πŸ‘πŸ‘ I used this pier to take a boat to Railay Beach. They want to have enough passengers before they decide to take us. They were charging 150 baht each, and 1200 for a private boat (if you don’t want to wait for more passengers to arrive). 5 of us ended up splitting the cost and paying 1000 baht total....

My suggestion, the earlier you come to wait at the pier, the higher chance you have of other passengers joining so you only pay 150. Life jackets are provided

    I came here in the evening, there are many delicious street food restaurants. The atmosphere is quite good, the air is cool because it is by the river. Most of the customers who come here are Thai people. If you are a foreigner, you are very lucky to come and try the local food and you will see what the people of the area eat.

    150 Baht per person or 1200 Baht (8 passengers x 150 Baht) for entire boat between Krabi Town and Railay East (not Railay West). From airport to the pier at Krabi Town it costs 350 Baht fixed cab price. Beware cab driver might say the pier at Krabi Town does not work and try to convince you to go to further away Ao Nang, which costs almost double the cab fare.

    Long tail boat to railay, 150 baht per person each way. It won't leave until there are at least 8 people in the boat so you could be waiting 30mins. Ferry to Koh lanta leaves at 11.30am and 2pm each day. We paid 400baht through our hotel, but the hotel beside us offered it for 300baht. Cheapest option is probably just to land up at the pier and pay there. Also, wear a raincoat. You will get soaked queing for the boat during boarding and then the AC is freezing when you get on. Bring snacks as this ferry doesn't have a bar. The food stalls that are on in the evening time around here are great value, around 50baht per meal.

    This pier is the main departure point to various destination that are reachable by boat. Boats to Railay East beach cost 150 Baht, but beware that the drivers usually wait for 8 people to fill up the seats. This can result in long waiting times, especially during low season. Common departure times during low season are between 10h and 12h. The pier area also hosts a food court that opens in the evening, offering a variety of different local foods at a good price!

    Great place to walk and exercise. It has an outdoor gym

    We drove from Krabi to Railey Beach. 150 per person per tour. There are multiple companies. They always wait until a minimum of 8 people is on board. DO ONLY PURCHASE ONE-WAY TICKETS. The price is the same, but you save yourself waiting time from up to 1 hour on the way back. You can just take the first full boat and do not have to wait until your providers boat is full...

    The nearest pier for Krabi town. Long tail boat is available at 150 Baht to and from Railay pier. Arrive here and take taxi for Krabi Airport.

    Pictures say more than words ;-) The inns are opposite and also offer boat tours. Rooms are available from 300 baht with a fan and shared bathroom (hot water), 450 baht for AC - double bed.

    Unfortunately it's pretty run down. It's still enough for a walk...

    I am giving this a 5 because of the awesome food market here starting at 6pm. Great local Thai food made fresh in front of your eyes. Incredibly cheap too. My wife and I can eat a nice meal for 180 baht ($7 CAD). I highly recommend it over the restaurants in the area.

    There are legit taxi men in vests and those who try to get you a better deal. We never dealt with the non-vested guys but they seemed easier to negotiate with than the vested guys. We did hop on a long tail across the river for only 90 seconds and the guy charged us 100 Baht for 2 people. This was absurd. We paid only 100 more for a tour earlier that day for much longer. We tried to reason but he claimed to speak not much English. Long tale later (see what I did there? ;)), we paid him what he wanted and left before it poured down rain. The views here are nice when it's not raining.

    Night market with foods and beverage only. Near the river but we can not enjoy the natural beauty at night πŸŒ‰. Halah foods in Krabi

    Good place to pass time while waiting for the boat

  • 1/5 R. S. 1 year ago on Google β€’ 2 reviews
    The place is full of boaters trying to sell you a ride. One person did it and immediately asked for 10 times as much after the trip. Be extremely careful and if necessary threaten to call the tourist police. Unfortunately, a depressing end to a great trip.
