Ao Phra Nang Krabi

We got up and neither of us were in a particularly good mood as it was before 6am and that's just not Kosher. We got picked up by the transfer bus and at the last pick up proceeded to wait an extra 30 minutes for some Frenchmen who had slept in. Honestly. We then got dropped at the Nathon jetty and after some stuffing around boarded our lovely fast …

We got up late as we wanted to really relax before diving and going home in a few days. We headed out for some breakfast and picked up some sticky rice, chicken and fried onion. 45 baht later we were eating our keel (chicken breast) and watching the longtail boats on Ao Nang beach. After this we walked down the streets and even though it was almost …

Nos recogieron en el hostel a la hora prometida y pronto llegamos al embarcadero para abordar el barco que nos llevaría hasta Krabi, un viaje de aproximadamente dos horas. Gran sorpresa cuando vimos que el barco era para unas 400 personas y nosotros sólo éramos 9 turistas más la tripulación… efectivamente estábamos en low …

Dalam perjalanan ke Krabi dengan menggunakan ferry,
ternyata saya harus transit di Phi Phi Island. Rasanya seperti sekali
mendayung dua tiga pulau terlampaui. Inginnya ke Krabi saja, tetapi
dapet bonus Phi Phi yang sangat indah, rasanya seperti di surga.

Tapi dari Phi Phi ke Krabi, tiba-tiba cuacanya
menjadi aneh. …

On the 24th we checked out and left the key with the cleaner. On leaving the receptionist began giving abuse to Stewart, how we should give her the key as she has to check the room before we can leave. Holly said just to ignore her and the girl walked away. We couldn't believe how rude they had been our entire stay, the lights didn't even work in …

As you've probably surmised by now, small islands are the thing to do in this part of southern
Thailand. Today we booked a tour of 4 of the most popular islands in this area.

We were picked up at our resort and transported about 15min into Ao Nang to a park type area near the water. It was here that all tours seemed to leave from. We …

So, we enjoyed the kayaking so much yesterday we had decided last night to return this morning, however we awoke to very cloudy skies and decided that the views would not be so great. All in all we have had fairly good weather this trip considering the tropical location. Apparently the super hard rain last night left behind the clouds.

…

The storms came in last night - still a great view as the clouds rolled in and travellers scattered. Had to have dinner under cover but was still excellent.
Caught the longtail boat to Ao Nang yesterday - seems different to my last memories or perhaps just because such a different world to Railay. We only tortured Brian briefly as we shopped …

Resan ner gick bra även om den blev väldigt lång och utdragen! På måndag morgonen började jag med att ta tåget upp till Sandviken för att gå igenom de sista planerna inför resan med Anna. Vi bestämde oss rätt snabbt för att skippa planen på att stanna i Bangkok i några dagar och bokade istället ett flyg vidare till Krabi.

På måndag …

6am next morning, Marios is standing in the street trying to flag down a taxi, since there are no taxi offices here. All the routes have standard prices and all the taxi drivers stick together in not lowering them so that creates business for everyone at quite unreasonable prices, and headaches for tourists who don't have their own means of …

... up out of the sand and sea. We stayed firmly on the sand though and walked the 5 minute trail through the rocks to Ao Phra Nang which is reportedly the best beach in the area. It was stunning! Powdery beige sand, clear emerald green water with no bits ...

... of travel behind us, we settled into our final longtail boatride in the setting sun. The peninsula of Laem Phra Nang, near Krabi on the Andaman Coast of Thailand, is only accessible by boat and feels like an island. As our longtail turned the final ...

... tourist swimmers admiring them from below in the emerald green water.  The sand was also very soft, although narrow at Ao Phra Nang beach.  Also, the development on the beaches is also not very offensive and blends well into the lush ...

... kayaking out to the huge limestone islands just out to sea, which was pretty amazing. Just around the bay from here was Ao Phra Nang, which we only discovered on the last day when we did the kayaking. This is another stunning beach with some great ...

... . Never mind - we found a cafe serving real sausages for breakfast, and the beautiful beaches of Railay and Ao Phra Nang were just a 10 minute longtail boat ride away: Stunning rock formations bordering the beaches, with dripping stalactites hanging ...

... say nothing of the smell at low tide. A bit further walk down towards the end of the point, and you hit a real stunner in Ao Phra Nang. It is far less known than Ao Nang (which is also piss poor), Railay, or Ton Sai, but is hands down the most beautiful ...

... , sólo asequible desde la este, siguiendo la orilla de playa y de ahí caminando bajo impresionantes estalactitas, está Ao Phra Nang. Preciosa, agua verde verde y calentita (eso sí con bastantes medusas piconas), con rocas y estalactitas increíbles y ...
