Bamboo Beach Club Krabi
Beachfront bar and club in Ao Nang with an infinity pool, open daily from morning through to a lively evening party scene.
Ao Nang runs this list, with six of the ten sat along that beach strip and the rest split between Krabi town and one beachfront grill over on Railay West. Bamboo Beach Club takes the top spot, though the smaller town bars like Ole and Booze are just as good and quieter. Prices skew cheap where they're listed.
