KRABI: Saline Hot Spring at Khlong Thom, Krabi Part 1

Today I visited Saline Hot Spring one of the tourist attraction in Khlong Thom district. Driving 45 kilometres from the city using Route 4 (Highway 4038- Phet Kasem Road).

The average of the hot spring water here is 45 degree celsius (or 114 degree fahrenheit) which is a safe temperature for bathing. In this area, there are 14 different public hot spring ponds. Soaking in a hot spring need not be solely reserved for a relaxing vacation or a weekend getaway. The therapeutic use of water could be just what the doctor ordered when it comes to relieving pain, stress , increasing circulation, promoting relaxation and more.

Entrance of the Hot Spring:

-20 Thai Baht For Thai people 

-100 Thai Baht For Foreigner   
  

Opening & Closing: 
5 am to 9 pm everyday

Most Thai people visit the hot spring early in the morning between 5 am to 8 am ,and again in the afternoon from 4 pm to 9 pm. For you who do not like big crowds, you should visit the place between 9 am to 4 pm. 

What to bring to the hot spring?

- Water. Stay hydrated is the key to a fun healthy day at the pool 
- Flip Flop.
- Camera. Capture the day's fun for posterity.
- Chang of clothes.
- Towel.
- Swimsuit (optional). Most People are wearing loose t-shirt and short. 
- Last but not least. Good energy!!!!

Warm feet....

For those who would like to spend more than a day at the hot spring. There are several hotels and resorts nearby. I stayed over at Saline Hot Spring Resort, the closest resort to the hot spring. It only takes less than 5 minutes walking distance to the public hot spring.

The resort itself does provide private hot spring pools outdoor as well as private hot spring pools inside the rooms. You can enjoy your bathing for 24 hours.

The concept for all rooms with private pool were bulit with Japanese style interior design. I think it really suits for honeymoon couple of lovebirds.

I really recommend this resort. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The surroundings are very pleasant. Calm and quite.......
