A central landmark in Krabi Town. Fashion and fast food are inside, while a weekend night market is just outside. It's nothing fancy, but the grocery store and pharmacy might have what you need.

The longtail boat jumping off point for Railay Beach, and a quieter beach in its own right. Near the Gastropod Fossil / Shell Cemetery.

Another quiet beach close by. You won't see many people or restaurants by - much of the land is still owned by the Thai government, which has intentionally slowed development in this area.

Called the 'last untouched beach' by some, Koh Phangan is yet another beach opportunity to reach from your Krabi / Ao Nang base.

The 1,237 steps up (and down) might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's a gorgeous view from the top. Watch for the monkeys along the first 200 steps or so - no actual tigers are around, though.

Accessible by longtail boat only - start from Ao Nang (15 min.) or Krabi Town (30 min.). 'Rye-lay' beach puts a scenic exclamation point on any trip to Thailand. Worth a day trip in and of itself.

Still haven't had enough beaches? Long, clean, and considered a hideaway, there's very little development nearby. You'll need some wheels of your own to get here.

A nice blend of traditional and contemporary art by local artists. Worthwhile if it's raining or if you need a break from the heat.

Between the nightly Night Market and the nearby Thara Park, there's plenty of room to stretch out here. The market has plenty of food, and is cooler thanks to the breeze.

Authentic Indian food within walking distance of the beach. One of my wife's favorites.

Plenty of options beyond steak. Euro-centric and fancier than average, though also a little pricier. Jurgen occasionally pops out to converse, and the place is easy to find.

Drinks & Nightlife
For some folks, it's just not a trip until you've been to Irish bar. Here ya go =) Note Ao Nang has plenty more bars not listed here or on Google Maps - stick to the main roads and you'll see dozens.
