PHAKNAM BAY

17 miles from Ao Nang, Krabi

PHAKNAM BAY. 7°45.383N, 98°46.930E

Just around the south headland lies Relax Beach Resort with 10 moorings and an all-tide channel cut through the reef. The resort has good Thai fare, a shady beach and cracking snorkelling. Longtails are available at high tide for the 30-minute trip to Ton Sai Bay.

The resort gives access to the easy path winding up, up… and up, 40 minutes later arriving at “that view” over the two bays. Local ingenuity has somehow managed to portage a beer and ice cream fridge to the summit for every sunset. Well worth the effort.
