Kai Bae is located on the west coast, between Klong Prao and Lonely Beach. This is a small village with a narrow main road in the middle of shops, restaurants, pubs, and stalls.

Kai Bai is known for its viewpoint, on top of the hill, and at the north of the village, it's overlooking the sea and the small front islands. The mailbox on this viewpoint is even maybe more famous than the viewpoint itself and it's maybe the most photographed on the island.

The sandy beach is very close to the main road and it's made of 2 parts, the north, and the south, separated by a small estuary.

During the low season, the tides are very low and it’s possible to walk up to Ko Man Nai, the closest island you can see from the south part of the beach.
And if the tide is not low enough, it’s always possible to rent a kayak to explore it. Don’t expect to be like Robinson Crusoe on Koh Man Nai, it attracts lots of other “explorers” who are looking for loneliness and a peaceful tiny beach.

Kai Bae Hut Speed Boat is located between the north and the south beaches and between Nang Nual Beach Resort and Kaibae Hut Resort.
They organise all types of speedboat trips, from a half-day trip in a private boat to “charter” trips to Koh Wai, Koh Mak, and Koh Kood.
You can find all the information on their website.

I will not name all the restaurants and places where to eat good food at a reasonable price but there are some that I really recommend.

When you arrive in Kai Bae, coming from Klong Prao, you will see Kai Bae walking street on your left with Sir Henry Morgan’s pub and Chef Bill Restaurant.
