Why go, and how to do it well
Centre Point is one of Ao Nang's most talked-about nightlife spots, drawing both locals and travelers looking for a lively evening out in Krabi. Classified as a night club and bar, it sits in the heart of Ao Nang and regularly comes up in conversation as a go-to destination for a night out in the area.
Visitors consistently highlight the atmosphere as a standout feature, describing the vibe as energetic and well-suited for a relaxed session of drinks or a fuller night out. The venue strikes a balance between bar and club, making it a flexible option depending on what kind of evening travelers are after. That said, at least one visitor has noted it can feel overrated depending on expectations, so it may be worth visiting with an open mind rather than sky-high anticipation.
Practical details such as opening hours and pricing are not readily available online, so travelers are advised to check locally on arrival or ask at their accommodation for the latest information. Ao Nang has a well-established tourist strip, and Centre Point is easy enough to find at its address on Tambon Ao Nang. As with most nightlife venues in the area, arriving later in the evening will generally offer the best atmosphere.

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars
Know the Closing Times
Legal closing time is 2 AM for most venues, though enforcement varies. In Bangkok's designated entertainment zones (RCA, Silom Soi 2/4, Khao San), some clubs stay open until 4 AM. Islands tend to be more relaxed about hours.
Buy Bucket Drinks Cautiously
Island bucket drinks (mixed spirits in a small bucket) are cheap and fun but notoriously strong and inconsistent. Stick to one, stay hydrated, and never leave your drink unattended at beach parties.
Arrange Your Ride Home
Use Grab (ride-hailing app) to get home safely — taxis outside nightlife areas late at night often refuse meters. Set up the app before going out, and keep your phone charged.
