The
mighty Mekong has many a tale to show and tell. And its Irrawaddy Dolphins are
one of them. These endangered dolphins
can be found in Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos and in Indonesian Borneo.
From
Kratie in Cambodia, its best to go to Kampi village to get a boat out into the
Mekong. These boatmen know the best
spots to enjoy these gentle dolphins. Just
make sure that you get agreement from the boatman that he’ll turn off the engines
once the dolphins are sighted. The dolphins
will usually go away at the sound of engines. Plus you’ll have the pleasure of a rejuvenating
and peaceful cruise on the mighty Mekong.
This
video by contemporarynomad gives an indication of this soothing excursion. And on the way back to Kratie, you can drop
by Phnom Sombok for a walkabout there.
