Krabi Hot springs

Visit the Hot springs in Krabi, a must see destination on the mainland!

Welcome to the Krabi Hot Springs! These so called natural ‘hot tubs’ were formed by mother nature into smooth rocks. The water inside comes from thermal springs far below Krabi’s surface. The hot springs are between 35 and 40 degrees celcius, which makes it perfect for a therapeutic dip. The water consists of many minerals and salts. Locals swear by it and say that it can cure or ease many health issues including sciatica and rheumatism. Enjoy a bath while surrounded by lush jungle forest. You can find the hot springs around 70 kilometer away from Krabi town and around 55 km away from Ao Nang. It’s located in Khao Pra Bang Kram national park.

The Krabi hot springs are usually visited on a group tour in combination with the Emerald pool. This tour is a unique experience to visit the most attractive highlights of Krabi’s mainland. Combine the two and experience these marvels of mother nature in an eco-filled day!

Hot spring facilities

Because of the popularity of the hot springs, the Thai government has decided to create additional bathing pools. These man made ‘hot tubs’ are located next to the natural ones and contain the same hot spring water. You can also find basic changing rooms here and small souvenir & food stalls are available on-site.
