When it comes to adventurers in search of thrill and excitement, many of them feel the almost ineffable pull of Krabi, drawing them into its grasp. Upon arrival, you will find yourself spoilt for choice in terms of the activities available, and the only limit will be how much time & energy you have.
As a true home for adrenaline junkies, Krabi invites the best and bravest amongst travellers to try their hand at all it has to offer. A favourite pass time for many travellers is the stunning limestone cliffs that are spread all around the landscape of Krabi that are just waiting to be scaled.
If you feel a bit disheartened as a first-timer, rest assured that there are plenty of classes that will help teach you to get your footing.
Some of the best places to start off with climbing are Railay Beach and Tham Phra Nang. While it is not a must, being in a reasonably good physical condition will ensure that you are able to enjoy this experience. Be sure to inform the trainers regarding any pre-existing health conditions as well as injuries you may have!
A favourite pastime of many people who pass through Krabi is enjoying the wonders of the aquatic life that lie just beneath the surface of the ocean.
This is generally considered the favourite pastime for most people who visit Krabi mainly due to the ease with which even a complete novice can learn the ropes and explore the wonders of the underwater world that surrounds them.
Some of the more popular diving sites are Koh Rok Nok, Bamboo Island and the Phi Phi Islands. If you are interested the cost for an excursion comes roughly to USD 90.
In the long list of outdoor excursions, waterfall abseiling is a thrilling experience like no other. The sensation of rappelling yourself down a waterfall is truly exhilarating and your heart is sure to drop at the sight of the empty space beneath you.
However, if you are in Ao Nang, things to do typically means going abseiling. If you are staying in accommodation like Avani Ao Nang Cliff Krabi Resort the staff will definitely be able to point you in the right direction with regards to a reputable tour operator.
If you are looking for an activity that lets gravity do all the work, then you need to try ziplining. This requires no training and just a pinch of courage to enjoy. With zip lines set up in the forest, you can zoom past the trees and experience the thrill of a breakneck speed.
With the abundance of natural beauty that Krabi has to offer, it is no surprise that there are a plethora of trails that avid hikers can explore. This journey will likely transport you through breath-taking vistas and even the wildlife that calls the forests home. So simply settle into your own pace and enjoy the view!
