Expedition Course #3: Coastal Ecology and Culture, pt. I


Bang [Southern Thai for "Older Brother"] Eyat's long-tail boat, which served as our team's support boat for the kayaking portions of our trip.

The tidal mud flats in Koh Mook. We explored this area during low tide (pictured) and discovered hundreds of spectacular organisms, from star fish and ghost crabs to sea cucumbers and snails.

Bang Eyat and his brother's long-tails pulled up on the sands of Koh Kradang, where we snorkeled in the area's coral reef and took a study break on the beach.
