Koh Phangan

Apart from the busy Haad Rinn Beach, Koh Phangan is much quieter than your typical Thai island. The atmosphere is more relaxed and the beaches, restaurants and travel hotspots are rarely overcrowded. Expect to see backpackers passing through, all with interesting stories to tell.

This Thai island is famous for its excellent diving hotspots and Full Moon Parties. Close to neighbouring island Koh Samui Tourists and locals come together to dance the night away under the glistening moon. This Thailand hotspot is ideal for those in large groups, who want to experience a totally unique event. Divers can enjoy a variety of exotic fish and plant life in an underwater paradise, while exploring the tropical depths. The monsoon season which runs from April to October is an exciting time to explore the island, especially if you’re looking to travel into the wilderness. A Koh Phangan holiday is always an incredible adventure.

If you’re looking to dance at the Full Moon Party on your Koh Phangan holiday, then stay at Haad Rinn Beach where the it’s held every full moon night. The party starts at dusk and continues until the sun rises. These evenings are perfect for the music lovers in your party. The best place for divers is Sail Rock, which is one of the most highly regarded diving hotspots in the Gulf of Thailand. During your stay at Sail Rock, make sure you explore the warm waters and maybe catch a glimpse of a lion fish or even a whale shark.
