Khao Khanap Nam
Khao Khanap Nam, you
can see further down from the pier to Phi Phi Island.100 m high
hills rising from the water, is regarded as the symbol of Krabi.
It sits before the city and can be visited by long tail boat
from Chao Fa Pier. Travel time is about 15 minutes. From the
boat, one climbs a staircase to see caves with stalactites and
stalagmites. Many human skeletons have been found in the area.
It is theorized they are the remains of immigrants who became
stranded and died after a sudden flood.

Krabi Town
Krabi town is still
a scenic little backwater town but what it lacks in size it
makes up for in the number of great places to eat. The night
market in Krabi, with its great seafood at low prices and a host
of Thai dessert venders, has a great selection of fresh and well
cooked food.
