Krabi

On the west coast of southern Thailand, Krabi province is home for the most beautiful group of islands in the Andaman Sea, with white-sand beaches and crystal clear waters, mangrove forests, jungle valleys and hidden lagoons framed by stunning limestone cliffs. Its astonishing coral reefs are one of the world’s most beautiful, which makes it the perfect destination for those who are passionate for snorkeling and scuba-diving.

From attending extravagant beach parties to island hopping on a long-tail boat until sunset, the most popular budget-friendly attractions include: • Hong Island and Hong Lagoon • Railay Beach • Krabi Night Market • Ao Nang Beach • Emerald Pool • Phi Phi Islands • Wat Tham Sua

BEST TIME TO VISIT

The best time to visit Krabi is from late November to April, when the monsoon has passed and the Andaman Sea turns into a calm, turquoise dream. This is when the beaches look like postcards, the skies stay mostly blue, and boat trips to places like Railay or the Phi Phi Islands feel like scenes from a movie.

If you’re after quiet beaches, crystal-clear water, and the full tropical escape, this dry season window is your go-to. Just avoid the heavy rains from May to October, unless you don’t mind dodging showers and enjoying a more peaceful (but wetter) side of Krabi.
