Ao Nang LandMark Beach

The north end of Ao Nang comes alive at sunset when the lights flick on at Ao Nang Landmark, the beachfront night market by Nopparat Thara Beach. From around 5pm the smells of smoky grills, garlic and lime drift across the boardwalk as stalls fire up skewers, satay and wok-fried noodles. Blender jars thump out fruit shakes, roti carts flip crisp pancakes, and live bands warm up at the bar shacks. On some nights you’ll even hear the hype from the nearby Muay Thai stadium rolling across the sand. It’s an easy place to graze: start with grilled prawns or squid, then wander to a curry stall for a ladle over rice, finish with mango sticky rice or a banana roti. There are halal options, seafood by weight, and the occasional wild-card bite (crocodile turns up now and then). Grab a seat at the communal tables or face the beach with a cold beer or simple cocktail while the sky goes pink over Nopparat Thara. Practicalities are simple. It’s right on Route 4203 at Nopparat Thara Beach, about a 10–15 minute walk from central Ao Nang Beach, with plenty of parking if you’re on a scooter. Daily hours run 5pm–11pm, and the sweet spot is 6:30–8pm when the heat eases and the sunset show starts. Expect a relaxed mix of families, Krabi locals and backpackers fueling up before or after island-hopping. Hours last verified March 2026.
