Well to the west of Hat Noppharat Tara, beyond Laem Hang Nak Peninsula, Hat Klong Muang is a more isolated beach facing west towards Ko Phi Phi. Here, the beach is well-shaded by casuarinas and coconut palms, and offshore islands add a fascinating profile to the horizon.
Hat Klong Muang is gradually moving up-market from a backpacker destination to a cove with a cluster of higher-end resorts. It’s the ideal destination if you love the water, and is gaining an international reputation for great scuba-diving and snorkeling, as well as sea-kayaking to the offshore islands and beyond.
These are just some of the areas off the beaten track of Krabi’s picturesque Andaman coast that offer unforgettable moments for eco-travelers. By going a little out of your way, you will see a green side of Krabi that few visitors get to experience.
