Where can you enjoy the best sunset in Krabi?

This tour is ideal if you’re looking for a complete Krabi experience, combining snorkelling, iconic beaches and a spectacular sunset with a BBQ dinner, ending with the natural spectacle of bioluminescent plankton in the Andaman Sea.

  • Krabi’s 7 Islands Sunset Tour combines snorkelling, beaches and a BBQ dinner at sunset
  • Exploring Krabi by traditional longtail boat offers a more authentic and relaxed way to discover the islands
  • Bioluminescent plankton in Krabi creates a natural spectacle that can be seen while swimming at night
  • The excursion includes stops at Koh Poda, Chicken Island and Phra Nang Beach
  • Koh Tup’s sandbar allows you to walk between islands when the tide permits

We’ll cruise through some of Krabi’s most iconic landscapes, stopping at places such as Koh Poda, the sandbar that emerges beside Koh Tup, and Railay Beach. As the sun begins to set, the pace slows down, giving you time to swim, snorkel and enjoy the surroundings without rushing. Meanwhile, as the sky changes colour, we’ll prepare a delicious BBQ on the beach.

After dark, the sea offers one of those unexpected moments. You’ll have the opportunity to enter the water and observe the subtle glow of bioluminescent plankton. A special way to end a day that feels different from the usual, as the Andaman Sea reveals its calmer, quieter side.

Itinerary

12:00–12:30 · Pick-up from your accommodation

  • Our dream afternoon begins with a comfortable pick-up from your accommodation in Krabi or Ao Nang. We’ll head to the pier, leaving the daily routine behind as we get ready to explore the gems of the Andaman Sea. The exact pick-up time will depend on the location of your accommodation and the number of participants.

 

Departure on a traditional boat

  • We’ll board a traditional longtail boat, Thailand’s iconic wooden vessel, at Nopparat Thara Pier. Feel the sea breeze as we leave the coast behind and venture into a world of paradise islands.

 

Yawasam Island: An underwater garden

  • Our first stop will be in the crystal-clear waters surrounding the charming island of Yawasam. Get ready for an unforgettable snorkelling session as you discover a vibrant underwater world filled with colourful fish and coral reefs.

 

Koh Poda: A white-sand paradise

  • We’ll continue to idyllic Koh Poda, a picture-perfect island with soft white sand and turquoise waters. You’ll have time to relax in the sun, swim in the calm waters or continue exploring marine life close to the shore.

 

Chicken Island: A distinctive silhouette

  • We’ll stop for photos at the famous Chicken Island. Its unusual rock formation, which remarkably resembles a chicken’s head, is one of the region’s most distinctive and fun sights.

 

Koh Tup and Mohr: A path across the sea

  • We’ll witness a magical natural phenomenon known as Talay Waek. At low tide, an impressive sandbar emerges, connecting the Tup and Mohr Islands with Chicken Island. You’ll be able to walk along this natural bridge with the sea on either side — a truly unique experience.

 

Phra Nang Beach: Sunset BBQ in paradise

  • We’ll arrive at the spectacular Phra Nang Cave Beach just in time for the most magical moment of the day. As the sun paints the sky in incredible colours, our team will prepare a delicious BBQ buffet dinner on the beach. Wonderful flavours, beautiful colours and a dreamlike setting for a sunset you won’t forget.

 

Khea Reux Bin: Swimming in a sea of stars

  • Once darkness has fallen, we’ll head to our final and most magical destination. Away from the lights, you’ll have the opportunity to swim in bioluminescent waters. With every movement, tiny plankton organisms illuminate the sea around you, creating the sensation of swimming among the stars.

 

20:00 · Return under the moonlight

  • With your heart full of memories, we’ll cruise back to Ao Nang Pier, where our transfer service will be waiting to take you back to your hotel.

Responsible Snorkelling

Let’s Protect the Marine Treasures of the Andaman Sea

 

We invite you to enjoy the reefs and marine life respectfully. This ecosystem is fragile and depends on all of us to survive.

Avoid touching or walking on corals, as they are living organisms that are extremely sensitive. Observe the fish without chasing them or disturbing their natural behaviour.

Do not collect shells or other natural objects, as they are part of the ecosystem’s delicate balance.

Whenever possible, use biodegradable sunscreen to help protect the reefs.

Small actions can make a big difference. Protecting this environment is the best way to ensure we can continue enjoying it today and in the future.
