Krabi

Activities in Krabi

Activities in Krabi are endless for those who wish to exert some energy. Many tour operators offer day trips, either by speed boat or traditional longtail boat, which tour the islands off of the Krabi coast. From Ao Nang, one can take a four island tour to the likes of Koh Poda, Koh Mawr, Koh Tup and Koh Gai (Chicken Island), named so because of unusual chicken-like shape taken on by the limestone structure, towering above the blue waters in which it lies.For a small fee, one can often find a kayak to hire along almost any beach in Krabi. This is a great way to explore the archipelago along the Krabi coast, and the best way to get right up close to the beautiful lime stone karsts which jut out so dramatically from the crystal clear waters of the Andaman Sea. Krabi also boasts the best snorkelling and scuba-diving locations in Thailand and the warm, clean and calm waters are a great place to learn if one has never snorkelled or scuba-dived before.In the jungles of Krabi, there are many hikes which end in stunning viewpoints from which to admire your tropical surrounds. And if you don't want to use your own legs to get there, why not arrange an elephant trek, where one can ride these gentle beasts along a jungle path and possibly even through rivers and mud, all while taking in the beautiful flora and fauna of Krabi province.
