1. 4.0 Maya Bay (8.793 reviews)
   - Beautiful … but book an early morning tour
   Bodies of Water • Beaches
   
   
   The world famous Maya Bay, location of the film “The Beach” starring Leonardo Dicaprio, located in Phi Phi Ley, with white sandy beach, surrounded by gigantic limestone cliffs and coral reefs. See more..
   
2. 4.5 PhraNang Cave Beach (6.339 reviews)
   - Best Beach in Railay
   Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent More than 3 hours Beaches
   
   
   The beach is empty in the morning until around 10 am. Use this time to your advantage and relax in a quiet, tranquil environment. At sunset the beach tends to be less crowded than Railay with equal (if not better) views. Be sure to look at the rock faces and how they change color as the sun sets. See more..
   
3. 4.0 Railay Beach (5.757 reviews)
   - Amazing
   Beaches
   
   
   West Railay, Phra Nang, and East Railay Beach make up this tranquil strip of sand. Accessible only by boat, you can easily find a secluded and peaceful spot to relax, sunbathe, and enjoy the crystal clear waters. There are pursuits like cliff jumping, rock climbing, and kayaking for the more adventurous. Park yourself at a Reggae bar and sip a delightful cocktail as you watch the sunset. The dry season between November and March is the best time to visit Railay. You can take a boat from Krabi, Phuket, or Koh Phi Phi to get there. – Tripadvisor See more..
   
4. 4.5 Koh Phi Phi Viewpoint (5.084 reviews)
   - Worth the hike up the stairs.
   Spent 1-2 hours Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   We did this in the morning as it gets hot during the day and its more challenging to do it during the day. After getting to the top view point one you can keep on going up to view point 2 where there is nice places to take photos and enjoy a cold drink or beer at the bar up there. I recommend going in the morning or even for sunrise on sunset and try to avoid going during the day. There is stores to buy water before the stairs begin not much while on the stairs. Enjoy ! See more..
   
5. 4.5 Poda Island (3.902 reviews)
   - Nice small island easily reachable by boat
   Islands
   
   
   You can reach easily Poda island from Aonang beach by boat, return ticket is 300 bhat and national park fee is additional 200. You will just have to wait while at least 6 people come for the same ride bit in a season it is very quick, it is 15 minutes ride from Aonang. Better go there earlier in the morning beacause the last return is at 4pm. The same boat will wait for you for the way back. You will be taken at the front beach just for individual trips and probbably won't be busy. The beach at the other side is for islands excursions and is crowded with tours if you come after 12 pm. But you can walk there to buy drinks or ice cream, there is a park as well. You can ask your boat driver to take you at the secret beach for some fee you give him extra. It is beautiful little spot at the edge of Poda island good for snorkling, you will see a lot of fish there. See more..
   
6. 4.5 Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea) (3.858 reviews)
   - Wat thum sua
   Religious Sites
   
   
   The Tiger Cave Temple in southern Thailand serves as a religious site for the monks who live and worship there, and features a maze of natural caves in an overgrown jungle valley. This Buddhist complex is also popular with believers and travelers. Here, you can enjoy the views of the surroundings, and admire archaeological findings, which include stone tools, pottery remains, and the mold allegedly used to make Buddha’s footprints. Take your time to climb over 1,200 steps leading to the summit, and join a guided tour to visit the caves and learn more about the temple. – Tripadvisor See more..
   
7. 4.5 Bamboo Island (3.599 reviews)
   - Don’t go first in the morning!!
   Islands
   
   
   We took a boat trip to phi phi islands and on our way back we stopped on the bamboo island to relax. Like our tour guide said, most of the tours go to bamboo island in the morning and it’s packed of tourists. When we went in the afternoon, yes there were people but not so much it would have bothered in any way! The water is stunning clear and the beach is wide full of white clean sand. For smokers and alcoholic drinkers, this is a national park area, meaning please don’t litter. Alcohol is not allowed in the island (what I understood) and smoking on the beach is not allowed. However!! There are marked smoking spots and they are nicely located so the sun won’t be burning you. It’s worth an experience! See more..
   
