Beach Escapes in Thailand
Located 850km south of Bangkok, Krabi province is quickly becoming ‘the’ sun and fun destination in Thailand. This exhilarating experience at the southern beach paradise of Ao Nang Beach is the perfect way to round out your time in Thailand.
Nearby Railay Bay, where climbers dangle from limestone cliffs that rise hundreds of feet straight from the ocean, is just a short longtail boat ride away and a perfect place to enjoy your days on one of the many beaches. For the more adventurous, the area is a perfect place to paddle a sea kayak, take a climbing course, snorkel, scuba dive, hike, bike or learn how to be a fire-juggler from one of the locals. While you’re in the area, listen carefully and the sound of jaws dropping can be heard – it’s really that spectacular.
Ao Nang Bay features dozens of hotel and resort options for all travel enthusiasts. Rather than an exhausted and redundant list of every possible place to stay we have highlighted some of our favorites - encompassing the best locations, finest experiences, featuring a range of resort styles and prices.
These unescorted extensions include return airfare from Bangkok to Krabi aboard Thai Airways, return airport transfer from the Krabi International Airport to your hotel, air conditioned accommodation, breakfast daily and our handy Smiling Albino Adventure Kit full of tips to help you make the most of your time.
