Nopparat BeachLocated 22 km west of Krabi town and just next to Ao Nang, this quiet beach lies within the Hat Noppharat Thara and features a 3 kilometre long sandy stretch lined by casuarina trees.
Popular with local Thai picnickers and those who like to swim, eat and laze in the sun.
An excellent beach if you prefer to have natural shade provided by the trees. Like most of Krabi's beaches, you won't find miles of deckchairs and beach umbrellas, so buy a beach mat and find a perfect spot.
It's also possible at low tide to walk from the beach across to Koh Kao Pak Klong Island in the bay.
Location: At Noppharat Thara Beach – Mu Koh Phi Phi National Park area, Ao Nang Sub District near Ao Nang Bay, about 22 km from Krabi Town.
How to go: Use Highway 4034 and turn left at Ban Chong Pli to Highway 4202 at 6 km to the National Park Office.
Nopparat Beach Nightlife
A small nightlife spot with few bar beers and a live band is now available at the very beginning of the beach. Quiet but friendly.
