Common description
At the very border with Malaysia, on the shores of the Andaman Sea of the Indian Ocean, lies Krabi - the most beautiful province of Southern Thailand - "the country of 1000 islands" and "the pearl of Thailand" - that's what the Thais themselves call it with love. It is located 176 km south of Phuket and 800 km from Bangkok. This coast and the islands of the province are of interest to tourists who like corners of nature still untouched by mass tourism. The airport, recently built in Krabi, has made it possible for travelers from all over the world to enjoy the amazing gifts of nature in this part of Thailand.
Crystal clear waters and numerous exotic islands are ideal for snorkeling and scuba diving. The indescribable beauty of the stalactite caves and cliffs of the Railay coast has become a recognized Mecca of rock climbers around the world. Four national parks, mangrove forests and hot springs will leave you with a lasting impression. Krabi is home to one of three 75-million-year-old shell deposits discovered on Earth.
It was in the province of Krabi that many famous Hollywood films were filmed: "In Search of Adventure" (Jean-Claude Van Damme), "Tomorrow Never Dies" from the James Bond series (with Pierce Brosnan and Michelle Yeoh), "The Beach" (Leonardo DiCaprio) ... Indeed, it is difficult to imagine a more magnificent sight than the islands and beaches of this particular part of Thailand! By visiting Krabi province, you can visit the filming locations and imagine yourself as the heroes of these famous blockbusters.
Krabi is the pristine beauty of nature, the snow-white coral beaches of the islands and the golden beaches of the coast, evergreen chalk cliffs rising directly from the water, the colorful magnificent world of coral reefs. Thickets of tall coconut palms reaching the surf, an amazing fresh ocean breeze filled with the aromas of the sea and blooming bougainvilleas, millions of colorful sea fish swimming up to the very shore, magnificent pictures of a tropical sunset ...!!!! Krabi is Phuket as it was 20 years ago! Krabi is also the youngest center of the tourism industry in the Kingdom of Thailand! Over the past 2-3 years, the coast of Krabi and the most famous islands (Phi Phi, Lanta, Turatao, Similan, Lin) have been covered with a network of modern international hotels that perfectly combine a high level of modern comfort and traditional Thai exoticism. What is especially important, the vast majority of hotels have Scandinavian or German management, therefore, a high level of service!
