Krabi Coastline Discovery



Discover the unique sea and landscape. Towering cliffs draped with creepers and lush vegetation that rise from the emerald sea. White-sand beaches, caves filled with dramatic stalactites and stalagmites. Get a true taste of fun and adventure in a local long-tail boat - an integral part of the Krabi seascape. Sand so white, sky so blue, the powerful tropical sun and aquamarine waters all combine to deliver an experience to remember forever. Discover places you only thought existed in your dreams. You will experience a world created by nature over millions of years. Relax in timeless, dreamlike surroundings. Visit the spectacular peninsular beaches of Rai Ley and Phra Nang, accessible only by boat. Snorkel or swim in the waters of Ao Nang Bay - home to some of the most breathtaking scenery in South East Asia. Itinerary: Early morning pickup from various hotels in Phuket. Enjoy a pleasant morning drive in our air-conditioned mini bus the length of Phuket Island. Over the Sarasin Bridge to the mainland of Southern Thailand and the town of Phang Nga. Coffee break at a coffee shop where the coffee is prepared and poured in the now mostly forgotten unique local Thai style. A short drive will take you to the Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Sua). Here amidst the floral gardens stands a huge statue of a Chinese goddess revered across South East Asia. Continue to Tha Pom Klong Son Nam - a canal well known for its crystal clear water. It's name translates into "two water canal", because during high tide seawater meets freshwater, resulting in a mixture of seawater and freshwater in the canal. Situated amidst mangrove forest and swamp forest, Tha Pom is home to an astonishing variety of creatures from the two kinds of forest areas. After lunch in a garden restaurant in the town of Krabi, a short drive will take you to Ao Nang (Nang Bay) where you climb into a local long-tailed boat and start the adventure of experiencing the Krabi coastline from the sea. The view is breathtaking; the sea and landscape unique. The sea journey will take you past sparkling, deserted beaches to one where you will land for swimming, sunbathing and snorkeling. The return boat ride will lead you back to shore by a different route so you can experience more breathtaking scenery. Van transfer back to Phuket.
