Nightlife in Railay Beach West in Krabi, Thailand

The nightlife in Railay Beach West in Krabi, Thailand is a bit more rambunctious than that in Railay Beach East. With its gorgeous sunsets amid mangrove forests and limestone cliffs, it’s a rallying point for all those loving the beauty of Mother nature at one of her most spectacular moments of the day. For all of its activity, at sunset the beach becomes very quiet.

Nightlife in Railay Beach West in Krabi, Thailand

Railay Beach West is where it’s happening, with its impromptu fire dances and parties, including full, half-, and black moon parties. Those loving late night get-togethers will love this beach. Here are two of its more popular hangouts.
  • Utopia International Delights – This establishment has everything for anyone wanting to be entertained in a variety of ways. At 7 p.m. every night, a free movie is shown on its large screen. Once a week, it hosts  “Texas Hold’em” poker games. Want a tattoo or a yoga lesson? Here’s the place to go. Oh, and it’s also a restaurant.

The menu features Thai, western, Italian, and Indian cuisines. The restaurant is famous for its Indian specialties from the Bharat subcontinent, including vegetable, chicken, or lamb samosas, and chick tikka with onions and mint chutney.
The structure itself is pure southern Thai, built of driftwood, bamboo and miscellaneous materials. Nonetheless, it remains one of the most popular and frequented places on the beach.
Utopia International Delights, located in the central part of Railay, opens at 10 a.m. and closes late.
  • Flame Tree Restaurant – For all the raucous goings-on in Railay Beach West, this restaurant is pretty laid back. It’s always busy, but it’s a favorite place to go at sundown. The drink menu boasts 57 different cocktails. It also has a full breakfast, lunch and dinner menu, with a smoothie booth and coffee shop. The restaurant itself is constructed of typical southern Thai materials – driftwood, bamboo, steel poles, and a corrugated iron roof.

Although located in the middle of West Railay Beach, it is considered a bit secluded. As a result, the prices there are somewhat ahigher than at other Railay restaurants.
Flame Tree Restaurant opens at 8 a.m. and closes late.
