What should I keep in mind about tides if I'm planning a kayaking trip in Khao Lak?

Tides significantly impact kayaking conditions. It's best to plan your trip around high tide, which usually makes for smoother waters and safer paddling. • Additionally, be aware of tide changes throughout your outing. Launching during high tide can help you explore further before the water recedes, and it’s wise to ensure you have enough time to return safely before the tide goes out.
