Spend a full day climbing Railay’s legendary limestone cliffs with certified instructors. This course combines top-rope routes, bouldering and rappelling with beach time and a longtail boat transfer to the peninsula.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A longtail boat cuts a bright ribbon across the Andaman as you approach Railay; towering limestone cliffs rise sharply from the water, their faces threaded with pockets and stalactites that beg to be climbed. By midmorning the reef scent and sun-warmed rock set the day’s tempo: concentration, measured effort, and the lucky pauses to look out over the sea.

Protect your skin
