Crystal Pool (Crystal Pond, Sra Morakot, Emerald Pool) in Krabi, Thailand

One of the top 10, and possibly top 5 things to do in Krabi, Thailand is this ride out to the Crystal Pool - also known as Crystal Pond, Sra Morakot in Thai, and Emerald Pool.

You can drive out to this pool made with an underground fresh spring on a rented motorbike, car, or take a tour from (http://SeeKrabi.com).

There are many places to swim or dip your feet in this Thailand National Park. There is an 800m walk to the main emerald pool or you can go exploring and take the long 1.4km (1400m) walk the long way to reach the emerald pool. There are 3 pools to see: Emerald Pool; Sra Gaew Pool; Blue Pool.

But, there are many other beautiful scenes to see along the way. There is a boardwalk and dirt path that leads you through the Krabi jungle. It is hot so you'll want to get some drinks before you start your hike. You cannot bring food into the park, so eat outside the entrance.

If you preview the first 20 seconds of this video you'll see where the exact locations of the Emerald Pool, Sra Gaew, and Blue Pool are in the video if you want to fast forward.

Krabi has many fresh water springs - some are hot, some are cool - like this one, and some are even salt water springs.

The entrance fee for foreigners is 200 Thai baht. The fee for Thai nationals is 20 THB.
