Thankfully, the South of \u00a0the country is one of those places one can easily wonder without much worries.\r\n\r\nExpect beaches of endless beauty, with calm and peaceful waters. During the day, they are covered by a radiant pristine colour, and as the sun goes down they develop delicate hues. Oranges and purples that keep changing its shade until it gets dark. We rented a car and explored Krabi province and the island of Koh Lanta. But most of the tourists prefer to do it on two wheels, as distances are not too big.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s the kind of trip where you definitely want to let go and relax. White sandy beaches will slow you down automatically. And you\u2019ll get caught up by a net of calm, beauty and kindness.\r\n\r\n<style type='text\/css'>\n    #ngg-gallery-2146 .ngg-pro-masonry-item {\n        margin-bottom: 4px;\n    }\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"ngg-pro-masonry\" id=\"ngg-gallery-2146\">\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-gutter' style='width: 4px'><\/div>\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-sizer' style='width: 200px'><\/div>\n                <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 150px;

But at the islands, of course, you are more likely to spot a bigger diversity of fishes just by swimming along their beaches.\r\n\r\nFrom Koh Lanta and Krabi, speed boats offer group tours to neighbouring islands known for its diverse marine life and white sandy beaches. Normally the boats leave early in the morning. At that time, the sea is at its best. So it is a very good opportunity to sail the peaceful waters of the Andaman Sea. We even spot a few flying fishes along the way.\r\n\r\n<style type='text\/css'>\n    #ngg-gallery-2147 .ngg-pro-masonry-item {\n        margin-bottom: 4px;\n    }\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"ngg-pro-masonry\" id=\"ngg-gallery-2147\">\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-gutter' style='width: 4px'><\/div>\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-sizer' style='width: 200px'><\/div>\n                <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 133px;

But you still might need to make a quick stop there if you want to explore the cliffs and caves of\u00a0Railay Beachand\u00a0Phranang Beach. \u00a0Both of them can only be accessed by sea and long tail boats leave regularly from Ao Nang beach to both Railay and Phranang.\r\n\r\nIf you want to take a rest from the beach, consider a short hike at the\u00a0Tha Pom mangroves\u00a0in Krabi. When the tide is high, crystal clear waters flow through a forest of tropical plants and trees.\r\n\r\nKrabi\u2019s\u00a0Phanom Bencha National Park\u00a0has one of the biggest waterfalls in the area, the\u00a0Huay Tho waterfalls. Unfortunately, when we visited, the higher levels of the waterfall where not accessible due to landslides. But if you feel like hiking into the tropical jungle, the Park is still worth visiting, as it has a two hour loop-trail very recommendable. The path is very steep and slippery at some points; so be aware of your fitness level before venturing into the forest.\r\n\r\nIn Koh Lanta, the\u00a0Mu Koh Lanta National Park\u00a0has a 30 minute loop-trail worth exploring. The hike is surrounded by ancient tropical trees and plants. It\u2019s also likely that you\u2019ll have some little company along the way: monkeys. They inhabit the forest and seem quite accustomed to see humans wondering around, so they shouldn\u2019t bother you, unless you bother them.\u00a0 Before starting the trail, take a moment to make a quick climb to the abandoned lighthouse to enjoy the view of the Andaman sea and its calm waters.\r\n\r\n<style type='text\/css'>\n    #ngg-gallery-2150 .ngg-pro-masonry-item {\n        margin-bottom: 4px;\n    }\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"ngg-pro-masonry\" id=\"ngg-gallery-2150\">\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-gutter' style='width: 4px'><\/div>\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-sizer' style='width: 200px'><\/div>\n                <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 150px;
