Surrounded by water on most sides, yet still connected to the mainland, Railay Beach sits between the city of Ao Nang and Krabi. Locals also know it as Rai Leh and, because of its high limestone cliffs, Railey Beach can only be accessed by boat. If you love rock climbing, this could be the best vacation location for you, since it is famous as a rock-climbing destination. If you are wondering what you can do while in Rai Leh, you can go on a four-island tour, relax on Railay Beach or even visit Phra Nang Beach and Pranang Cave. Take a look at the best Airbnb vacation rentals in or near Railay Beach, Thailand, and make your pick!
