Beach description
But you can find accommodation here, there are resorts and bungalow hotels with large green area, villas for rent. The beach itself is not very cupola – at high tide from the coast in many places remains very narrow strip, and during low tide the sea goes very far, exposing stones with sharp shells and rubbish.
So the biggest plus of the beach is that walking along him, you may not meet a single soul in a few hours.
The beach is about 4 kilometers long, from the side of the Railay Peninsula it is bounded by the pier Ao Nam Mao, and on the other it is adjacent Landmark and Beach – Shell Cemetery (Shell fossil). Along the beach in places there are mangroves and large clumps of pressed shells.
Yes, the seashell cemetery as official tourist the note is in a different place, but it’s also full old shells, pressed by time into huge plates.

The beach has a beautiful view of the islands. far away and it’s nice to meet sunsets.

Entry, depth and waves
The main disadvantage of the beach is that swimming here is not very comfortable and nice, but in the outflow of water and generally goes very far, and too much trash on the shore. At low tide from the pier, you can walk along the beach loose, but the tide remains rather narrow strip of land, easier to go on the road. Another great feature of Ao Nammao Beach is at night you can see plankton glowing in the dark.
Sun beds and shade
Mangrove trees directly in the water and trees bordering beach, create a shadow and a sense of privacy. Ao Num Mao’s shore The principle is very green and with a shadow there is no problem at all. Sun beds come across periodically around more or less large resorts and where This allows the beach. As I already wrote, it is not the widest in Krabi. It is much easier here to find a hammock, suspended on mangroves.
