Railay beach

Railay Beach - a magnificent, distinctive world, rich in viewing platforms, natural caves, lagoons, and tunnels. Here, you will not find any buses, cars, or bikes - only the serene glide of long-tail boats.

West Railay is the peninsular resort's bustling tourist center, renowned for its convenient boardwalk, eclectic shops, respectable restaurants, and luxury hotels. Its eastern neighbor, East Railay, stands out with its mangroves and the renowned Thai boxing school. It offers more affordable dining options, lively bars, and cozy bungalows. Phra Nang, a pristine stretch of sand in the south of Railay Bay, boasts all the “ingredients” of an idyllic beach: shallow waters, two picturesque islands within view, and a vibrant coral reef.

Adventurous spirits can indulge in diving, underwater photo shoots, kayaking, or the exhilarating challenge of rock climbing.

Optimal Time for a Visit

The best time to visit Krabi for a beach vacation is during the dry season, which runs from November to April. This period offers the ideal conditions for sunbathing, swimming, and enjoying the various outdoor activities that Krabi has to offer.

• November to February: This is the peak tourist season in Krabi due to the perfect weather conditions – warm days, clear skies, and minimal rainfall. It's the best time for those looking to enjoy the beaches and outdoor activities without the interruption of rain.
• March to April: These months are still within the dry season, but temperatures start to rise, making it hotter. This is a great time for those who prefer warmer weather and less crowded beaches, as the peak tourist season starts to wind down.

While the dry season is the most popular time to visit, it's also worth considering the shoulder months like May and October. During these months, there are fewer tourists, and hotel rates can be more affordable, though there's a higher chance of rain.
