We chose not to take a boat ride because boat travel can be unpredictable. The boat&#8217;s comfort and the ocean&#8217;s swell are impossible to predict before arriving. The sun set while we drove. We drove through the kind of karst country I always imagined I&#8217;d see in Southeast Asia. We passed majestic limestone mountains and pinnacles, I could not look away from the view the whole time. After we got to the bus station, we waited for another 20 minutes for a Grab to drive us another 30 minutes to our hotel. We arrived at the hotel, checked in, and had only been there around 5 minutes when Brando arrived. He flew in from Cambodia and had just arrived from the Krabi airport.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff61a7f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ff61a7f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"665\" src=\"https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay1-1024x665.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-11579\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay1-1024x665.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay1-300x195.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay1-768x499.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay1-1536x998.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay1-2048x1330.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay1-18x12.jpeg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-722931d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"722931d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our hotel was located very close to <a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/DAoYVY9uu3a9fsoL8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ao Nang Beach<\/a>.

The sun occasionally peeked out from behind grey clouds, but we mostly had cloudy skies. We considered a cool and easy rock climbing mission but ended up not doing it. That&#8217;s mainly because I was having a hard time remembering how to belay people from the top of the climb and then belay them down a rappel. It&#8217;s been a while, and I am out of practice. I&#8217;ve only done basic, single-pitch sport climbing for a while. I do wish we had done it, though. If I get the chance to return, I&#8217;ll be ready! You can climb to a cave and then hike through it to get to Phra Nang Beach on the other side.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b168ee4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-gallery\" data-id=\"b168ee4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-11557 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-large'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"b168ee4\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Railay2\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTE1NzcsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93ZXN0aW5kaWVzdHJhdmVsLmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNVwvMDNcL1JhaWxheTItMS1zY2FsZWQuanBlZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImIxNjhlZTQifQ%3D%3D\" href='https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-scaled.jpeg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"665\" src=\"https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-1024x665.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-1024x665.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-300x195.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-768x499.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-1536x998.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-2048x1330.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Railay2-1-18x12.jpeg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"b168ee4\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"railay3\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTE1NzgsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93ZXN0aW5kaWVzdHJhdmVsLmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNVwvMDNcL3JhaWxheTMtMS1zY2FsZWQuanBlZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImIxNjhlZTQifQ%3D%3D\" href='https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-scaled.jpeg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"665\" src=\"https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-1024x665.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-1024x665.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-300x195.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-768x499.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-1536x998.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-2048x1330.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/railay3-1-18x12.jpeg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6260d08 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6260d08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Because we visited during the low season (rainy season), the beach was mostly empty.

It is a short but steep hike leading to a viewpoint of the Andaman Sea and the surrounding limestone islands. A series of staircases and pathways take visitors to the top of the rock for a beautiful view. The hike takes about 20 minutes and is best done in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat.<\/p><p>After chilling in the shallows for a while, we got the call to return to the boat. Before returning to town, the captain sailed to the other side of the island to enter the lagoon. The water is a unique green color and very shallow. We all stayed in the boat, the ship did a loop, exited the lagoon, and set out to return to town.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element

steak dinner and found a <a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/nLgeHYcud1bJ7spW7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">steakhouse<\/a> on Google Maps. We had to walk about 15 minutes from our hotel, and the restaurant is a little off the beaten path, but it&#8217;s well worth the short walk.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-size: 1rem;\">We loved everything. If you&#8217;re visiting Krabi and considering splurging on a nice meal, I highly recommend Carnivore Steak &amp; Grill.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It costs around $25.00 USD\/pax for a big meat platter to share, with each of us ordering multiple smoothies. It was amazing! The meat was delicious, and the watermelon smoothie blew my mind. Like summer in a glass. It reminded me of a summer I spent in North Carolina.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50

I have lived in Caguas, PR with my wife Indi since December of 2021 when we moved here for her PA program. More specifically, we live in a small, lovely home perched on the side of a mountain that affords us a beautiful view we never tire of. The small road off the highway to get to our house has eroded to an alarming extent, and will eventually collapse, but to live in such a place is well worth the risk. By day, lush, green mountains are visible extending from a small valley. A river cuts a path between the mountains; a short ride on my moped can take me to a spot in the river where a 6 ft waterfall flows into a round pool where green herons fish and locals cool off. By night, a giant white cross on the hill just below us lights up, on Wednesday\u2019s the sound of the church\u2019s hymns makes its way to our porch. The night comes alive with the sound of frogs and insects and the occasional Puerto Rican screech owl. House geckos crawl around the house\u2019s exterior to hunt bugs drawn by the light. I feel lucky every day to live here and do my best to never take it for granted. We love exploring the island and since moving here, have done and seen a lot. My google maps is a messy mix of pins, many are pins of where I want to visit, and dozens more are favorite spots I have saved, from beaches, to hikes, to restaurants, to cultural sites, and more. Puerto Rico is a big island and there is so much to do. We have played the part of tour guide for friends and family on numerous occasions. I like to plan everything, which means a detailed itinerary crafted for every visit.

I have lived in Caguas, PR with my wife Indi since December of 2021 when we moved here for her PA program. More specifically, we live in a small, lovely home perched on the side of a mountain that affords us a beautiful view we never tire of. The small road off the highway to get to our house has eroded to an alarming extent, and will eventually collapse, but to live in such a place is well worth the risk. By day, lush, green mountains are visible extending from a small valley. A river cuts a path between the mountains; a short ride on my moped can take me to a spot in the river where a 6 ft waterfall flows into a round pool where green herons fish and locals cool off. By night, a giant white cross on the hill just below us lights up, on Wednesday\u2019s the sound of the church\u2019s hymns makes its way to our porch. The night comes alive with the sound of frogs and insects and the occasional Puerto Rican screech owl. House geckos crawl around the house\u2019s exterior to hunt bugs drawn by the light. I feel lucky every day to live here and do my best to never take it for granted. We love exploring the island and since moving here, have done and seen a lot. My google maps is a messy mix of pins, many are pins of where I want to visit, and dozens more are favorite spots I have saved, from beaches, to hikes, to restaurants, to cultural sites, and more. Puerto Rico is a big island and there is so much to do. We have played the part of tour guide for friends and family on numerous occasions. I like to plan everything, which means a detailed itinerary crafted for every visit. After several such occasions, I have decided to share a travel guide for future visitors to benefit from my experience of planning travel and traveling around this special island.","sameAs":["http:\/\/westindiestravel.com","https:\/\/facebook.com\/westindiestravel","https:\/\/instagram.com\/westindiestravel","https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/terrestrialtemple\/","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@westindiestravel"]}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":false,"thumbnail":false,"medium":false,"medium_large":false,"large":false,"1536x1536":false,"2048x2048":false,"trp-custom-language-flag":false},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Zach","author_link":"https:\/\/westindiestravel.com\/es\/author\/terrestrialtemplegmail-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Krabi 11 September 2024 Krabi, a province in southern Thailand, is known for its limestone cliffs, clear waters, and access to destinations like Koh Phi Phi and Railay Beach.
