In keeping with the ideals of a Low Carbon Destination, there are no banana boats or jet-skis on Ko Mak. Instead, kayaking and sailing have grown in popularity as favourite activities. Both are environmentally-friendly alternatives and are great for anyone who likes a little exercise. The routes to the nearby islands are short; such as, between Ko Kham and Ko Phi. Ao Suan Yai is a nice spot for these activities as the wind is mild, the waves do not rise too high, and the water is not too deep.
