Krabi Shops and Shopping

Shopping Krabi offers the visitors the perfect opportunity to find handicrafts and goods from the local Southern Thai area, favourite Thai souvenirs from Krabi being pewter ware and the more distinctly southern Thai Nielloware. Another great purchase in Krabi is Orchids, which are often sold in very tiny plastic vials with a small amount of gel that keeps them fed with nutrients. These can be kept in their vials for many months before taking them out and planting them properly and are ideal for visitors wishing to take part of Thailand’s natural beauty home.

Small shops and markets make up the shopping industry in Krabi, and you will find night markets that offer an enormous range of fresh exotic fruit to try and at great prices as well! Krabi shopping caters mainly for tourism in the area so expect the usual counterfeit goods, handicrafts and assorted beach ware in this area. You will also find more specialist shops in Krabi dealing with water sports, adventure sports and scuba diving equipment.
