PAST EVENTS-KAO SOK 01.07 Home

Another beautifull week spent in the Kao Sok cave system lying in the Kao Sok national parc. We were a few divers to explore the cave system first mapped by Cedric Verdier this last year. All of the team members are experienced Instructors and Instructor Trainers from various agency's but this week was just for fun.

In order to dive Kao Sok, the team needed to bring over all the dive gear required. There is no dive center in this area... The diving is done from long tails chartered for the week and the accomodation is composed of basic bungalows forming bases used mostly for ecotourists wishing to visit the parc. The base is actually a floating village rigged to the side of the lake and is definitly very basic. Electricity is available between 6pm and 10pm, there is no telephone connection, the only means of communication is to use the VHF that links all bases to the park rangers. All in all its a pretty remote location were you feel fare away from the "civilised" world.

Here a few pics from the base camps. As mentionned they are very basic but neverless it's a great place to relax and forget about the world for a few days...
