Conquer the 1,260 steps up Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea) in Krabi. In this travel guide we break down the climb's difficulty, what to wear for the summit, and exactly why those panoramic Krabi views are worth the sweat.

Experience the best snorkeling from Koh Lanta at Koh Haa’s crystal lagoons and the powdery white sand beaches of Koh Rok. This guide covers how to book speedboats from Koh Lanta, including updated prices and tips for seeing the islands' vibrant coral reefs.

Krabi is, undoubtedly, one of the best beach and island hubs in Thailand: known for its towering limestone karsts, powdery white sands, winding mangrove forests, and laidback adventurous spirit. This province in Southern Thailand covers a massive area, almost 5,000 km² to be exact, giving travelers access to beautiful destinations such as Railay, Koh Phi Phi, Koh Lanta, Hong Islands, and endless little corners of paradise.

Koh Lanta is a wonderfully laidback island in the Andaman Sea, situated just south of Krabi and east of Koh Phi Phi. Instead of the dramatic limestone karsts found on some of the neighbouring islands, here you’ll encounter a much more expansive landscape: wide open beaches, twisting mangroves, rolling hills draped in jungle, quiet fishing villages, and a rugged south where the wild edges of Mu Ko Lanta National Park begin.

People who say you should never visit touristy destinations have probably never been to Koh Phi Phi. It’s one of our favorite islands in Thailand, not because it’s untouched and off-the-beaten-track, but because of its intoxicating atmosphere. The twin-island archipelago combines spectacular natural beauty, loads of activities, and buzzing nightlife into one small but punchy package.
