Krabi is a coastal town in Thailand that is well known for its beautiful, idyllic beaches. The area is defined for its sparkling blue waters, white sand, tanned beach goers, and adventurous snorkelers and surfers.The selection of luxury hotels and tourist hot spots is also a reason why many people choose to travel to Krabi. Despite it all, however, Krabi is not as popular as other coastal vacation spots in Thailand. As such, the beach hotels are somewhat secluded, offering tourists the chance to relax, drink in hand, while listening to the sounds of the waves crashing into the shore.
