Krabi Festivals
Krabi
Berk Fah Andaman
This festival takes place in November and celebrates the
opening of the tourist season in Krabi. Watersport
competitions, caltural shows, and good-natured fun are the
schedule.
The Setting Adrift of the Chao Le Boats
takes place on Ko Lanta during the full moon night of the
sixth and eleventh lunar months. This is a religious rite
performed by Sea Gypsies or "Chao Le" who gather on the
beach near Ban Saladan Village.
They dance their famous "rong ngeng" round the boats to be
set adrift. Ceremonies feature singing and dancing. The
reason for the fest is to bring prosperity and happiness to
the participants.
