The beaches of Krabi are renowned for their beauty and wide range of activities.

Ao Nang, in Thailand’s Krabi province, is like a dream destination, drawing travelers from around the world. Ao Nang’s beaches are famous for their stunning landscapes, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and impressive limestone cliffs that rise from the sea like natural monuments. It’s a place to enjoy tranquility and beauty, but there’s also plenty of activity for all kinds of travelers.

1. Ao Nang Beach

One of the most famous beaches is Ao Nang Beach, with its soft sand and relaxed beachside restaurants, making it the perfect spot to unwind and watch the sunset. From here, it’s easy to catch a longtail boat to nearby islands like the renowned Railay Beach and Phra Nang Beach, both of which are inaccessible by car. Railay Beach is globally known for rock climbing, while snorkeling and kayaking are also popular activities.

2. Phra Nang Beach

Phra Nang Beach offers visitors a unique experience, with sea caves to explore and Phra Nang Cave, dedicated to the goddess of the sea and local fishermen. The lush landscapes combined with towering cliffs along the shore make it an incredible place to visit.

The limestone islands off Ao Nang’s coast look like something out of a fairy tale: massive limestone formations rise sharply over the turquoise sea, creating enchanting views. Islands like Koh Poda, Chicken Island, and Tup Island get their names from unique rock formations, and each island has its own charm.

3. Koh Poda

Koh Poda is known for its long, soft sandy beaches and dazzling blue waters, where vibrant coral reefs offer ideal conditions for snorkeling and diving. Chicken Island’s cliff formations resemble a chicken, giving the island its name—it’s a fun sight, and the nearby underwater reefs are perfect for snorkeling.

These limestone islands are not only beautiful but also covered in exotic vegetation. The views are particularly stunning as you approach the islands by longtail boat, gliding over the water as the curved cliffs come into view. Crystal-clear waters reflect the colors of the sky, especially at sunset when the light makes the surface of the limestone islands glow.
