THE JOURNEY IS PART OF THE EXPERIENCE

From Open Lake to Hidden Cave

Your Coral Cave join-in adventure begins with a scenic longtail boat journey across Cheow Lan Lake. Follow your local guide through lush rainforest trails, cross the hidden inner lake on a traditional bamboo raft, and discover the spectacular limestone formations of Pakarang Cave.

Every step offers a new perspective of Khao Sok's extraordinary natural beauty.

INSIDE THE CAVE

Limestone Formed Beneath an Ancient Sea

Inside the cave, the landscape changes completely. The bright lake and rainforest give way to cool limestone chambers filled with stalactites, stalagmites and unusual mineral formations. The cave takes its name from formations that resemble coral, giving rise to the Thai name Pakarang and the English name Coral Cave. The route is guided throughout, allowing visitors to explore the accessible sections while protecting the natural environment.

YOUR CORAL CAVE ADVENTURE ROUTE

Journey Through Cheow Lan Lake

Your Coral Cave join-in tour takes you through the breathtaking scenery of Cheow Lan Lake into the Khlong Long area of Khao Sok National Park.

 

Starting from Ratchaprapha Pier, enjoy a scenic shared longtail boat ride before following your local guide along a rainforest trail. Cross the hidden inner lake by traditional bamboo raft and continue to the fascinating limestone formations of Pakarang Cave.

 

The journey combines spectacular lake views, tropical rainforest, and a unique cave exploration experience.

Coral Cave is located in the Khlong Long area of Cheow Lan Lake, one of the western sections of the reservoir reached by longtail boat from Ratchaprapha Pier. Because the cave sits beyond the main waterways, the journey naturally combines lake travel with rainforest walking and the bamboo raft crossing across Talay Nai, the inner lake.
