Rock Climbing Holiday Thailand: CTYN
6-island Climbing Sea Safari – 5 nights
Description
A sea-borne smorgasboard of climbing adventures - climbing, deep water soloing, bouldering, deep water slacklining, island hopping and beach barbequeing
Escape the crowds and queues to tranquil Koh Yao Noi, ideally placed to serve as your base from which to climb the Phang Nga archipelago. Many brand new routes and a superb, airy, new crag for the 2008/2009 season - the Mitt. Harder routes awaiting second ascent. Koh Yao Noi is next year's best thing - leave the zoo behind and enjoy Tonsai at its best, in low season. Everything is organised for you at a fraction of the cost of doing it independantly - six islands, seven climbing crags, four DWS crags, deep water slack-lining, bouldering, four whole days' use of a longtail boat, accommodation, transfers, lunches, guiding - we'll even make sure you don't get shot at by any birds' nest collectors.
