Krabi: Emerald Pool, Hot Springs and Tiger Cave Temple

Begin at the Emerald Pool, also called 'Sa Morakot', a unique natural pond with a striking blue color and wonderfully warm waters, making it a stunning spot for swimming. Nearby the Emerald Pool you'll find the Blue Lagoon, a beautiful pool with deep aquamarine-blue water. Don't be tempted to take a dip in the blue water, because unlike in the Emerald Pool you can't swim here!
Next, head to Namtok Ron – located in a shady green forest area with numerous hot springs and lovely cascades of warm water. The water comes from volcanic chambers deep underground and you'll have time to relax in one of the many natural hollows in the creek.

Finally, head into the forest to discover Wat Tham Suea (Tiger Cave Temple) – one of the highlights of Krabi. In addition to being a place of worship it is a famous meditation centre, and acts as a retreat for Buddhist monks and nuns.

You need to climb 1260 stairs to the top, so a degree of physical fitness is required. Once you make it to the top, you are rewarded with stunning views of the surrounding countryside, with all the limestone cliffs and beautiful, lush rain forest. If you think the climb to the top might be too tough for you, you can also visit the temple on ground level.

At the end of you amazing day, you'll be driven back to the starting point in the Ao Nang area.
