About Krabi and Krabi province
Krabi province on Thailand's Andaman coast is famous for limestone cliffs, clear water, and easy access to islands such as Phi Phi, Hong Island, and local four-island loops. Krabi province sits within this network of beaches, piers, and national park zones, making it practical for both short holidays and week-long stays. Infrastructure has improved steadily — ATMs, mini-marts, clinics, and tour counters are common — yet the region still feels more relaxed than busier beach hubs.
Check In Krabi publishes guides, hotel lists, restaurant picks, and public place notes to help visitors compare options before they book. Always cross-check ferry times, park fees, and national holiday crowds because conditions change by season. Respect marine parks: avoid single-use plastic on boats, do not stand on coral, and follow staff instructions during snorkeling stops.

I really liked the short walk from the entrance up to the boats that take you to the cave. The wooden trail is nice and the landscape is quite peculiar. I also loved the cave and the tour we did in a small boat through the mangroves.
09/09/2024 10:08It was by accident that we discovered this place, I really don't understand why no one is mentioning it in the trips and places to go in krabi. It was amazing and we ended our time there. I wish I could stay more.
28/02/2026 04:52This is an easy stroll along a man-made walkway in Krabi Town. This is free to enter at the time I went (Jan 2026).
Unless you are an environmental scientist or like bird watching, there isnt much to see here.
The only interesting trip for me personally is to get the tailboat at the Pier at the end of the walkway. The boat will take you to visit the Khao Khanab Nam cave, have a mangrove tour or back to Krabi town. They dont speak English so make sure you agreed on the price before jumpin on. I paid 200 baht to visit the cave (30min) and get dropped off at Krabi Town.
Nice free short walk in the mangrove forest. Has interesting information on the trees and bird wildlife.
We only spotted 3 monkeys in the trees and some crabs in the mud.
Was offered a boat trip to the cave and into the mangrove forest at the end of the walk way but didn’t take it so can’t comment on price or tour.
Some railings broken so could do with some maintenance. View from the watchtower was nice.
Lovely quite spectacular mangroves forest trail with a watchtower that opens truly magnificent views around
