Getting there

Songthaew

To reach the Emerald Pool from Krabi Town, head to the main road (Phanom Bencha Road). Look for a songthaew (a shared taxi truck) that is heading towards Khlong Thom. The fare is usually around 50 THB. Inform the driver that you want to go to the Emerald Pool, and they will drop you off at the entrance. The ride takes approximately 40 minutes.

Long-tail Boat and Walking

If you are staying near Ao Nang Beach, you can take a long-tail boat to Klong Muang Beach, then transfer to a songthaew or tuk-tuk to Khlong Thom. The boat ride will take around 20 minutes, and the songthaew ride will take about 30 minutes. Once you arrive at the entrance of the Emerald Pool, follow the signs and walk about 1 km to reach the pool itself.

Tuk-tuk

You can hire a tuk-tuk from Krabi Town directly to the Emerald Pool. Make sure to negotiate the fare beforehand, which should be around 600-800 THB for a round trip. The journey will take about 30-40 minutes. The driver will wait for you while you explore the area.

Overview

Nestled within the Thung Teao Forest Natural Park, the Emerald Pool is a hidden paradise that showcases the stunning beauty of nature in Krabi, Thailand. The pool gets its name from the vibrant emerald color of its waters, a result of the mineral content and the surrounding lush vegetation. Tourists are drawn to this enchanting attraction for its serene atmosphere and the opportunity to soak in warm, crystal-clear waters, which are believed to have therapeutic properties. The pool is surrounded by a rich ecosystem, with walking trails that allow visitors to explore the diverse flora and fauna of the rainforest. As you meander through the trails, you'll encounter beautiful birds, butterflies, and perhaps even some playful monkeys. One of the highlights of visiting the Emerald Pool is the experience of swimming in its warm waters while being enveloped by the sounds of nature. The best time to visit is early in the morning or late afternoon to avoid crowds and fully appreciate the tranquil setting. Additionally, the nearby Blue Pool, another natural wonder, is a must-visit for those looking to capture stunning photographs and enjoy the vibrant colors of the water. The Emerald Pool is not just a swimming spot; it's an immersive experience that connects visitors with the natural beauty and serenity of Krabi, making it a perfect day trip for families, couples, and solo adventurers alike.
