BEST TIME TO VISIT KRABI

Krabi is a small city on the West coast of Southern Thailand’s Andaman coast & it was originally inhabited as early as 25,000 – 35,000 years ago. From archaeological finds, Krabi is believed to be one of Thailand’s oldest groups dating back to prehistoric times. It is assumed that after the meaning of Krabi the town may have taken its name, which means sword. This may have arisen from a legend that prior to the foundation of the city an ancient sword was discovered.
