Railay Viewpoint and Lagoon Climb (Pool Cave)
8° 0.4′ N · 98° 50.4′ E · approximate
A steep, rope-assisted scramble up the cliff from the path between Railay East and Phra Nang to a viewpoint over both bays and down into a hidden lagoon in the heart of the peninsula.
Practical
Position approx: the trailhead area on the path between East Rai Lei and Tham Phra Nang, interpolated between the Pilot's Railay East waypoint and the Princess Cave; follow the path signs. The Pilot describes an almost vertical climb with ropes, not suited to the unfit. Go early in the morning before the heat and wear shoes with grip.
