Day 1 – Arrive into Ao Nang
When you arrive at your tropical hotel with swimming pool, you will first be blown away by the beautiful backdrop and immediately start to unwind. You’ll check into one of the attractive bungalows that are surrounded by limestone rocks and peaceful palm garden. There’s nothing planned for your first evening except to relax, take everything in and get a well-deserved good night’s sleep.
Days 2-3 – Free time and kayaking excursion
After a restful night and a hearty breakfast, the next day is free for you to do as you wish. If you want to do nothing at all, why not simply head to Ao Nang beach and whilst the kids build their sandcastles, you can dig your feet into the warm white sand and read your book with a view of the neighbouring islands to make your time here pure bliss. There are also plenty of cosy restaurants serving a variety of cuisines, so there is something for everyone and the whole family will be happy able to tuck in!
In the morning of day three it’s time for you to jump into your kayak and paddle out to the hidden mangroves surrounding Ao Nang. You’ll set off from the beach of Ao Thalane and journey along the rugged coastline into the green mangroves where you will discover limestone caves and seek out the cheeky monkeys that’ll be watching you from the treetops. All that paddling will be sure to build up your appetite, so we’ll arrange fresh fruits and juice for you before you return to Ao Nang just in time for lunch. The rest of the day is then free time for you to either relax by the pool or at the beach.
Day 4 – Departure from Ao Nang
Today it’s time for you to leave the golden shores and limestone cliffs behind as you pack your bags and head onto your next destination. If you’d like to spend an extra day or two relaxing on the beach, just let your travel specialist know!
Accommodation
For this bite-sized trip we offer the following options
Ao Nang - In Style accommodation
If you’re looking for a touch more luxury, then we can arrange for you to stay at a beautiful resort located on Tup Kaek Beach, surrounded by lush gardens and dramatic limestone cliffs. Situated about a 20-minute drive from Ao Nang’s centre, it’s a peaceful retreat where you can enjoy the relaxed local atmosphere, but still have easy access to the town. There are two outdoor pools to enjoy, including children’s pools, and within a few steps, you can enjoy the soft sands at the beach. On the second day, we’ll arrange kayaking through the mangrove forests for you.
Relaxing at Railay Bay
Railay Bay has an island feel, surrounded by limestone cliffs, yet is easily accessible from Krabi. You can arrange a longtail boat to Railay Bay yourself, departing from Ao Nang. The crossing takes about ten minutes. Here you’ll find a crescent-shaped bay with a pristine white beach, charming resorts, and restaurants. The best time to visit is from November through April. You’ll stay in a comfortable resort with a swimming pool, by the sea. You’ll sleep in a spacious bungalow or room, depending on availability. From the restaurant, you’ll have views of the turquoise sea, the white beach, and the surrounding limestone cliffs.
