Each year , about 60,000 guests come to celebrate the upcoming new year  in one of the biggest open air parties in Asia.We didn’t want to miss the chance to be a part of this and started to explore our options how to do it with a child. Taking Shai with us was out of the question,to many drunk people around, loud music etc..

After a crazy adventure with our child day before , we finally got to our destination for relaxation and rehabilitation.Booth of us, never been in Ko-Phangan before, but on the way from Phi Phi me and I my wife felt that we are going home, strange thing a? Will se how our stay will go.

During our short stay in Phi Phi Island we decided to visit some of the neighbor islands and beaches.
After looking around at local agencies, we decided on 2 tours. Tour to famous Maya Bay and Bamboo Island. Getting an island tour with children is bit complex , so we decided to rent a private boat for half day .

Phi Phi Islands With Children&Phi Phi Don

The way on the ferry, from Ao-Nang to Phi-Phi Don Island took us about 2.5 hours .

I must say that we were very lucky with our hotel location, it was just 100m from the pear . We were so over luggage, I could barely walk those 100m with all our stuff , I didn’t won’t to think about other people caring their luggage to other side of the island.It could be very exhausting, especially with a child.

Thailand with Children–Hong Island

During our stay in Krabi we took the advantage of having a one day tour to Hong Island. We were looking for something that we can go with a child. The tour was from 9:00-16:00 on long tail boat with covered roof, so from sun urn perspective it was safe.The tour cost was 600 THB per person and we didn’t need to pay for Shai. Actually most of Thailand tour agencies don’t charge for children bellow 2 years.

Is Thailand local food Child Friendly

Is Thailand local food is child friendly , or will I be able to find western food for my kid? That is probably a question that each parent should ask him self before coming to Thailand.
You can find most popular baby powders formulas in local stores, they are available every ware and easy to find.

Yoga in Ao-Nang Krabi, Thailand

I started practicing yoga about 6 months before we started our journey. There is something about yoga that makes you try being a better person and concentrating on the good .At the period I was training every day , I didn’t  want to touch alcohol or cigarettes ,I became vegetarian. The training lead to many positive changes in my life.
At the point we got to Ao-Nang  I didn’t practice for about 3 weeks and started to feel fat and lazy, even started to desire for cigarette smoke  again. I understand that I must find a Yoga place to practice a soon as possible.

Ao-Nang – The Beach, The Massage and The Monkey Trail

The Beach:

The beach in Ao-Nang is a central point at Krabi province .The place is absolutely beautiful, but the main beach is not that good for swimming , the water color is brown, spatially in the rainy season .For swimming and sunbathing I’d recommend taking a long tail boat and go to Railay Beach .

Railay beach is one of the famous attractions in Krabi area.
Isolated from Mainland around a rocky headland and accessible only by boat, Railay presents a tranquil and extraordinary world,  it provides a peaceful place for vacation with amazing view and beaches. At Railay there are no roads, only walking paths between the resorts.
