Watersports at Lake Taco

If you feel like trying out some water sports, then it is recommended that you check out Beung Tako, otherwise known as Lake Taco in Samut Prakan. I was there the other weekend, and despite it being tucked away down a quiet soi, there were quite a few people on the lake including a number of foreigners.

If you want to go waterskiing then normally you have to also rent a boat and a driver. On a small lake, you are then probably restricted to only one or two boats. At Lake Taco they use a cable system which pulls you round a circuit that includes ramps and other obstacles.

They also have wakeboarding at Lake Taco. This is a cross between waterskiing, snowboarding and surfng.

At Lake Taco they have boards for all different levels. If you don't think that you can stand up then you could always kneel down. The cost is only 300 baht for two hours or 500 baht for four hours. There are discounts for annual membership. Prices are the same for Thai people. The basic boards are free or you can rent a wakeboard for about 200 baht.