8. 4.0 Lanta Old Town (2.858 reviews)
   - Very interesting visit
   Historic Sites • Historic Walking Areas
   
   
   Lanta Old Town is a small village on Ko Lanta's East Coast in Krabi Province. Many years ago, Ko Lanta's Old Town acted as the port and commercial center for the island and provided safe harbor for Arabic and Chinese trading vessels sailing between the larger ports of Phuket, Penang and Singapore. Today, Old Town is the district capital; it has a post office, police station, Buddhist temple, Chinese temple and the island's hospital as well as a long pier. See more..
   
9. 4.5 Ko Phi Phi Le (2.429 reviews)
   - Not everything there is worth your time
   Islands • Caverns & Caves
   
   
   It was a nice trip with some kind of scam too... We were THE FIRST who arrived at Maya Bay and had the most peaceful 1 hour there. It's prohibited to swim there, due to the replanting of the corals. Pi Leh Lagoon was another outstanding place there. But Viking Cave simply shouldn't be on the list of the attractions, nothing special there, you cannot even go inside, because it's private property. Instead of "Monkey Beach" our guide brought us to "Monkey Bay"..... If you are going to buy a tour to Phi Phi and don't understand which places you should visit and what is better to avoid or maybe need some recommendations on which boat to choose, at what time to go, and what to take with you, then our video might be helpful for you. Easily to find it by the title on YouTube: "You better learn THIS before going to Phi Phi Island Tour" Hope it helps. We also took some drone shots, just look at this beautiful nature. See more..
   
10. 4.5 Long Beach (2.160 reviews)
    - Incredible!! Bright indigo ocean as far as the eye can see!
    Spent 1-2 hours Beaches
    
    
    This is the nicest beach I've seen in Thailand! Not very crowded, and there are plenty restaurants and shops to get a cold drink at so you dont necessarily have to stay put if you dont want too. The water is perfectly temperate for those 35+°C days. There is a restaurant called LYMs on the beach at the long beach chalet resort, the food is great and prices there are very reasonable, I would recommend that to anybody who finds them selves in the long beach area. I'll be coming back here garunteed! See more..
    
11. 4.0 Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot) (1.915 reviews)
    - Nice excursion
    Geologic Formations
    
    
    The Emerald pool was green, brilliant swim. Just the walk from the car park to here was though serene green patch of trees. For the blue pool - you would have to walk another 15 mins - you cannot swim at the blue pool, but it’s just so eye pleasing and picturesque. See more..
    
12. 4.0 Tup Island (1.732 reviews)
    - Walk through low tide
    Islands
    
    
    We booked a 4 islands tour from ao nang and tup was one of the stops. Great beach and when the tide gets lower you can walk through sea to the opposite tup island. Overcrowded because 4 islands tour is one of the most famous but you can find your space to enjoy the beach. See more..
    
13. 4.5 Hong Islands (1.589 reviews)
    - Charter a longtail and visit Hong island
    Islands
    
    
    We chartered a longtail boat from outside our hotel at one of the tour info booths set up on the beach in Tup Kaek. They picked us up right outside so we didn't have to take a taxi or anything. We did 4 stops on the Hong Islands tour. We spent 2hours at the first beach that is a national park. Absolutely gorgeous. Book an early tour so you can beat the crowds. See more..
    
14. 4.5 Koh Rok Island (1.538 reviews)
    - Absolutely Fantastic
    Islands
    
    
    This without doubt has to be in the top 10 places to snorkel in the world. I’ve swam in other tropical places around the world & on some special reefs, but this place takes some beating by a long way. Our hotel ( Layana) in Ko Lanta arranged everything for us in a group of 12. Maximum was 16 so no crowds. Yes there was other boats around at the stopping off points but I was able to swim in 3 different locations & nobody came within 100mts of me. The fish are soooooo abundant & the varieties are to many to mention. The water is so clear. To be honest you’d think you were swimming in an aquarium. If you get the chance? Just go!!!! See more..
    
15. 4.0 Phra Nang Cave (1.321 reviews)
    - Apsolutely Stunning!
    Caverns & Caves
    
    
    It is reachable from Ao Nang by long tail boat, and it is worth spending all day long there. Pra Nang Cave is wonderful and unusual cave because it is not under the ground level, but it has very unusual stone relief. There is beautiful Pra Nang beach with nice white sand and smaragd green sea water. Beautiful and amazing! See more..
    
