Ao Nang Beach, Krabi Province, Thailand

3.5 (7.846 reviews) Monday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent Ranking #23 in Krabi Province Beaches

Good beach

Great beach for the morning where you can get some shade under the beach side trees but this disappears as the sun swings round about lunchtime. Then its full on sunshine! Beach is noisy from long tail boats leaving Ao Nang ferry point and this is consistant throughout the day. What is handy are the 7-11's across the beach road if you want cheap drinks and ice creams. There are beach vendors but they are not persistent. Just give a polite 'no thank you' and they tend not to call back. Beach gets very busy at sunset as the whole town seems to appear with drinks and cameras to catch the wonderful sunsets.

Nice view, but closer inspection might worry you
It was a great view, but once you head down to the water, you'll find it murky and a little off putting. Truth be told, we walked further up towards Railay Bay direction for slightly cleaner and clearer water. Also, it's crazy crowded; if you're looking for quieter spots, you can try Klong Muang Beach which is slightly further, but the beach and waters are cleaner and quieter there. Great thing about this place is the accessibility of food and shops. And I recommend going online to check for tours prices before purchasing any tours with the local travel agents; always haggle because locals there generally will overcharge you the moment they see that you're a tourist.

Beware of the Long boat Con men taking payment for entry to the Islands and pocketing it,
No Arguments, Thailand is an Amazing place !! HOWEVER ! The Beach at Ao Nang is very poor, plastic bottles wash up every day, the drivers of the Long tail boats that take you to the little Island/bays/beaches are on to a CON, They tell you there is a 400 Baht entry fee to get access to the Islands (A national park fee) but they just pocket the money and take you around the back of the island past the toll booths. I opted not to pay them and said I would pay when I arrived at whatever Island we were going to be visiting that day and they got abusive and threatening, demanding that I pay them and if we did not pay they would leave us stranded on the Island so be prepared to pay an additional fee on top of your ticket price !!
