Krabi: Limestone Cliffs, Railay Beach & Island Hopping

Towering karst cliffs, hidden beaches reachable only by boat, emerald jungle pools and world-class island hopping — Krabi is southern Thailand at its most beautiful.

If you’ve seen a photo of Thailand with dramatic limestone cliffs plunging into turquoise water, chances are it was Krabi. This southern province is a paradise of hidden beaches, jungle and islands — more relaxed than Phuket, and arguably even more beautiful.

Highlights

  • Railay Beach — a stunning peninsula of cliffs and white sand, reachable only by long-tail boat, and a world-famous rock-climbing spot.
  • The Four Islands tour — snorkelling and swimming around Chicken Island, Tup Island and Phra Nang Cave Beach.
  • Emerald Pool & Hot Springs — jungle pools of warm, clear water inland.
  • Tiger Cave Temple — climb 1,200+ steps for a breathtaking panorama.
  • Ao Nang — the lively beach town that makes a great, central base.

Krabi is the perfect launch pad for the Andaman’s best islands, including Phi Phi and Hong.