16. 4.5 Railay View Point (1.272 reviews)
    - Fun climb and amazing view!
    Lookouts
    
    
    Well, we were the «stupid ones» and wore flips flops. Not out of ignorance, but because we didn’t want to get our sneakers covered in red mud, which is impossible to wash off. That being said, I do not recommend wearing flip flops as the climb is steep and slippery, but we went during dry season and are reasonably fit and flexible. It was an easy enough climb up, but somewhat harder going down. The view from the viewpoint is absolutely amazing and well worth it. Expect 15 minutes up and about the same down. Also recommended going an hour or so before sunset as there were hardly anyone else there. See more..
    
17. 4.0 Krabi Weekend Night Market (1.263 reviews)
    - A good local market
    Flea & Street Markets
    
    
    There are actually several night markets all within walking distance in Krabi. The area around walking street is the one most tourists go to. It has a selection of stalls selling motr local stuff than the Ao Nang markets. You won’t get knock off designer gear here but instead a range of more locally produced goods. There is also food with seating arranged round a stage for various performers. There is a fresh fruit and food market close by, a food market with small pop up restaurants by the river and another market between that and the walking street market. I would recommend visiting the one by the river for a meal. You choose your pop up restaurant, they have some tables and chairs and if you want something like a fruit smoothie from another vendor they bring it to you. It works well and the food is delicious. We finished off with the most amazing crispy rotti with condensed milk. See more..
    
18. 4.0 Mu Koh Lanta National Park (994 reviews)
    - Don’t bother
    National Parks • Parks
    
    
    We were exploring the west coast of the island when we got to the park entrance and thought why not. At 200bht per person plus an amount depending on your type of transport, it’s not cheap. It’s actually a tiny amount of space. Most of the one beach isn’t swimmable unless the tide is fully in due to the number of rocks. The beach sadly has lots of washed up litter on which we were surprised, especially given the park entry fee, wasn’t being cleared. The scramble up to the lighthouse gives a good view but is a 10 minute activity. The staff seemed more interested in keeping the grass immaculately manicured than anything else, which jarred with this being a national park. We saw one small lizard the whole time we were there. We saw more wildlife on the ride down. Would not reccomend the time/cost of this See more..
    
19. 4.5 Khlong Muang Beach (810 reviews)
    - Breathtaking sunset
    Beaches
    
    
    The beach is located in front of Sofitel Krabi, separated by a road. It’s less crowded here compared to Ao Nang Beach. Water sports are available by private operator. Beach chairs (w/out umbrella) and towels are provided to hotel guests. No lifeguard at both the beach and hotel pools. Breathtaking sunset, come before 6:30pm if you need a photo, sunset time as of end January 2020. See more..
    
20. 4.5 Lanta Klong Nin Beach (700 reviews)
    - Long, clean, safe beach
    Beaches
    
    
    A long golden sand beach backed by a few resorts and a whole range of bars and restaurants which all seem to offer good quality cheap food and happy hour(s) cocktails. Most offer deck chairs and sun umbrellas for free with little or no pressure to order food or drinks. Try Jai-Dee Home, my favourite. See more..

22. 4.0 Monkey Trail (568 reviews)
    - Lots of monkeys!!
    Spent 1-2 hours National Parks
    
    
    We came one morning about 10am and were lucky to come across a pack of 50 monkey passing through the trail. It was amazing! They were lovely to watch and didn’t do anything unless u had food in your hand. The monkeys always managed to win the fight and run away with their reward. The trail itself was very old and rickety but was still accessible. We did go back a few times to try and see them again with no luck. See more..
    
23. 4.5 Khlong Dao Beach (563 reviews)
    - One of the best beaches in Thailand
    Beaches
    
    
    Perfect beach, sun, sea and sand. Oh and a few bars and restaurants and massage parlours and shops. The sun is hot, the sea is warm the sand is soft and the cocktails and sunsets are amazing! What's not to love about it! See more..

25. 4.0 Wat Kaew Ko Wararam (392 reviews)
    - Tranquil
    Spent 1-2 hours Points of Interest & Landmarks
    
    
    I spent over an hour here watching the cute kittens plying with the interior of the temple and loved it. There was also a dog visiting for some time. The time spent was really worth it to cool down and just meditate for some time. See more..
    
