Ao Nang Beach
Best time to visit
Late afternoon into sunset gives cooler temperatures and dramatic light for photos; early mornings are quieter and best for catching the first longtail boats to Railay and nearby islands.
Budget tips
No entry fee for the beach; expect shared longtail trips to nearby spots from about 200–400 THB per person, so join group boats or book at the local pier to save money.

About
Fakta singkat: Cliffs of honey-colored limestone and longtail boats against turquoise shallows make the shoreline feel like a living postcard, perfect for dramatic sunset shots. Half-day boat trips to nearby karst islets often put snorkelers among schools of brightly colored fish and, on quieter days, sometimes fewer than ten other visitors, so you can still find secluded bays.
Sorotan: When the longtail boats start shuttling from the shoreline every 20 minutes for about 100 to 150 baht a ride, they thread between sheer limestone karsts that shoot up roughly 100 to 150 meters out of the emerald water. At dusk vendors wheel out charcoal grills along the promenade, grilling squid for about 60 baht a plate while the air fills with smoky-sweet aroma and locals nod to one another as if the evening has been officially announced.
Insider tips
- Wear water shoes or sturdy sandals, the shoreline can get rocky near the ends and when tide is low.
- Shoot sunset from the western pier area for longtail boat silhouettes against limestone karsts.
- Skip the pricier beachfront restaurants and eat one street back for fresher, cheaper seafood stalls.
- Catch the earliest shared longtail around 7:00–8:00 AM to avoid crowds at Railay and Phi Phi.
