Krabi Beaches

Railay Bay

This is a promontory divided into four sections: Railay East and West, Phra Nang Cave Bay (not to be confused with Ao Nang) and Tonsai.

If you plan to stay there, the accommodations, ranging from beach bungalows to the rather opulent Rayawadee Resort, are to be found on either Tonsai or Railay West.

Although the Railay area is not technically an island, it has an island feel. Railay is accessible only by boat so it has the appearance and feel of remoteness. This feel is reflected in the pace of life there as well as the friendly nature of the folk who live and work there.

Railay is a microcosm of Thailand, where everything is made to be fun and done with a smile and a courtesy, found in only a few places outside of this part of the world!
