    If you are in Krabi Town, start at the Krabi Walking Street (also known as Thanon Maharach). From there, head southwest towards Thanon Chaofah. Continue walking straight until you reach Pak Nam Pier. The watch tower is a short walk from the pier; head east along the waterfront and you'll find it easily. The entire walk should take approximately 20 minutes.

Once you get off, the watch tower is only about a 10-minute walk from where you will be dropped off. Just follow the waterfront path eastwards.
