Ban Klong Muang is a great place to stay. It was very quiet and relaxing when we were there. Most hotels are just off the main road, which runs through Klong Muang, very close to the beach. There are great little restaurants everywhere and a 7-11 just down the road for all your essentials. Ao Nang is about 15 minutes away. A taxi is about 450-500 baht and 350-450 for a tuk tuk. Most tours will pick you up and drop you back from your accommodation. There are long boats near the Nakamanda that will take you out to the islands. It's brilliant.

If you are looking for a beach that is calm, quiet with a few nice bars and resorts, this is for you. About 15 minutes from Ao Naoung Beach -full animation bars shops etc … by motorbike.

After two days in, waiting to check in, I checked out the beach. Looking for signs of life other than humans, the squid-remains, accidentally interrupted a trail of minute hermit-lobsters (see image 2). The water is so clear and clean here but a few minutes in and am bitten by tiny sea-creatures. The beach is littered with all kinds of shells but more distressing, the amount of dead corals on the beach can't be counted (picture 1 shows image of gathered corals while sitting still in less than 5 minutes)
Laying on the beach, immediately bitten by either a red-coloured ant or spider, picked it up and threw away immediately. Same colour of spider later turned up on my other arm, didn't recognize the head as before though.
The people seem woefully unhappy with the exception of my tuktuk-driver. The tourist-things seem too touristy, anything else appears to be a mess. Normally, when the city's left behind, it clears up. Not here. Just as I thought nobody cleaned up here, two men shovel dead leaves together. Contrary to some other reviews I read, this beach is relatively clean of plastics, a few littered here and there, brought in by sea and it's quite peaceful.
Tourism here appears to be new-colonialism and nothing else.
For purpose of holiday, I'll not be returning.

Some say, this is the most beautiful beach in the Krabi region ... it is large and mostly clean, perfect for extended beach walks ...

It was a couple of years since our last visit here and things have changed. It is much, much quieter now and that has both pluses and minuses. At times, you will almost have the beach to yourself but it also means there is less activity and action around it.
The sand is white, soft and beautiful. The sea is not the very cleanest we saw around here but it’s still great and very calm.
There are no facilities for renting Sun beds or umbrellas so you need to find shade under the palm trees. Hardly the worst position in the world to be in!

I walked along here every morning for the two weeks we were here. So much to see with all the boats 🚤, rock pools when the tide is out. Overhanging trees giving shade for sun bathers it has everything for a day or longer if you are staying here.

Although not as well known or visited as the beaches at Ao Nang or Nopparathara, Khlong Muang beach is certainly worth taking the time to visit. It's much quieter and ideal for all types of visitors with plenty of opportunities to stretch the legs and breathe in the sea air.
The views from the beach of several of the off shore islands are very picturesque even on a relatively dull day.
There are opportunities to eat and/or drink and what better way to spend time relaxing than by sitting in a beachfront cafe.
Well worth visiting.

Try Rose Andaman Travel & tour near the Sunset Bar and Mom's Bar. Reasonable prices and were very flexible putting together trips for us. +66 (0) 83 1730849. We visited 4 islands, and the boat's captain waited for as long as we wanted. Unfortunately Google Street View is out of date else you would see the shop front not far from the Beyond Hotel.
Ask one of the local restaurants to prepare a packed lunch for you, grab some drinks and you're good to go.

Здравствуйте
Около отеля (вправо, влево метров на 500) есть несколько ресторанов, разного уровня обслуживания и цен (и отельные, и самостоятельные). Тайцы очень любят детей, поэтому, думаю, в любом из них вам и детям будут рады. Если смотреть на море влево где-то с километр есть торговая площадь, там есть все необходимые магазины, даже типа торговый центр, банкоматы, фрукты, куча разноплановых ресторанов (процентов на 20 дешевле, без потери качества). Проблема в том районе одна - нет тук-туков, только такси. Мы брали автомобиль напрокат.

Hello
All the beaches in this country are pubblic. Beaches belong to the state of Thailand.
In fact' so beach side hotels are not allowed to use facilities reserved in exclusivity for their guests within a certain distance from the shore.
this is under thai law ...

We are staying at the Dusit Thani Resort and finding it impossible to hire a car locally. Does anyone know of any car rental companies near to Klong Muang or Ao Nang at least. Every one seems to be based at Krabi or at the airport. Thanks

Unless you plan to go far, I strongly advice to take scooter. It is cheap and the fun is much much bigger! We took scooters to drive to temple, that is on the top of mountain (can't remember name now), it was about 25 km away - 25 km of PURE FUN :)

Suivez la route depuis krabi pour vous rendre à klong muang vous pouvez suivre également la route pour vous rendre à tub kay. Ou encore suivre la route pour vous rendre à l'hôtel sofitel. Notre hotel quant à lui s'appelle white sand , la direction est très s aimables, si vous y allez remettez le bonjour de maman Rosette et papa Etienne à nim. Cet hôtel se trouve juste après le sofitel. Si vous cherchée un resto sympa pour la soirée allez donc chez mon ami Kanet restaurant bai tong face à l'hôtel Beyond resort ou encore le sawasdee après le magasin eleven là remettez mon bonjour à one.
