Attractions · Krabi
Things to do in Krabi.
Ao Nang is the harbour town; the attractions are the water beyond it: Railay's cliffs, the Hong islands and the jungle pools inland.
Railay Beach and the Princess Cave
Cut off by limestone cliffs and reached only by boat, Railay holds some of Thailand's most beautiful beaches and its rock climbing capital.
How to book: Longtail boats from Ao Nang beach through the day; pay on the boat. Climbers book schools in Tonsai and Railay east.
Phi Phi from Ao Nang
The same archipelago as the Phuket run, a shorter crossing from Krabi: Maya Bay, the lagoon and the snorkelling stops.
How to book: Speedboat tours daily in season; Maya Bay beach visits close in the low season recovery weeks.
Search tickets and toursvia KlookHong Island and the 360 viewpoint
The Hong lagoon entered through a gap in the cliffs, a white sand bay, and a viewpoint platform over the whole archipelago.
How to book: Longtail and speedboat tours daily; park fees on top.
Search tickets and toursvia KlookEmerald Pool and the Hot Springs
A jungle walk to a mineral pool of impossible green, paired with natural hot tubs in the forest: Krabi's inland day.
How to book: Entry at the park gate. Tours combine both; go early, the pool fills by midday.
Search tickets and toursvia KlookTiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea)
1,260 steps up a karst tower to a summit Buddha and a view over all Krabi. A pilgrimage and a workout in one.
How to book: Free entry. Start early, carry water, and mind the monkeys on the lower steps.
Planning the stay itself: the city guides cover what is on, and the hotels page covers where to sleep near it.
