Tonsai Beach Phra Nang Bay
Probably the most infamous climbing location in Thailand, tonsai has around 15 crags and is situated on the same bay as Bamboo Beach, Railay East, Railay West and Pranang Beach. Here you will find plenty of climbers to team up with or chill out at the end of a good climbing day. There is also a few deep water solo walls accessibly by hiring a longtail boat for the day.
Info
Be careful. About 80% of people who stay more than 2 weeks end up with Tonsai Belly! Best eats are the street Chicken ladies where you can get papaya salad, bbq chicken and sticky rice with mango for around 100bhat. Next door Krui Thai also do nice bbq fish and for cheap thai food walk to the end of the beach for Viking Dining.
Bungalows available from 250 - 1000 baht.

Hi,
If anyone wants to climb and needs a partner I'll be on jwoodward65@hotmail.com. I haven't climbed in a while so preferably easier climbs to begin with. Though I'm happy to belay for people on harder stuff.
Cheers
