Kho Kai Island in Krabi

Kho Kai Island (Kho Kai) Krabi: A small paradise you must experience yourself

I, mr.hotsia, had the chance to travel again to Krabi province, a land that never disappoints me. This time, my destination is “Kho Kai” or Kho Kai Island, which many may not be familiar with yet. But I can tell you this is one of the peaceful and beautiful spots you shouldn’t miss when visiting Krabi.

Kho Kai Island is not far from the Krabi mainland. It is a small island famous for its limestone rocks shaped like a chicken. Simply looking from the sea, you can see that each rock is unique and striking, like a natural painting intentionally created. I, mr.hotsia, departed from Krabi town in the morning by speedboat docked at Ao Nang Bay. The trip takes only about 20-30 minutes to reach Kho Kai.

The first feeling upon arriving at Kho Kai by boat was the tranquility and the clear sea water that made me sit quietly, admiring the view without wanting to look away. The sea is crystal clear blue, allowing you to see the sandy bottom and schools of fish swimming below. The surrounding atmosphere is natural, still raw and pure.

Activities and Impressions on Kho Kai Island

Kho Kai Island is perfect for those who love peace and want to escape the hustle and bustle of big cities. I, mr.hotsia, walked along the long fine white sandy beach while enjoying the limestone mountain views around the island, which seem to embrace this beauty to protect it from harm. The island has safe snorkeling spots suitable for beginners like me to see coral reefs and various fish welcoming visitors continuously.
