1. Gorgeous sight of anchored boats on Ao Nang beach, but this beach is definitely NOT for swimming
If you’re in Krabi or Phuket, and you shy away from the sun, the sea or even refrain from staying outdoors during daytime, you’re better off holidaying in Timbuktu. Really. Mentally and physically prepared for the imminent tanning, the gals slapped on sunscreen with the highest SPF (sun protection factor) there is in the market. Kind of amazing how their routine of applying and re-applying the lotion took place almost automatically, at fixed intervals. But of course, you’d better be well-prepared, for getting sunburn is NOT the most ideal souvenir you’d want to bring home after a long day out on the seas.
Road Trip – Krabi, Thailand!
Road Trip – Krabi, Thailand.

Destination – Krabi, Thailand. Distance to destination – 850Km. Departure point – Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Total cars in convoy – 4. Stopover – overnight at Hat Yai, Thailand.
It was a 5-day trip. 4 of them were spent on the road. That leaves us with only one full day to enjoy Krabi. 11 of my family members occupied 2 cars, while 2 of our friends in the other 2 with their families. The journey to Hat Yai itself was an 8 hour drive. Thank god I’m wasn’t driving! …or so I thought. My dad had fever on that day so I took over the wheel. Poor thing was coughing nastily throughout the whole drive.
We stayed at the beautiful AoNang Villa Resort. Gosh. Felt like I was in one of those Travel Channel show reviewing hotels (think Samantha Brown’s Passport to …Asia?).

Phi Phi Island : The Chao Ley sea gypsies named the islands Pulaopi are pi. Pulao means island and pi is a kind of tree or samae. The island group lies 42 km from the mainland of Krabi and is composed of 6 islands : Phi Phi Don Island, Phi Phi Ley Island, Bida Nork Island, Bida Nai Island, Mosquito Island and Bamboo Island.
MOSQUITO ISLAND
Lies to the North of Phi Phi Don Island. It is the least visited of all the local islands, with very little beach land, but is not lacking in underwater attractions, as testified by the visits of dive operators.
