Near Bangkok

About an hour North of Bangkok near Saraburi is some bouldering. With most of the problems created by Bangkok climbers (with some help from Chris Sharma) it gets mixed reports.

Langsak in Uthai Thani apparently has some bouldering also.

Krabi

Although this area is famous for climbing there is some bouldering. This can be found near "Defile" in the book, it simply consists of a short wall that stays dry in the rain. You can also boulder on Ton Sai beach but the quality of the short routes here probably makes it worth tying in. I would say that as the dedicated boulderer give Krabi a miss, but if you are climber who likes a bit of the short stuff, it can be found.

The Similan Isles

Before I moved to Bangkok in 1997 I went out and purchased the Thailande escalades rock climbing guide. Although hopelessly out of date and half in French it is a well put together book and really wet my appetite for a move away from the UK. The guide refers to good bouldering on the eighth Island on the Similans, with the granite boulders rising to 15m. I would love to hear from anyone who has been there.

Elsewhere

I don't know of any other areas, but maybe you do. I would love to hear from you. simonfoley at simonfoley.com

Koh Tao

This area will be done much more justice by www.zengecko.com than I could ever do. I have been there a couple of times, once with my boots. I did not manage to find any of the appetising projects outlined on zengecko but like the Similan Isles a return visit is on the cards.Some friends of mine took a holiday here in July 2002. These photos were taken at the time.
