Ao Nang, Krabi

www.SeeKrabi.com – We cover all of Krabi – Ao Nang, Ko Phi Phi, Krabi Town, etc. I first found this freshwater pool about 5 years ago as we visited Krabi Thailand one time. There is a kayaking area, and an elephant trekking spot in Sa Kaeo, and I was checking out the elephants and decided to keep going down the road. I found a very cool set of limestone caves, not deep, just on the surface – fun to explore though. When I walked further down the road I found this small lake. The water was fresh – not salt. It was nice… I swam in it – there are small fish, and there used to be a wooden pier to lay down on and ignore life. Then I did some research online and found out – this is the deepest freshwater lake in southeast Asia. It’s 200 meters deep. That’s 600+ feet! There are no signs. I never saw a brochure about it – there are no tours to this place. I’ve only seen one other foreign family at this place in 5 years. I’ve been here about 2 dozen times. Anyway – if you want to visit it, I’ll put a post about it at my http site under “Sa Kaeo Pool”. Will put the exact link here if I remember. Go see it – you can also climb through the caves, do elephant trekking in the best place in Krabi for trekking, and take kayaks down a freshwater spring stream (down current – little paddling) – for cheap. Sa Kaeo (Sra Gaew) is a great day trip from Ao Nang or Krabi town.
