One of the many things we love about the island is its proximity to so many exciting places to visit...
Anyone who thinks that the southern Thai province of Krabi isn’t a great place to visit simply hasn’t been there. The area offers a variety of outdoor activities, such as scuba, trekking, mountain biking, rock climbing, white water rafting, zip lining, golfing, and oh yeah…about 130 islands, of which some have been named the most beautiful beaches in the world.
