Old Fool Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I'm trying to decide how long I should stay in March. Is it a lot quieter than Phuket? Are there many fun bars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angsta Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Krabi is a province, do you mean Krabi town? That isn't really a party town unless it's changed out of sight in the last few years. Where in Krabi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Fool Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 I guess I mean Ao Nang. That's probably where I'm going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I've not been for a few years, but there was only one street that had a few bars up and down it, running off the main beach road. There are a few hotels with bars, and a couple of other places. But IMHO, not a place to go if you want to party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancashirelad Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Au Nang is very pleasant. Popular with European young families. A great place to base if you like to go sailing out around the islands. Be aware that climbing in & out of long tails boats requires some effort, but is well worth it as the scenery is spectacular. There are 2 small errrr......."entertainment" bar areas and a few normal bars have some pretty good live music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChangMaiSausage Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Depends on your definition of a party? one mans party may be another mans nightmare... Ao Nang beers bars a few hotel bars not much else. Better off travelling to Phuket or Samui or even better stay in Bangkok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rykbanlor Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Grim, and I live here. Aonang has 1 grim girly soi which I hope is not your idea of a party. It has a couple of busy bars with generally decent live bands (boogie/roots rock) but if you're like me, live music, in its sheer mass availability here, is pretty boring, particularly if thats all there is night in night out. There is also a courtyard of bar/clubs playing really shitty music mix of pophits/shitty trance etc. I capitalise on this as I am wanting to live quietly and save money (to add components to my music production/DJ setup which given i live somewhere with no music scene populated with bars that play highly unadventurous generic music and I play old school hiphop and 70s funk/soul, makes for a rich irony). Enjoy your holiday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeHere Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Ao Nang is a quiet town, a bit family friendly... there's a few pubs around that get hopping, but not a lot of sexy girls on the prowl or sex industry (at least out in the open) that can put the icing on the cake on those big party nights if you get to fvcked up to work at picking up chicks LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacksam Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 There is nothing there to party. It is OK place to take gf. Has couple of nice live music. One small soi of second rate bars. Not even open till say after 4. Its for snorkeling , islands etc. I booked a couple of trips there ONLY because the flights were so cheap. I don't like the joint.

mick01827 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I was in ao nang in December/January, no party scene, mostly families/couples and lots of restaurants and pretty expensive, I went to one shop and they didn't even sell alcohol because they were muslim, could hear the chanting at the mosque in the morning and through out the day, felt like I was in Turkey, the only plus point were the beaches, don't think I'd ever return.

Nemesis7 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Im so interested to know if you do finally get to experience some party scene in KRABI??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deli Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Nothing really going on in Ao Nang, except Soi RCA, when being desperate, Go to Phuket ot Samui, if you want beach and party. Otherwise is Patts,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipperylobster Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 This is really sad...nobody wants to go because no bars/girls.....like Phuket and Pattaya. What happened to just enjoying a place for what it is, instead of staring at a gogo girl and drinking until you pass out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwdrwdrwd Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) This is really sad...nobody wants to go because no bars/girls.....like Phuket and Pattaya. What happened to just enjoying a place for what it is, instead of staring at a gogo girl and drinking until you pass out? People have liked going out to listen to decent music, to dance and to socialise as far back as history stretches, 'party scene' doesn't necessarily mean letching at bar girls whilst sitting down on a bar stool getting drunk. In either case however, Ao Nang / Krabi is not the place for it. Edited September 7, 2015 by rwdrwdrwd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he is referring to comedy clubs and since he is most apparently a tourist; I'll wager he wants girly bars. Some people do come to Thailand for the girls you know. They are not all like us; wanting temples, floating markets, elephant rides and squat toilets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smotherb Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I think it depends on what you want. Ao Nang, is quiet and March will still be the off-season. There are bars; specifically the RCA bar soi, does have some girlie bars. There are also other bars on the main street all through town. Around the corner at Center Point on the beach road are a few more; some open late. Since it is a family oriented resort town, there are also many massage parlors catering to the husbands out shopping or having a beer during the day. Also one of my favorite burger joints in Thailand, TJ Sports Pub, next to McDonald's across the street from Soi RCA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serveral times I tried to mention the serenity and beauty of squatting properly..but I just could not get it out.
