What is it like to visit Krabi in October?

Well... since October is still in the wet season, it was wet. It rained every day but somehow, I still managed to get a little sunburnt.

Should you visit Krabi in October?

If a little rain doesn't bother you, GO! We walked everywhere because it wasn't hot so we saved a lot on transport. Tuk-tuks around Ao Nang only cost 30 THB - 40 THB (total minimum fee is 60 THB) one way per person but if you take them everywhere, they do add up to quite a lot.

  Also, our main reasons for going are massage and street food. While we had to wait for rain to ease down before we can go out for food, massage could be done anytime.

Massage Corner
Best Massage Ever!

  It is still possible to visit the islands and I saw tours starting from 400 THB per person. Price changes everyday. But the sea was rough and the sky wasn't blue. So that might put a damper on snorkeling and dull your vacation photos.

There are at least 3 different Centara(s) in Ao Nang. It can get confusing :)

I walked around Ao Nang SO much, my feet hurt. However, I purposely booked a nice, spacious room with pool access for this trip because I did plan to laze around in the room a lot!

Note: You can rent scooter for 200 THB per day but you'll have to leave your passport. Alternatively, some companies allow you to leave cash deposit (3000 THB) instead of passport.
