Railay Beach Got Me Hooked

#summervacay Okay, Railay Beach? Total dream. It’s technically part of the mainland, but you can only get there by boat, so it feels like a hidden island getaway. We hopped on a longtail from Ao Nang, and just 15 minutes later, we were in paradise.

The views here are ridiculous. Like, those dramatic limestone cliffs straight-up look fake, and the water is this perfect turquoise that makes you wanna dive in and never leave. Tons of people come here to rock climb (the cliffs are famous for it), but I was more into the lazy beach bum lifestyle, just chilling, swimming, and soaking up the sun.

There's a cool mix of backpacker vibes and relaxed families, and everything feels super easygoing. The little walking streets are lined with cute cafes and smoothie stands, and the sunsets? Insane. Like, golden hour on steroids.

If you’re anywhere near Krabi, Railay’s a must. It’s got the beauty, the vibe, and the chill factor all in one.
