Swimtrek Unveils Its First Southeast Asian Trips
SwimTrek is thrilled to announce its further development of the highest quality, round the world swimming adventures with the launch of TWO Southeast Asia tours. SwimTrek’s incredible liveaboard experience in the Komodo National Park – Indonesia opened to great success in December and is complemented further with the release of its Lan Ha Bay – Vietnam trip this month. Both are an unbelievable adventure for the SwimTrekker who loves exploring the lush greenery of Asian islands and their bays and discovering the many surrounding islets and karsts, in some of the most remote and beautiful corners of the world. Our Vietnam trip takes us to the largest of the island of the Cat Ba archipelago, CatBa itself, which will serve as a base for this exploratory expedition.
Surrounded by over 360 islands, there are endless opportunities for swimming adventures here. Our Indonesia trip is the latest in SwimTrek’s offering of unique liveaboard holidays, with our base for the week the stunning SMY Oceanic yachts. Ensuring that you’re never far from the action, spend your days surrounded by the water as we swim and sail the stunning Lesser Sunda Islands and explore the Komodo National Park.
The swimming on offer is a variety of intricate explorations of these many tiny islets and crossings of these calm bay waterways. Highlights include a full circumnavigation of Vietnam’s Ba Trai Do island as well as the chance to hike up Cannon Fort on Cat Ba Island itself, providing incredible, panoramic views of Cat Gia Bay. Our Indonesia trip offers the opportunity to discover the nooks and caves of the main Komodo island itself, as well as the chance to discover, is surrounding, smaller sister islands. Guests of both trips should be capable of managing the daily average swim distances of 4-5km.
SwimTrek is running its Komodo National Park – Indonesia and Lan Ha Bay – Vietnam trips in June and October 2018 respectively. Prices start from £2,100 for a twin share cabin in Indonesia and £1,050 for a Superior twin/double room with ocean view in Vietnam.
