Ko Po Da Nai
Ko Po Da Nai is an island located off the west coast of Thailand in Krabi Province. It is part of the Mu Ko Poda group, which falls under the administration of the Hat Nopharat Thara-Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park. Travelers visit this location for its natural beach environment and coastal scenery.
Getting There
The island is situated approximately 8 kilometers from Ao Nang. Access is by boat, typically via long-tail boats or speedboats. Depending on the departure point and vessel speed, the journey generally takes between 15 to 30 minutes from the mainland coast.