26. 4.5 Lagoon (380 reviews)
    - My Favorite Beach Area in Thailand!
    Spent 2-3 hours Bodies of Water
    
    
    We have visited Panang Beach and this lagoon several times over the years! The Lagoon area and the adjacent sandy beaches are some of the most beautiful we have seen in the world! This is my favorite place in all of Thailand! This lagoon is not the one that you need to climb over the mountain to get there. It is the lagoon at the end of a walking trail that leads from the other side of Railay Beach to the ferry boats docking area. It was an easy walk from our Railay Beach resort too. See more..
    
27. 4.5 Ko Rok Nok (375 reviews)
    - Koh Rok and Koh Ha day trip
    Islands
    
    
    Lying south of Phuket, these twin islands are known for their pristine white beaches and colorful coral reefs for snorkeling and diving. See more..
    
28. 4.0 Mosquito Island (359 reviews)
    - Very good for snorkeling
    Islands
    
    
    Great snorkeling place but be warned, the island does earns its name. Take some mosquito spray or cream with you to protect yourself when out of the water. From personal experience i recommend the local ones made with lemon grass.Works like a charm. See more..
    
29. 4.5 Khao Mai Kaew Cave (313 reviews)
    - Great adventure
    Caverns & Caves
    
    
    We got quite a bit more than we expected. The whole trip requires some sure footedness. The walk to the cave is in the forest which is very pretty and they have made ladders in the difficult places. the cave is awesome but we were warned there are some difficult bits which turned out to be easily manageable as we are relatively fit and do walk at home alot. We were lucky in that our guide spoke very good English and was really informative about the area, the history the culture and the farming, as well as the caves itself. It certainly enhanced our experience. Most of the cave is spacious so I did not get claustrophobic as I have done in other caves previously. See more..
    
30. 4.0 Ao Nang Night Market (297 reviews)
    - Great Atmosphere
    Spent More than 3 hours Flea & Street Markets

31. 4.5 Ao Tha Lane (286 reviews)
    - Very nice excursion
    Thursday: 8:30 AM - 6:15 PM Beaches
    
    
    Nice excursion but pay attention. When you book ask about the tide. If the tide is low you have a limited excursion as you cannot go till the end of the canyon, while with high tide you can have a round trip but even with low tide you will see an amazing canyon with limestone and also mangrovias, even the monkeys. See more..
    
32. 4.5 Laem Tong Bay (285 reviews)
    - snow beach!
    Beaches
    
    
    In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful beaches on the islands around Phuket. A unique beach with white sand. We had lunch here, and after that we had an hour to swim and relax by the beach. If you are lucky, you may also get this experience and stop on a tour of one of the islands. See more..
    
33. 4.5 Pileh Bay (282 reviews)
    - Go there early morning
    Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Beaches
    
    
    Definitely must-see. I recommend you to come early morning, at least by 8-9, because after this there are too many boats. It's a nice place for swimming and drone shots. And if you are planning to see Maya Bay as well it's better if you go there at 6-6:30 am, the beach will be empty. We also shot the video that showed where else you can go, and if you in general interested to see the main attractions in Phi Phi but still doubting or choosing where to go first, then type the title on YouTube: "You better learn THIS before going to Phi Phi Island Tour" We made a detailed guide with maps and locations for snorkeling, describing where are the main attractions, which boat is better to choose and which places don't worth your time. See more..
    
34. 4.0 Khlong Khong Beach (280 reviews)
    - Beautiful Sunsets
    Beaches
    
    
    Khlong Khong is a great beach. The water is as hot as soup during high tide and little to no wave activity, typical of the coastline. Unfortunately, during low tide you cant swim owing to a dead reef (caused by construction, beach modification and tourism). The establishments along the beach are really nice, with a family friendly and chilled vibe. No doef doef of Phuket and Phi Phi. Plastic straws and plastic water bottles remain a problem. So if you ever visit any of the places along the beach please decline straws. Sometimes a single round of drinks between 4 of you can rack up 8 straws! So any education about this would go a long way. See more..
    
35. 4.5 Nui Beach (255 reviews)
    - favorite beach
    Spent More than 3 hours Beaches
    
    
    Really quiet and beautiful beach. Takes a little effort to get there but it's really close to Paradise I'd say. One little bar at the beach itself which is playing some music and one bar on the steep path down to the beach. Overall laid back feeling and great water condition as well. Just be cautious when going down the hill to the beach. Will be 100% worth it. See more..
    
