Ao Nang is a bay town on the Andaman coast of Krabi province, built around a long beach and a pier where longtail boats leave for the islands and the limestone cliffs of the Railay peninsula. ThePhuView at Aonang is set in this town, back from the beach itself.

Ao Nang Beach is 2.1 km away, and Railay Beach, reached by longtail boat, is 3.2 km away. Phra Nang Cave, a shrine cave on the Railay side, is reached by the same boats, while Poda Island and Tup Island are small islands with beaches that are also reached by boat from the pier. Tiger Cave Temple, a hillside Buddhist temple with a long staircase up to a viewpoint, is 13.2 km away, and Krabi International Airport is 17 km away.

A good day could start on Ao Nang Beach, continue by longtail boat to Railay or Poda Island, and come back to the pier by the same boat. The Hong Islands, a cluster of limestone islands with a lagoon, are 40.2 km away and make a longer day out by boat, for those who want to see more of the coast. In the evening, the Ao-Nang Landmark Night Market is another place to walk around in the town.
