Without doubt the best beach we have been to! White sand beach with beautiful clear water. We just could not get enough of it 😍
Tip:- So glad that we stayed in Railay! The early morning views when the beach is empty is truly divine. Would suggest anyone planning to visit to stay at Railay and experience the beach early morning. The boats from Ao nang start around 8 for Railay best to be at the beach before that. Railay has plenty of stay options and lots of interesting cafes around.

Best beach in the Ao Nang area…
The whole area around Railay is really nice…
Clear blue water and the mountain almost leaning over the beach.

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.

The best beach in Thailand and one on the best in the world. We have been returning to this beach dozen of times over the last thirty !!! Years and it hasn’t changed. The view of the rocks is unique the sand strip is wide and clean and the water clear and warm - simply perfect !

It was one of our stops on the island tour so we could watch the sunset. We are just amazed at how beautiful this place is. We didnt have much time to explore everything, but it's worth visiting especially the cave.

ได้ครับเพียงแต่แนะนำให้ไปเที่ยววัดถ่ำเสือก่อนเพราะต้องใช้กำลังเดินเที่ยวชมบริเวณสถานที่ และ มาพักผ่อน กับน้ำทะเล ที่ทริปท่านจองใว้ขอแนะนำว่าให้เหมาแบบรวมสองทริปราคาจะถูกลงครับ

Hi my krabi flight via kualalampur from kolkata where do i get thai visa on arival?

Depending on what airline you fly they might have the paper to fill in on the final flight. Kuala Lumpur - Krabi. That can speed up the time spent in immigration if you pre-fill them. Many times when you fly in to thailand from abroad they do have them onboard, Thai air and others.. otherwise its airport..
Have a nice trip!

Hello, where are the cliffs to jump from? Are there a variety of heights? Really only looks for a few meters high. Cheers!

There were climbers that were scaling specific cliffs over the water out from Railey beaches, they were getting to them by boat.

Is the long tail boat ride children friendly? We are a group travelling with kids aged 6months old upto 9 years old.

I would not have any problems bringing children on the long tail boats. They are very safety conscious and everyone has to sit “inside” the boats where the sides are covered. There is also life jackets easily accessible.

you can arrange for the tour boat to depart at 7.30am or 8am.
You might need to pay for the whole boat if there are no other passengers and you are in a hurry.
