It’s hot out in Asia; you need a beach. Phuket is an easy option. But for years savvy travellers have sprung for Krabi just a short hop away, where the beaches are less crowded and limestone cliffs tower over placid waters. It’s just about always warm here, and right now the weather is still dry before monsoon rains hit. There’s rock climbing and kayaking, but Krabi is really made for another kind of trip – the laziest kind.
