Krabi Ao Nang Area Info
Krabi Beaches INFO
Krabi's beaches are some of the best to be found anywhere and lie
within easy access from the main town of Krabi. Each has its own
attractions to offer the tourist -- be it simple relaxation in
the sun and sea, seclusion, or the opportunity to indulge in water
sports and other activities in the ultimate tropical paradise
locale. Krabi's main beaches are as follows:
Ao Pra Nang Beach
Ao Nang or Ao Phra Nang, features Krabi's most developed beach.
Fringed by palms, the long beach is backed by a wide range of
accommodation including resorts, bungalows and guesthouses. Most
travel services can be found here, and there is a good variety of
restaurants featuring both local and international cuisine. Due to
it's locale and range of services and accommodation, Ao Nang
serves as the ideal place to both stay put and relax, or from
which to explore surrounding islands and beaches.

Rai Lei Beach
The west side of the headland features a beautiful curved beach
backed by limestone cliffs and jungle which provide contrast with
the flat blue waters of the Andaman sea. The very picture of
tropical paradise, it is a favourite place for climbers and water
sport enthusiasts. Accommodation choice is surprisingly varied for
such a small area - everything to luxury resort style to the most
basic bungalows, and a few restaurants and bars provide the basic
necessities. High season is busy, but it's also worth making a
trip in low season when most activities can still be enjoyed, and
monsoon weather changes provide spectacular views over the ocean.
The east side of Rai Leh Beach is home mostly to mangroves, some
accommodation and restaurants. It is also the most convenient spot
from which to hail boat transport (unless you want to hike back
over the headland).
Tahm Pra Nang Beach
Within 10 minutes walk of Rai Leh east, this beach lies on the
outer most point of the headland and backed by a limestone cliff
housing the Outer Princess Cave or Tham Phra Nang Nok. Swimming
and snorkeling can be enjoyed off this pristine, white sandy
beach, and from here it is possible to hike to the top of the
headland to get spectacular views of the entire area.
Nopparat Thara Beach
Located within 18 km west of Krabi town, this quiet beach lies
within the Hat Noppharat Thara-Ko Phi Phi National Park and
features a long sandy stretch lined by casurina trees. Popular
with local Thai picnickers and those who like to swim and sun
worship, it is also possible at low tide to walk from the beach
across to some of the islands dotted in the bay. Great for a day
visit.
Krabi Islands
In the coastal waters off Krabi, lie more than 200 islands, some
of them inhabited, and many that belong to Hat Noppharat Thara-Ko
Phi Phi National Park. These islands offer a host of recreational
opportunities including reef diving and world-class rock climbing,
and harbor some of the most exotic, private beaches.

Phi Phi Islands
Comprising of two main islands, Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Ley, these
islands are a part of the Hat Noppharat Thara-Ko Phi Phi National
Park.
Phi Phi Don Island One of southern Thailand's most popular
tourist destinations, features sheer limestone cliffs and sandy
beaches. Anvil in shape, the island covers a total area of 28sq km
in length and 3.5km at its broadest point. The neck or handle of
the island is where the majority of the tourist accommodation and
services are located, and is the central point for boats to dock.
An uninhabited section of the island lies to the west, and Cape
Laem Tohng, on the northern tip, is home to the Chao Ley, or Sea
Gypsys. Diving at Laem Tohng is excellent, as it is also at Hua
Rah Ket to the extreme south.
Phi Phi Ley Island Eentirely comprised of steep cliffs, with
caves and a sea lake. It features several beautiful bays ideal for
snorkeling, and on the northeast side, the famous Viking Cave,
which contains pre-historic paintings. The island is also a
popular site for nesting swifts, and local people come there daily
to collect the nests used to make Bird's Nest Soup, a Chinese
delicacy.
To the north of Phi Phi Don lies Koh Yoong Island featuring 2
small beaches and well preseved coral gardens off shore.
Adjacent to Koh Yoong lies Koh Pai Island with small swimming
beaches on the north and east side, and coral gardens off the
south end.

southern most district of Krabi Province.
Koh Lanta Yai
The largest of the islands,it was known long ago by its name in
the Malay language, Pulao Satak, which means Long Beach Island.
The island is a favourite spot for those who seek peace and
solitude, and is the home of the District and National Park
offices. Mountainous and rugged in some spots, especially near the
southern tip; with a combination of gravelly and fine white sandy
beaches, the island is also home to a clan of Chao Ley, or Sea
Gypsies who preserve many of their ancient customs and ceremonies.
Some accomodation and services are available, and the island is
easily accessed by ferry from Ban Hua Hin Pier in Tambon Koh
Khlang; Bor Muang Pier in Tambon Sai Kao; or Jao Fah Pier in Krabi
Town.
