About

Koh Phangan is famous for the Full Moon Party, but there's so much more. Beyond the beach raves, you'll find yoga retreats, wellness centers, secret beaches, and authentic fishing villages. The north and east coasts are peaceful paradise while Haad Rin goes wild once a month.

Top Highlights

1Full Moon Party - Legendary beach rave at Haad Rin. Arrive early, stay safe.
2Thong Nai Pan beaches - Twin bays on the northeast, peaceful and stunning.
3Bottle Beach - Only accessible by boat or jungle hike, worth the effort.
4Than Sadet Waterfall - National park with royal history and swimming holes.
5Yoga and detox retreats - Orion, Samma Karuna, and The Sanctuary.

Things to Know

•Avoid Haad Rin area unless you want parties - the rest of the island is chill.
•Book accommodation months ahead for Full Moon Party dates - prices triple.
•Rent a scooter but be careful - the roads are steep and often unpaved.
•The secret beach parties (Jungle, Half Moon) require advance tickets.
•Ferry from Koh Samui takes 30 mins - from Surat Thani takes 2.5 hours.
•Sri Thanu is the wellness hub - yoga, vegan food, and spiritual vibes.
