Hua Hin and Cha-am
Posted by admin in place
Krabi province is located 170 km south of Phuket and 800km from Bangkok and best known for it’s Phi Phi islands and the Susan Hoi seashell graveyard which is the only one of it’s kind in Southeast Asia and is approximately 75 Million years old.There are more then 100 islands surrounded by crystal clear waters best for snorkeling, diving and sailing. They can be accessed by public or longtail boats. Four national parks, tall limestone outcrops, caves, mangrove forests and hot springs invite you for a visit. Day trips are available to Phi Phi Islands, Koh Lanta, Trang and other islands.
Ao Nang is Krabi mainland’s most popular beach. It is still much less developed than Phuket and Koh Samui. For that reason it is a pleasant laid-back beach of great charm, spectacular sea views to the Poda Island group, and a varied choice of accommodation from Bht 100 to over Bht 2,500. New restaurants, scuba diving services, shops and day tours are being established all the time. Ao Nang is more a tourist beach than a traveller’s one. Many families from Northern Europe holiday here between November and April.
The sea gradient is shallow and suitable for children. The eastern end of the beach around Last Cafe is more relaxing with better tree shade and a greater distance from longtail boats. It is possible to walk around the cape at low tide from Last Cafe to deserted and untouched Pai Plong beach. Compared to Railay, Ao Nang offers a better choice of eating, drinking, and shopping facilities.
