A vast sandbar at the mouth of the Mae Klong River, famous for its colonies of razor clams — at low tide locals wade out to harvest them, and a strip of seafood shacks serves the catch within metres of where it was dug.
A seaside grotto on a stunning Krabi beach crammed with hundreds of carved and painted wooden phalluses — offerings to a sea princess spirit from fishermen seeking safe passage and a good catch.
A restaurant set inside a natural limestone cave on Krabi's Phra Nang Beach — you dine among stalactites and rock formations right at the sand's edge, with the Andaman Sea a few steps away.
