Ao Nang Beach

Though Krabi Town is the provincial capital of Krabi, it is the Ao Nang Beach in Krabi, which is the hub of tourism here. Ao Nang Beach, Krabi has the highest concentration of hotels, resorts, restaurants and shopping, as well as good transport infrastructure inland and offshore, making it an ideal holiday destination for families and couples alike.

The laid-back charm of the beach and its unspoiled landscapes make it a favorite of travelers from around the world. The beach itself is a stretch of pristine beauty with golden palm fringed beaches, dominated by the large cliffs at its southern tip. The warm crystal clear waters make it an excellent place for swimming and snorkeling, or just relaxing in a beach café.

The strategic location of Ao Nang beach makes it a perfect jumping off point for day trips to the nearby islands and inland, and then coming back in the evenings to eat, shop and enjoy a night out.

After the sunset, Ao Nang Beach transforms from a tranquil sanctum to a lively nightspot revealing a new facet to the visitors. The beachfront gets electrified with lively people as they return from the islands and set off, freshly showered and dressed up for a night out. Here the visitors can dine at a large choice of restaurants, particularly for western food, or do some shopping for souvenirs and gifts. Massage shops, spas and beauty parlors also remain open until late, so that you can pamper yourself with rejuvenating treatments after your hard day of island hopping.
