At railay now. We were advised on the forum prevpreviously about a sunset boat trip that is worth a go. Not a long tail but a boat with a bar etc

Can anyone refresh my memory?? Thanks

Don't know if they pass by Railey but, there is a "booze cruise party" with dj, sunset dinner, snorkeling around Poda, Tup and Chicken islands. It s set up by a famous hostel in Aonang if i m not wrong.

We're going with the one run by an Aussie guy wwill report back with verdict

I've seen a big 3 storey Teak boat in Ao Nam Mao which I believe is owned by the Railay Bay Resort, has 8 bedrooms, bars, lounge etc. looks really good. Im told they plan to do sunset cruises as well as some longer trips later. I chatted with the chap overseeing the conversion work, Rin (speaks good English) his number is 085 473 2028, may be worth checking out.

This is the big boat I mentioned, quite unique I reckon. I don't know any details or prices but I'm told they will do 1 day trips plus a 2 or 3 day cruise, and sunset cruises. Got to be much better than being cramped up like sardines in one of the regular speedboats here :-)

I've just booked a cruise on this with some friends to see the new year in, starts at 5 p.m. includes a stop at one of the local islands for a bbq and live music, fire dancing show etc. then back to somewhere near Ao Nang where we get to watch the celebrations and fireworks at Midnight from the boat all for 1800 baht each (gotta take your own alcaholic drinks tho) Sure beats the busy streets of Ao Nang and Krabi i.m.o. Plenty of tickets left if anyones interested (just call Rin).