36. 4.5 Diamond Cliff Beach (231 reviews)
    - Hidden gem of a beach bar with superb views
    Beaches
    
    
    What a hidden gem!! Took a motorbike out to discover this side of the island and came across this cool bar. Amazing views of the beach with laid back chilled music and great service. My new fave beach bar so far!! See more..
    
37. 4.5 Long Beach (229 reviews)
    - Stunning
    Spent 2-3 hours Beaches
    
    
    Beautiful beach! If you’re looking to getaway from the party scene/people especially and get some quiet time this beach is perfect. Lots of families and couples. We took a 100 baht per person by long tail boat from the Ton Sai pier. It was peaceful, with white sands, clear water and amazing views. See more..
    
38. 4.5 Khao Ngon Nak (178 reviews)
    - Spectacular view
    Spent More than 3 hours Lookouts
    
    
    This is definitely NOT a stroll in the park, it’s a challenging hike up a Rocky Mountain track in possibly tropical conditions depending on time of year. You will definitely need decent training shoes or better still hiking boots unlike some of the people I passed in flip flops!!! Take plenty of water (at least 2 Ltr),sun cream, insect repellent and possibly a sugar snack as you will definitely be sweating!!! All that said, after around 2 hours you should reach it’s peak you will definitely be rewarded with spectacular views. Unfortunately it’s the descent after that and in my opinion a tougher walk back down than up but a great adventure if like me you get bored of sitting around a pool or beach. Cost is 300 Bhat which seems to be normal for entering a National park. Please don’t attempt this if you are not fairly fit, you have been warned See more..
    
39. 4.5 Khao Phanom Bencha National Park (169 reviews)
    - Amazing nationl park
    National Parks
    
    
    The best National park with big waterfall that you can enter and swim with beautiful views.

The people who work there are very nice and put their heart into the park and the tourists(they speak very good english) also there is a small restaurant with very tasty and cheap thai food. We spend there half of our day and its was amazing! See more..
    
40. 4.5 Ko Jum (168 reviews)
    - Perfect Getway !!
    Islands
    
    
    If you want an authentic taste of Thai island life then Koh Jum, in the region of Krabi is the perfect place for you. It's a tropical bliss is what a friend of my told me who had been there , so this is where i was headed for my Christmas break away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Koh Jum is probably one of the few peaceful islands in Thailand where you can still be completely alone on the beach at times. Let's hope they keep it that way it is nice sometimes to be away from all that loud music party atmosphere it's certainly a great place to clear your inner soul. We stayed at the Rock View Terrace it was just perfect by the calm sea waters i highly recommend this cute resort. See more..
    
41. 4.5 Ko Lao La Ding (150 reviews)
    - Beautiful and crowded
    Spent 1-2 hours Beaches

    - Gorgeous Beach
    Beaches
    
    
    A friend and I had the chance to walk along this beach one afternoon. The sand is pale white and the water crystal clear. I really wish I could've spent more time here. There is a masseuse on the beach as well. Next time I come, I might stay at one of the bungalows on this beach as it looks to be the perfect place to vacation. See more..

    - Great Views
    Spent 1-2 hours Lighthouses
    
    
    I went to the National Park by scooter (first time on a scooter and the roads to the park were a bit challenging but doable). The path up the the lighthouse was short and not difficult. The view was lovely. There is a walking trail in the park and a stunning beach. Worth the trip See more..

    - To be clam
    Islands
    
    
    I am able to seek the island that is rather private than the others, this Koh Hong can give answer my topic. I can some clown fish in the water but i travel here in rainy season. There is some problem of the island that there are many woods bits or logs bits that float on the water for this season. See more..

48. 4.5 Thung Yee Pheng Mangrove Forest (61 reviews)
    - Kayaking in the mangrove
    Spent 1-2 hours Forests
    
    
    We suggest renting the kayak directly at the Thungyeepeng Natural Study and Eco Tourism Center. We went there because the price was the same as in the travel agencies around but they let you kayak as long as you want (or can). We arrived at 8h30 am and stayed for 2h30. It was enough for a trip of 8-10 km in the mangrove. It was absolutely gorgeous! We saw a lot of monkeys, some of them came in the kayak. We followed the long tail boats and found the green tunnel, but we were also able to reach smaller ones were the other boats couldn’t go. Our best experience in a mangrove forest! Note: Keep your gps with you, not to get lost in this maze. If you stay in the main channel, no risk at all. See more..
