Southern Thailand Trip. Day 1-2: Ao Nang Beach

KLIA2 in the evening

Sawa Dee! We just got back from a year-end holiday to Krabi. What is it like to get tanned over the Andaman seabed or lush with greenery respite from the sun? Well, we will share our way of doing things. That day, it was bright. The AirAsia outbound flight departed as scheduled in the evening. Arrived at Krabi Airport nearly half past five, we booked a two-day trip at the travel agency available that costs THB 4,400 (2 adults, 1 child) for 4-islands day trip and hot-spring waterfall visit with elephant trekking.

I've been told by the taxi driver that took us to Ao Nang, it is more expensive to book the trip at the airport. However, it was the same prices upon checking with abundant local agencies in Ao Nang. Anyway, the private transfer from the airport to Ao Nang costs us THB 600, and there is an option of a bus-ride for THB 150/person.

Had our dinner at halal stall just in front of the hotel

Room 201

In the morning of the second day, my wife presented her paper at ADVCIT conference located in Deevana Plaza, about 5 minutes walk. I took this chance to walk around that area looking the way to the Ao Nang beach, Somehow, Nu'man hesitate to walk further.. :( Interestingly, I found an advertisement on the Muay Thai contest held on Friday evening. Thinking of booking the seats, probably I need to prior check with my wife interest. Two options available, THB 1500 for inner ring seat or THB 1000 for arena seat.

Musolla is nearby to our hotel.

Small halal stalls along the street with varieties of food.

This is the airport bus I told earlier

In late afternoon, we took tuk-tuk ride to Aonang beach that costs THB 30/person. We spent that evening walking along the beach watching the sunset and stop by the abundant souvenir shop. We had our dinner at Ban Lay seafood Krabi, as recommended by TripAdvisor, and even we made a come back on the final night.
