drink. You will have the opportunity to visit small natural caves and a remote plantation for a rare strain of coconut called Coconut Island. You will also be able to ride elephants in their natural habitat (see more about Visit Beyond's ethical travel principles) and go bamboo rafting.
