Krabi province is known for towering limestone cliffs that rise straight out of the sea. Ao Nang is the main resort area, and Railay, reached only by boat, is famous for rock climbing and its beaches.

Island hopping

Hop between Hong, Poda and Chicken islands. The Hong Islands have a lagoon among their cliffs, and the Four Islands boat trip makes a full day out.

On land

Kayak through the mangroves, and climb the steps of the Tiger Cave Temple for views across the province.

Before you go

Entry and visas

Entry rules for Thailand depend on your passport and can change. Check the official sources below before you book and again before you travel. If you need Thailand's online arrival card, use only the government's own website.

Health

See your doctor or a travel clinic a few weeks before you go. Use sun protection, drink plenty of water, guard against mosquito bites and take care with food and water.

Money

Thailand's currency is the baht (THB). Carry cash for markets, street food and small shops, and ask your bank what your card costs to use abroad.
