Our first stop of the day is the Emerald Pool. This natural pool can be found in the Thung Teao Forest Natural Park. The journey to the Emerald Pool is an adventure in itself, taking you through dense jungles and winding pathways that lead to a beautiful natural crystal-clear pool. First, we take a short walk through the dense forest on a wooden pathway towards the water. You will definitely know you’re there once you see the clear turquoise water that seems almost surreal against the backdrop of the jungle.
Enjoy the surroundings and be sure to experience the water as well! Take a refreshing dip and feel the stress of everyday life melt away. The water is comfortably warm, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and rejuvenation. The pool is also known for its therapeutic properties, believed to soothe and invigorate the body.
Hot Springs
After enjoying the Emerald Pool, we continue by air-conditioned minivan to the nearby Krabi Hot Spring, offering a complete contrast to our first stop. Here, the natural wonder is not a pool of water but a warm spring that bubbles up from deep below the surface.
The Krabi Hot Spring is a series of natural thermal baths formed by the flow of warm underground water. The water’s mineral-rich content is believed to have healing properties, making it a perfect getaway if you are looking for relaxation and wellness. As you sit in one of the stone-carved bathtubs, you’ll feel the lovely warmth of the water. This sensation is incredibly soothing and has a calming effect on the senses. The natural minerals in the water are said to have therapeutic benefits, making this experience not just enjoyable but also beneficial for your well-being. This tour cannot be missed during your trip in Krabi. This trip is also available as a full day tour including a visit to the Tiger Cave Temple.

The Half Day Emerald Pool & Hot Spring Waterfall Tour was a mixed experience, but definitely with some highlights. The hot springs were by far the best part—very relaxing and soothing! The minivan pick-up was smooth and easy, which set the tone for a comfortable day.
The Emerald Pool, however, was much too crowded, and the water didn’t feel as clean as expected. The edges of the pool were very slippery, making it hard to get in and out safely. I highly recommend wearing the rubber coral socks you should get yourself, as they help prevent to get hurt on rocks for instance. There’s also a small staircase in the middle of the pool that makes getting in and out a lot easier.
The walk to the Blue Lagoon was pleasant, but you’re only given time to take photos, not swim, as the sand there sinks.
The tour ended with a stop at a large restaurant for a light meal. It wasn’t anything amazing, but it was a good opportunity to relax and refuel.
Overall, the hot springs were amazing, but the crowded Emerald Pool and limited time at the Blue Lagoon held the tour back a bit. Still, a solid experience!
