The gulf of Thailand - Mangrove Forests – last fishermen village of Bangkok – Sea aquarium

Bang Khuntien is the only one place in Bangkok face to the ocean. It is not only an important eco-tourism destination with Mangrove Forest but also has the only surviving fishing community of Bangkok. They protect the coastline and prevent land erosion by collecting sediment from the rivers and streams and slowing down the flow of water. The forests also are the nursery grounds for juvenile fish, crabs, shrimps and mollusks.

The start 3.7 km of the trip is the Bang Khuntien nature study wood trial which is the high light of this trip. It is where we can see various types of birds, crabs and fish.
