Krabi: Southern Thailand's alluring natural beauty

The social center of the province is Ao Nang with its long beaches, various resorts and collections of bungalows, bars and restaurants. Most of the boat tours depart from the beach here or at the pier in Krabi Town.

With the sea at hand, seafood is abundant on menus and prices are competitive. Tourists walk the main street for souvenirs and inexpensive clothing or eat pad thai or roti, the sweet Thai pancake, from food carts. In the evening, crowds gather at the beach to watch the sun set over the bay.
