The Experience

Before You Go

Respect the weight & age limits

Maximum weight 120 kg and participants must be 5–70 years; disclose any medical issues before booking.

Wear closed‑toe, grippy shoes

Sturdy trainers or approach shoes give better footing on ladders and platforms than sandals.

Hydrate and time your tour

Midday can be hot—bring water and consider a morning slot to avoid peak sun and humidity.

Protect from insects and sun

Apply reef‑safe sunscreen and insect repellent before the tour to stay comfortable on landings.

Conservation Note

Operators usually follow low‑impact practices—stay on marked platforms, don’t feed wildlife, and avoid single‑use plastics to reduce pressure on fragile habitats.

The limestone karsts were once seabed; uplift and dissolution over millions of years created the cliffs and caves that define Krabi’s landscape.
