The Islands are open!

As of July 1st 2020, Poda Island, Chicken Island and the Hong Islands are open again. Tours are running on some days as and when they have enough customers. We would recommend a private longtail trip which we can organize for you at very reasonable price.
We are planning a trip in the next few days, excited to see what they look like after being closed for so long, it should be even more beautiful than ever :)

𝗪𝗮𝘁 𝗕𝗮𝗻 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗴
About an hour drive North of Krabi is Wat Ban Thong. The level of detail on the ornate decoration inside the Temple is truly amazing. Around the main building is a roofed corridor that goes round the entire building and is lined with hundreds of Monk statues.

It makes a really nice trip out that is not too difficult so an ideal place to visit for people with limited mobility.

Entrance to the main building is 50thb for foreigners.

Maya Bay closed until 1st November 2018
The National Parks have announced that the closure of Maya Bay, that had been set to reopen on 1st October, has been extended for one month. The extension is to give the local eco system a bit of extra time to recover.

Krabi Street Art

Great mural in memory of the late King just being finished in Krabi Town. A really beautiful piece of work. Great to see something that is going to last a long time.

Rainy Season - The Silver Lining

Ok, it rains a bit... but at least there is a great variety of fresh fruit at cheap prices! Fill the fruit bowl for half the price.

Sunset Kayak and BBQ

We sent some of our visiting family along on the sunset kayak BBQ trip yesterday. Although it was a bit low tide, they still had a great time meandering through the cool alleyways in the mangrove forest. The BBQ after was at a nearby restaurant and was very generous with everyone getting a whole fish. prawns, sweetcorn, chicken and potato.

Kayaking in the late afternoon just as the sun is going down is a great option, its really beautiful and a whole different selection of mangrove residents are just coming out for the evening. You'll see birds, lizards, maybe some monkeys and plenty of other wildlife.

Group size is usually small on this trip, between 4 and 10 people, so it really feels like you have the whole area to yourself.

Comes highly recommended as a way of seeing the mangroves at a time when there are no other groups around and you get to feel completely immersed in nature.

Railay Beach

Took a trip to Railay Beach, the boat trip was great, just a few people in the boat and just ashort ten minutes journey. Railay West Beach is great, not too crowded, nice and clean and quiet.

Walked around to Phranang Beach but a bit more crowded so just relaxed at Railay West.

On the way back, got caught in the rain, amazing how quickly it changes from bright blue skies to torrential rain. Luckily just a short trip back.

Railay really has that Island feel to it, no cars, small paths and great beaches, water is not as clear as out at the Islands but great that its only a few minutes away.

Tiger Cave Temple

A cloudy day, but perfect at the top with the mountains poking through the clouds. Well worth the effort.

Huey Tho Waterfall at Phanom Bencha National Park

We got there at the perfect time, just after a big rain storm. We had the place to ourselves and there was lots of water! Perfect place for a picnic and to enjoy a splash in the refreshing, clean mountain water.

The park is beautifully kept, no litter, grass cut, even leaves swept off the paths. The walk to the waterfall is about 15 minutes. The last bit is a bit of a scramble over the rocks, but quite easy. The waterfall has three levels with steps up the side to the second level, and then a bit of a climb up to the top level. But even at the bottom, there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the fantastic rain forest.

The entry fee is 100thb for adults, and definitely worth it.

Phanom Bencha National Park is about 30-40 minutes drive from Aonang.

Great for kids with perfect pools for splashing about in.

All Boat trips from Aonang Cancelled on 22nd February

We have just been informed that all boat trips from Aonang are being cancelled by all operators on the 22nd February for one day. This affects all trips to the Phi Phi Islands, 4 Islands and the Hong Islands. We have heard that all ferries to Phi Phi, Koh Lanta and Phuket from Aonang are also cancelled.

The action is in relation to the dispute between the boat operators and the National Park Authority over the National Park fees which the operators are saying are too high and are affecting their business.

Anyone who has booked a trip with us will be refunded in full or can contact us to change to a different day.

Tup Kaek Nature Trail - Just The Best View

Had heard that they were upgrading... the trail so thought we would check it out. The National Park staff have just widened the lower part of the walk thankfully and still has the tough sections of tree roots to clamber up. (Whats a Nature trail if you don't have to clamber a bit?)

The view at the top is just as stunning as ever, today was overcast and rained a bit on the way down, but you can never get bored of that view!

Was busy today being a Thai National Holiday but that just meant 15 people or so at the top so, certainly not crowded.

Its a bit of a struggle to get up there, but well worth it.
