Krabi at a glance

Krabi is a province on the Andaman coast, across Phang Nga Bay from Phuket.

We cover five areas on its mainland coast: Krabi Town on the river, the beach towns of Ao Nang and Nopparat Thara, Klong Muang further north-west, and the Railay peninsula, which you reach by boat. Koh Phi Phi has its own pages. The other islands, Koh Lanta among them, are separate trips we have not covered yet.

Distances decide a lot here. Our Krabi Town picks are under 9km from the airport in a straight line, and our Klong Muang picks are more than 26km from it. Pick the area first, then the hotel.
