Krabi was a stopover. There are few attractions in Krabi although if you include day tours of Phi Phi and Hong Island you can actually plan a three day itinerary. We were here for just a night and so we decided to make the most of it without planning anything far.

We landed at Phuket Airport and a hotel cab brought us to Krabi in two hours. By lunch time we had checked in and refreshed ourselves. We decided to walk to the nearby Ao Nang Beach. It was sparsely crowded and had a McDonalds where we lunched. After couple of dips in the lukewarm water we decided to go to famous Railey Beach.

Railey Beach is not accessible through road. We had to go to Ao Nam Mao Pier to take a speedboat. The speedboat experience proved to be the highlight of the day as the boat driver was in a somewhat of a hurry. He literally zoomed us through the waves. We deboarded at the back of Railey Beach and walked to the opposite side. There was a quaint town by the beach and a decent crowd.

We bought some beer and walked to one corner of the beach where the Bat Cave had opened up in low tide. Later we moved around and settled on sand for a beautiful sunset. We had planned dinner at Ao Nang Beach only at an Indian Restaurant we had earlier noticed. The boat ride back to Ao Nam Mao was less spectacular more so because it was already dark.

After a quick but filling dinner we settled quickly in our respective beds after what seemed like a long day. Next day we had to take an early morning ferry to Koh Samui which was our prime destination of this trip.
