is quite a popular island for both Thai and foreign travelers. It is the location of Than Bok Khorani National Park Ranger Unit. There are two sandy beaches in the front and the back. The former is the main port, so it is not very suitable for a swim; shereas the latter is a nice diving spot around 10-30 feet deep.
The amazing sandy beach surrounded by toweing hills of Koh Hong is indeed one of the highlights of Krabi attractions.
The front beach in the south of the island is a place where visitors often come to lie down on the beach and canoe all along to the hall in the north.
