Ao Nang Travel Info
Ao Nang attracts the two-week jet-set ingroup to its showy resorts, which outshine the beaches. Sadly, the beach is naught spectacular and the panoptic ‘European’–style esplanade that tourism-boosters boast about is actually only one large mall with souvenir shops, tailors and restaurants. Still, there are some spiffy midrange and top-end resorts with lovely garden pools, appealing enough to make the position irrelevant.
Ao Nang serves equally the primary jumping-off head for Railay, solely a 20-minute long-tail ride away. For your money, Railay is a heaps nicer berth to stay. Ao Nang is appealing, however, if you desire to partake in popular island-hopping tours or sea-kayaking adventures, equally about companies are based here. Plus, if having booze with meals is paramount, Ao Nang will do a meliorate occupation quenching your thirst: many of Railay’s resorts are Muslim owned and don’t serve alcohol in their restaurants (although you can buy beer at the local store and bring it into restaurants that don’t serve).
