The Experience

Before You Go

Book morning pickups

Morning slots have calmer winds and clearer views for ziplines and make the most of cooler temperatures on the ATV loop.

Wear closed, grippy shoes

ATVs and platform ladders demand secure footwear — avoid sandals and bring shoes you don’t mind dusting.

Carry ID and any medical notes

Guides will check fitness and restrictions; disclose recent injuries, pregnancy or heart conditions before starting.

Hydrate before you go

Though bottled water is provided, start hydrated and sip steadily between activities to avoid lightheadedness.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Stop briefly at a roadside rubber‑tree clearing for unobstructed views of Sai Yuan Bay at dusk.
  • Ask guides about a short viewpoint off the ATV loop where local fishermen beach small longtails on calm days.

Wildlife

  • Monitor lizards
  • Tropical birds like kingfishers and bulbuls

Conservation Note

Operators commonly limit group sizes and stick to established tracks to reduce erosion; avoid off‑route riding and pack out trash to protect fragile coastal vegetation.

The ridgelines above Sai Yuan Bay were historically worked for rubber and smallholder agriculture; recent years have seen those tracks repurposed for adventure tourism.
