Bird
Watching at Mangrove Forests
 Although
primarily known for the limestone karst topography of its
shoreline, Krabi is nonetheless home to a broad spectrum of
ecological environments, making it one of the most diverse
areas in the region. One of the most unique eco-systems found
in Krabi are the mangrove forests, which play a key role in
maintaining the ecological balance of the entire area. In
additon, these mangrove forests provide shelter to several
species of birds, and are thus a terrific place for bird watching.
Two of the prevalent species of birds are the sea eagle and
the ruddy kingfisher, both of which can be seen year round.
Bird watching trips can be arranged at the Chao Fah pier in
Krabi, and usually cost about 200 baht per hour, for boat
rental.
