Half-Day Rock Climbing Course at Railay Beach by King Climbers

About this experience

Climb the giant limestone karst of Railay Beach in Krabi rising from the warm turquoise ocean on a half-day course and enjoy the breathtaking views over the Andaman Sea. After the class swim out and see coral and colourful fish just a few metres off the stunning sandy beaches of Railay West or Phra Nang Cave.

What to expect

Whether you are a novice climber, an expert climber, or somewhere in between, you will surely enjoy climbing the cliffs of Railay. This spot, located on a peninsula accessible only by boat from Ao Nang or Krabi town, offers routes of world-class quality, including single and multi-pitch climbs, right on the beach. The karst topography of Krabi can seem otherworldly, with its tall spires of limestone and exposed cliffs, it is truly a climber's paradise. The rock is all limestone and part of the world’s largest coral reef, stretching from China down to Papua New Guinea. During your course, you will be instructed by a professional and certified climber and spend time top rope climbing, bouldering, rappelling, and much more. You will be able to choose from 700 routes, ranging in skill level. All routes are graded and bolted.
