From Ao Luk towards the
Krabi coast are several
prehistoric limestone caves
in the jungle hills and
mangrove forest.
The immense surrealistic
formed limestone
outcrops are almost everywhere
in the Krabi area and
Thailand caves are hidden
deep inside. Southern
Thailand is one of the best
places for exploring caves. The
limestone caves are some of
the real
Thailand attractions.
Everyone doing a trip to
Thailand should do a
cave tour.
The climate and weather in
the Krabi area is excellent,
means cave tours could be
done every day, only in the
rainy season it needs to be
careful since flash floods
have killed quite a couple
of people in the last years.
In general its a tropical
environment with scattered
rain and thunderstorms
during the rainy season.
The scenery has still its
natural beauty and is
one of the
places worth to visit in
Thailand,
only
some tourists are kayaking
around. Usually well
built roads makes it easy to
access the area, after
everyone has to use the
boat to paddle through the
mangrove forest.
The area around Ao Luk is
still not overcrowded
since not many people know
about the whole, its still
almost free of traffic, the
right place for
vacation in Thailand.
People paddle through the
prehistoric cave and
sometimes one of the
long tail boat glides through
the cave river.
Of the hundreds of caves
that pock the jungle and
mangrove forests the best and
most informative is the
Tham
Lod cave.
There
are interesting caves
everywhere in Thailand. At
Soppong in
northern Thailand its the
"coffin cave".

No need for
waterproof suits, helmets
and the a lamps is carried
by the tour guide,
sometimes also natural
light comes in.
Only to see the
prehistoric cave wall
paintings a lamp wont be
bad, if you take one of the
long tail
boats the boat man has a
lamp with him, he will show
the paintings on the
ceilings.
The caves are 10 – 30
meters wide and have
several chambers on each
side. A couple of slippery descents are to be mastered |
