Sunset in Ao Nang

The sun sets over the Andaman Sea off the western coast of Krabi, painting the sky in deep oranges and pinks behind the limestone karsts. It is a genuinely spectacular sight, and dining during golden hour is one of the most memorable experiences Ao Nang offers.

Timing Your Dinner

Sunset in Ao Nang typically falls between 6:00 PM and 6:45 PM, depending on the season. To catch the best of it, arrive at your restaurant by 5:30 PM and order drinks before your food. The sky changes colour over about 20 minutes — you want to be settled and unhurried when it happens.

Dishes That Match the Occasion

Lobster Thermidor

For a romantic dinner, Lobster Thermidor is an event in itself. A whole grilled lobster with mustard cream sauce and Parmesan — it is as indulgent as Ao Nang gets.

Mixed Seafood Platter for Two

Perfect for couples. Crab, prawns, fish and squid — share everything as the sky changes around you.

Cocktails to Start

A Mango Mojito or Lychee Martini at sunset is something you will be talking about for years.

"The best sunsets are the ones shared over good food and cold drinks."
