About Us
Learn about our story, our team, and our commitment to providing world-class rock climbing experiences at Railay Beach.
Our Story
Founded in 2010, Railay Rock You started with a simple mission: to share the incredible climbing opportunities of Railay Beach with the world. What began as a small operation with just two instructors has grown into one of Thailand's premier rock climbing schools.
Our founder, Somchai, fell in love with climbing on these very cliffs as a teenager. After training abroad and earning international certifications, he returned home to create a world-class climbing school that combines local knowledge with international safety standards.
Today, we've introduced thousands of climbers—from complete beginners to seasoned professionals—to the magic of Railay's limestone cliffs. Our commitment to safety, professionalism, and passion for climbing remains at the heart of everything we do.
