6. Explore Phi Phi Island


One of the top destination in Krabi is Archipelogo which is known as Phi Phi Island. Some people feel like visiting island for a day from Ao Nang, but few also feel like staying on the largest island of Koh Phi Phi Don.





7. Thung Teao Forest Park


A must visit day trip in Krabi is Thung Teao Forest Natural Park. You can see a nature reserve walk to stunning Emerald Pool. Then you can keep a eye out for wildlife along the way. You can take a dip in the water and enjoy. You can also enjoy the Hot Springs.





8. Soak In Hot Springs


Best and most relaxing things to do in Krabi is to soak yourself in natural Hot Springs. The hot water comes from the thermal streams that fill the natural stone Jacuzzi's, making perfect place to relax.


It is so popular that they even diverted some of the water to few man-made pools and added in changing facilities. Hot Springs are called Nantok Ron Khlong Thom and are about 70Kms outside of Krabi Town.


9. Hike From Railay To Tonsai


Technically Railay and Tonsai aren't Island, but they surely feels like one. There is no other way of travelling to those beached rather than taking a ongtail boat over from Ao Nang. It almost takes 10-15 minutes, but it feels apart from the super developed resort town.


Tonsai is favorite among backpackers and rock climber and Railay is more attractive towards the family vacationer. If you feel like staying , you can take a short hike from one to the other. You can always carry your towel and bathing suit and can chill on the beach for a while and then you can take the short and cheap water boat and can go back to the other side.
