A faster alternative to Phuket is to take the
Green Planet
speedboat (950B, 75 minutes),
which goes from Hat Noppharat Thara to Bang Rong Pier, north of Phuket Town via Ko
Yao Noi and Ko Yao Yai (both 470B, 45 minutes). The boat leaves Hat Noppharat Thara
at 10.30am and 4pm and transport to your Phuket accommodation is included in the fare.
TOP OF CHAPTER
Railay
Krabi's fairy-tale limestone crags come to a dramatic climax at Railay (also spelt Rai
Leh), the ultimate jungle gym for rock-climbing fanatics. This quiet slice of paradise fills
in the sandy gaps between each craggy flourish, and although it's just around the bend
from chaotic tourist hustle in Ao Nang, the atmosphere here is nothing short of laid-back,
Rasta-Thai heaven.
