An erroneous train of thought that most tourists have about traveling to Thailand and exploring it for a week or two is that they’ve seen all they need to see. Given the sprawling nature and hidden jewels all over the country, it’s safe to say this mindset is not entirely true, especially if one hasn’t been to Krabi yet.
What makes Krabi so special?
Often seen by experienced tourists and locals alike as a hidden paradise, Krabi is a tropical treasure trove situated on the west coast of Southern Thailand. Packed with picturesque landscapes and unhampered experiences, tourists aplenty come to this part of Southeast Asia searching for the most astounding natural sights, sounds, and sensations, and none of them leave disappointed.
Despite its proximity to famous tourist destinations like Phang Nga and Phuket Island, Krabi often receives less footfall than its tourist-dense neighbors. However, this is also what makes the province incredibly attractive—it yields an opportunity for visitors to enjoy nature without being disturbed!
