Krabi trip 3 Days 2 Nights

I just would like to share traveling plan and some photos of my trip to Krabi.Enjoys!

I had booking flight from Bangkok to Krabi with low cost airline www.airasia.com round trip just about 100 usd (Depend on how early you are booking.More early more cheap).For hotel I booking Buri Tara Resort Krabi just a few minute walk to Nopparattara beach.

Day 1 :

Departure from Suwanabumi airport at 08.00 am. and arrive Krabi international airport around 09.20 am.

                                                             Krabi International Airport
 
Hotel include pickup service from Krbi airport to hotel and hotel to Krabi airport in room rate.
It take time about 30 minute from Krabi airport to Ao Nang.

                                                               Buri Tara Resort Krabi
First day activity I just rent a motocycle to traveling along the beach(rental rate is about 250 baht/24 hrs. you can ask hotel for this service).From the hotel we can ride
motocycle to Ao Nang beach and Nopparattara beach just a few minute.


                                                                           Ao Nang Beach
On Ao Nang beach front you can park the motocycle and walking to shopping some servinior or buy some 1 day trip package(You may buy pacakage for hotel but may a little expensive so I recommend come to Ao Nang and get some).I bought package to 4 island tour that include
- Pra nang bay

- Thale Waek (Separated Sea)
One of Thailand's unseen highlights, Thale Waek is situated along Ko Dam Khwan. As the tide recedes, the sea is gradually separated by the white sand and limestone beach that will appear to amazingly connect the two islands at low tide. The best time to visit Thale Waek is 5 days before and after the full moon from December to beginning of May.

- Por Da island
Situated south of Ao Nang, 8 kilometres offshore, Mu Ko Poda is fringed by clear waters, and offers white sandy beaches, as well as, pristine coral reefs. This is why it is a year-round attraction and an excellent place for fishing because it is not affected so much by the monsoon. Mu Ko Poda can be reached within 25 minutes by boat from Ao Nang. Many noteworthy islands like Ko Thap, Ko Mo, Ko Hua Khwan, and Ko Kai are situated nearby. A beautiful sandy beach, connecting these islands, is visible at low tide. 
 
4 island tour package price is about 30 usd/person.After get some package you can come back again to see nigh life at Ao Nang beach.It's good place to buy local handcraft and have some food , drink and also find internet cafe' to share your experience with friends or family.

Of course there have never been Vikings, but the cave has numerous cave paintings of vessels, resembling Viking longboats. The colored drawings are located on the eastern and southern walls of the cave. There are pictures of elephants and also of various boats: European, Arab and Chinese sailing ships, baroques, motorboats, and steamships. They were probably drawn by pirates, who paused in the cave on their travels from west to east, sheltering from the monsoon winds, transfering cargo, or making repairs.

The cave is revered by the local people. They come here to collect the swift's nests, used to make Bird's Nest Soup, a Chinese delicacy. The season for the nests is between February and April. A bids' nest company has the concession for the cave, and they must be asked if you want to visit the cave.
