Hop a traditional long-tail from Ao Nang to seven karst-fringed isles for snorkeling, a beach BBQ and — on calm, moonless nights — fleeting bioluminescent plankton. This seven-hour shared tour mixes easy swims, sandbar strolls and classic sunset views of Krabi's limestone coastline.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The long-tail's engine thumps as the coastline of Ao Nang falls away and a line of limestone silhouettes rises from the Andaman — sharp pinnacles, washed white beaches and narrow sandbars that briefly connect islands at low tide. You move between Tup and Mor islands where the sea parts into shallow pools, then past Chicken Island's famous beak-shaped rock to Poda's broad white sand where swimmers slide into warm, clear water.
