14 reviewed
A short list rather than a long one. These 14 railay and ao nang beach trips are the ones that hold up, each with its price, its running time, and the detail that ends up deciding it.

Ao Nang Hong Islands half-day tour with speedboat or longtail boats, Hong Lagoon and Hong Island swimming, snorkeling gear, beach lunch.
“Massive thanks to Leo who was a great guide with lots of energy. We had originally booked a tour the day before with another company but it was cancelled due to bad weather. We couldn't have been happier with this trip, wry efficient and the islands were just gorgeous with plenty of time and the lunch was delicious! We got the speedboat option, very fast. Also better than other options as day slightly shorter, wouldn't have wanted to do more than three islands so the perfect trip!”

Ao Nang 4 Islands by speedboat or longtail, featuring Tup’s sand bar, Chicken Island, Poda snorkel, and Phra Nang Cave Beach, with Thai lunch.
“The whole service was very efficient. Got picked up from where we were staying and continued to pick up some others along the way. Quick and efficient signing of documents and transferral of money. Sights were absolutely stunning and definitely a must see on your trip. Lunch was very tasty as well and catered to both meat eaters and vegetarians. Our tour guide was Maya and all we can say is very positive things about her. She was amazing!! Anyone would be lucky to have her as a guide.”

Snorkel Daeng and swim Hong Island on a full-day long-tail boat trip, with Hong Lagoon cruising, Thai buffet lunch, and a 360 view.
“The activity is great, not too crowded or rushed. The stops are very beautiful 😍. The 2 hour stop at Hong Island is ideal & the optional 360 viewpoint doesn’t take long to climb up to (~15mins). The snorkels are free to use & you get to keep them the whole day. Our tour guide Mimi was great! The lunch is good, with fruit snack afterward & unlimited water all day. Pick up & drop off from hotel is good. Thank you, would recommend this tour.”

Eco kayaking from Ao Nang to Klong Nam Sai in Krabi, with forest views, a clear lagoon swim, seasonal fruit, and Ao Nang transfers.
“We had the most amazing day, everything was so well organised, the staff were a extremely friendly and such a beautiful place to do such a fun activity. Our guide Doha (hope that’s how to spell his name) was fantastic. He was super patient - he helped us when we got stuck on some of the stumps we didn’t see and even helped us spot a mangrove snake hidden in the trees! Ample water was provided throughout the day and we even got a fruit platter at the end. We also had a dabble at archery which was a great way to finish off the day. I would absolutely recommend…”
