Ko Hong, part of the Than Bok Khorani National Park, is one of Krabi's most astonishing sights. This group of limestone islands is renowned for its pristine beaches, clear turquoise waters, and the central island's 'Hong' which means room in Thai, referring to the hidden lagoon located in the center, surrounded by towering limestone cliffs. Visitors are often captivated by the serene lagoon accessible by kayak or longtail boat at low tide, offering a truly magical experience as they navigate through narrow passageways. Ko Hong's unspoiled environment, rich with coral reefs, is home to an abundant marine life, making it a favorite spot for snorkeling and diving enthusiasts. Besides the underwater attractions, the island's surface is perfect for exploration; from the majestic rock formations to the verdant jungle terrain. Despite its scenic landscapes, Ko Hong remains less crowded than nearby tourist hotspots, providing a peaceful retreat for nature lovers and adventure seekers. The island is easily accessible from the mainland of Krabi or the popular Ao Nang beach by a short boat trip.
