Tour Overview & Description
Crystal Spring Canal Paddle, Submerged Freshwater Forests & Natural Swimming Lagoon
Khlong Root (also known as Khlong Nam Sai or Clear Water Canal) is one of Krabi's most magical hidden natural gems. Fed by natural freshwater springs bubbling up through underground limestone strata, the canal boasts crystal clarity like glass.
Glide across serene freshwater that reveals submerged tree roots, lush aquatic flora, and schools of freshwater fish swimming beneath your kayak. The gentle paddle leads to a pristine natural swimming basin where you can plunge into cool, revitalizing mineral water surrounded by tropical greenery.
