Krabi, a province on southern Thailands Andaman

coast, is an almost otherworldly region of labyrinthine

archipelagos, where islands seem to erupt vertically outof the sea and secluded beaches are only accessible

by colorfully adorned long tail boats. Krabis myriad of

bays and coves have sheltered pirates, merchants, and

sea gypsies for thousands of years and archaeological

evidence indicates that Krabi was originally inhabited

as early as 25,000 - 35,000 years ago!

With attractions including hot springs, a wildlife

sanctuary, sea caves, ourishing coral reefs and exotic

marine life, limestone clis that draw rock climbing

enthusiasts from around the world, and national parks

that include the island paradises of Koh Phi Phi and

Koh Lanta, one could easily spend weeks in Krabi and

leave yearning for more. If that wasnt enough, Krabi

features some of the most photogenic sunsets in

Thailand, often accompanied by spectacular displays

of cloud to cloud lightning, that are best enjoyed from

a beachside bar or restaurant. Meanwhile, with all

the tourists spread out among various beaches and

islands, life goes on in Krabi Town, the somewhat

sleepy provincial capital. Surprisingly few tourists

spend time in the charming riverside town, whose hilly

streets feature a number of cozy cafes and inexpensiveand authentic Thai cuisine is served at an outdoor,

riverside evening market.

Town to most visitors is Ao Nang, a seaside strip of

guesthouses, hotels, bars, restaurants, and souvenir

shops that continues to grow as tourist arrivals
