About Krabi and Koh Lanta
Krabi province on Thailand's Andaman coast is famous for limestone cliffs, clear water, and easy access to islands such as Phi Phi, Hong Island, and local four-island loops. Koh Lanta sits within this network of beaches, piers, and national park zones, making it practical for both short holidays and week-long stays. Infrastructure has improved steadily — ATMs, mini-marts, clinics, and tour counters are common — yet the region still feels more relaxed than busier beach hubs.
Check In Krabi publishes guides, hotel lists, restaurant picks, and public place notes to help visitors compare options before they book. Always cross-check ferry times, park fees, and national holiday crowds because conditions change by season. Respect marine parks: avoid single-use plastic on boats, do not stand on coral, and follow staff instructions during snorkeling stops.

A nice place, but the entrance fee of 200 baht per person feels quite high, especially since the paths are not well maintained and there is a lot of mess at the beginning. I definitely recommend taking the free guide with you – they will walk you through the jungle and show you tarantulas, bats, spiders, and other wildlife you might otherwise miss. The waterfall itself is beautiful, as long as you don’t have to wait half an hour because someone is having a long photo shoot there.
23/01/2026 09:44Badly maintained path, bring solid shoes. Also, where you parkt the motorbike, you do not get the ticket for the national park, this is handed out later (keep it you can reenter with this at the nice beach in the south/lighthouse). Pay attention that the scooter parking mafia is not overcharging you, because as mentioned they do not issue the ticket to the waterfall. For the way there keep close to the river, any other route is terrible. The waterfall....well not ultra spectacular. The bat cave is optimal if you want to obtain some random and rate brain parasite.... Lots of bat popop
07/12/2025 20:31A nice break from the beach to hike up to a small waterfall. The hike wasn’t easy and I would recommend decent trainers. The trail is well marked but the terrain isn’t always level and can certainly be slippery in parts when wet.
The car park is reasonable with a fee of 60B for cars an 40B for motorcycles. A short hike to the National Park entrance with the usual fees for foreigners (200B for adult) and nationals
If you have been to the Mu Koh Lanta Nationalpark before then you do not need to pay the 200baht entrance fee.
Just show the parkofficer your picture of the NP map as a proof you have been there.
You certainly eould need to pay the required parking fee for yoyr scooter/car.
Lovely, not too strenious jungle trail of about 45 minutes. Good shoes are needed, no thongs please.
Do not expect a waterfall like at Niagra, it's more on the smaller scale, however still a very relaxing spot if not overrun by a loud group of other tourists who are claiming this calm place to be their playground.
Important! Fee for entrance is 200baht, but if you pay at the parking you have guide for the exact same price. Guide shows you tarantula nests and other insects and multiple ways to cave and waterfall. Waterfall itself is pretty small, but walk in the forrest was nice. Cave is also worth the visit, its only 5 minute walk from waterfall, but go inside only with guide, because there are scorpions and spiders!
