Location & what to see
Krabi Town is the provincial capital on the Andaman coast of southern Thailand, a low-rise town of shophouses, markets and piers on the Krabi River estuary. italay is on Khongkha Road, so the town's shops, street food and night markets are close at hand. Travellers who want the energy of a working town, with the beaches and islands reachable by boat, will find the setting practical for both town life and day trips.
The Krabi Walking Street is 200 m away, and the City Night Market and the Krabi Weekend Night Market are close by for evening food and shopping. Khong Kha Pier, a ferry pier, is 250 m away, and Wat Kaew Korawaram, a pagoda, is within half a kilometre. Railay, a beach with limestone cliffs that is reached only by boat, is 10.5 km away, and Tiger Cave Temple, whose long staircase climbs a hillside, is 6.8 km away.
A good day combines Tiger Cave Temple with a boat trip to Poda Island or Tup Island, both reached by boat from Krabi. Railay's limestone cliffs and Phra Nang Cave make a full day on their own, and in the evening the night markets make a fitting end to the day.
