Hi Tina, My friend had previously brought to my attention this kayak rental service provider called Paddleasia at http://paddleasia.com/rentals.htm, which I think is really suitable for us paddlers who are interested in doing serious touring in real seak kayaks instead of just a short hour or two paddle around in a sit-on-top. I only took a SOT out at sea for two hours just off Krabi-Phra Nang area when I was there for a climbing trip last December - the numerous sea caves are really worth exploring, and the nice emerald green waters will tempt you to abandon your kayak and jump in for a snorkel...good to bring your snorkelling gear along! Look out for the right season for paddling though, the tempestuous monsoon weather is a real danger, and it comes at different times for the east coast and the west coast of southeast Asia; definitely important to do some preliminary research.
