This activity is accessible and affordable for nearly all tourists.

The towering cliffs that grace the numerous islands have earned Krabi the reputation of being the "Mecca of rock climbing." Tonsai Beach stands as an iconic destination for climbers from all corners of the globe. Here, numerous climbing schools offer lessons, making it accessible even for beginners.

Diving and snorkeling have become traditional water-based activities in Krabi, with over a dozen diving schools located in Ao Nang.

If you possess a diving certificate, you can expect approximately 500 THB for 2 dives. Beginners can also enjoy introductory dives with instructors, reaching depths of 5 to 6 meters.

Yachting, sea fishing, and windsurfing are additional popular activities that thrive in Krabi's vibrant waters.
