I can’t recommend visiting Lanta Animal Welfare enough! We weren’t sure what the center would be like in the low season (most of the rest of the island is a ghost town) but the second we walked in, we were warmly greeted by a volunteer named Kelly who got us signed up to take some puppies on a walk and take a tour of the facilities. While we waited, we got to cuddle with all the friendly cats in their “cat city” and chat with Kelly about they work they do there. Dog walking was really fun — we got to walk two super energetic pups and the volunteers that walked with us were friendly and eager to chat with us. They also had mosquito repellant that they offered us as we walked through part of the woods. After dog walking, Kelly gave us a full tour of the facilities and talked in great detail about every space, dog, and activity that went on at the center. She was super knowledgeable and communicated an incredible amount of info while keeping it engaging and interesting — not an easy feat, as it was POURING rain for most of the tour. After the tour, she let everyone know what they could do to support the center’s efforts, both monetarily and not. I can’t stress enough what a great time we had at the center and how much anyone coming to Thailand should come visit! Learning about their mission and cuddling kittens were both highlights of our entire Thailand trip.

Wat Maha That Wachiramongkol

Reviewed By trav4go2 - Canberra, Australia

Recently completed this is one impressive temple. It appears almost indian while incorporating Thai buddhist aspects. Everywhere you go there were Thais and tourists taking photos of themselves near the artwork. Entrance is 50 baht for tourists which i felt was not an issue. Because of the size of the place, even with some thai buses arriving, at no stage did it feel crowded or rushed. Definitely worth a visit if you in the area.

Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea)

This temple complex not only serves as a religious site for the monks who live and worship there, but also features a maze of natural caves in an overgrown jungle valley where stone tools, pottery remains and the mold for making Buddha footprints have been excavated.

Reviewed By 964anuragj - Singapore, Singapore

What a physical exercise that ended with stunning views at the top of tiger cave mountain. About 1260 steep steps, equivalent of 300m height or 600m walk, this activity is definitely recommended for those who are looking for strenuous activity in Krabi. Definitely recommend but be ready for sweaty evening. Start at 5pm and be there by 6pm to get a clear sunset view. Carry plenty of water to stay hydrated but you will get filtered cold water tap at the top of the hill. People bring drones as well for a clear sky experience. We thoroughly enjoyed this and would do it again next time we are in Krabi.

PhraNang Cave Beach

Reviewed By peterz671

Phra Nang cave beach, is breathtaking! Depending on your route, you can go to railay beach west and walk through to railay beach east, and on through the caves to Phra Nang, the journey to Phra Nang is absolutely beautiful, you will likely see some wildlife along the way and there is even a slight rock climb (rope assisted) up to a viewpoint, unfortunately I didn't get to the viewpoint, but imagine its unbelievable once you get to the top. There are shops in the little resort style town on the way through where you can grab cold beverages of any sort, and snacks, and enjoy them along your walk. You will suddenly come out of the half caved walkway into pure paradise, several hundred metre tall karst formations with vegetation and birds flying to and from their nests, there is a decent size section if water ropes off for swimmers where there is no boat access for when the 40°C heat becomes too much and your forced to enter the tropical, fish filled waters. This beach I would recommend before all others at least to see once!
