More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A longtail boat slips away from Nopparat Thara as the sun begins its slow descent; salt air pushes at your cheeks and limestone towers stand like slow-moving islands in the light. The day unfolds across shallow sandbanks and coral gardens: morning snorkeling over fringing reefs, a lazy lunch on Poda’s white sand, and the familiar karst cliffs of Railay sliding by as the skipper eases toward Phra Nang for sunset and a beachside BBQ.
