Railay Beach

Beach Krabi, Krabi, Thailand

What to expect

Railay Beach, also known as Rai Leh, is a small peninsula in Krabi, Thailand. It is accessible only by boat due to high limestone cliffs cutting off mainland access. The area is popular for its beautiful beaches, quiet relaxing atmosphere, and rock climbing opportunities. The four main areas of Railay consist of Phra Nang, West Railay, East Railay, and Ton Sai. Each area has its own unique character, with West Railay being the primary destination for beach-goers and Ton Sai catering to climbers and backpackers. The peninsula has a range of accommodation options, from bungalows and medium-priced resorts to luxury resorts. Visitors can enjoy various activities, including swimming, rock climbing, and hiking, as well as taking day trips to nearby islands such as Phi Phi
