[2025 Koh Phangan Attraction] Travel Guide for Ko Pha Ngan (Updated Mar)

If you want to catch one of the most beautiful sunsets ever, don't miss this destination - Thailand, Koh Phangan! All these pics were taken in Koh Phangan, the hotel is Vannee Golden Sands resort. There are many beaches in Koh Phangan, to visit all of them you definitely need to rent a bike (but be careful,the roads can be tricky). Vannee Golden Sands Resort is super crowded during full moon festival, but if you go there before or right after full moon festival,you can enjoy it to the best! #bestsunset #thailand #kohphangan #sunset #travelinspiration

#Beach #Seascape #100 Ways to Travel #Thailand Island Hopping #Island Travel #fullmoon #fullmoonparty #Music Festival Koh Phangan in southern Thailand is world-famous for the world's three major electronic music "Full Moon Party" and is also a favorite destination for backpackers around the world! I opened it when it was a not-so-famous island. I was deeply fascinated by the endless sea, the beach as fine as flour, and the undeveloped sense of adventure on a quasi-uninhabited island💕 🌟 Phangan has two sister islands: Koh Samui in the south and Koh Tao in the north. Both are popular attractions, but I personally feel that Phangan is the right way to explore Thailand’s islands and young people! 🌟 There are mostly European and American tourists here, and those who don’t like electronic music parties just use it as a beach vacation; the long beach of Tongsala Bay, the blue water is particularly beautiful during the peak season from April to September every year, and you can swing on Malibu beach🥰 🌟Full Moon Party is popular among the minority, and is often accompanied by the stereotyped and negative impression of drug use and debauchery. In fact, the truth is that you can simply listen to music, drink beer, and lie on the beach to enjoy the moonlight. In addition to discovering that Koh Phangan is better than Koh Samui In addition to being much more beautiful, the full moon party also opened my eyes to a simple and boring life👍 💯No matter how Thailand develops, Koh Phangan will always be my favorite Thai island. There are no large-scale performances, no Cowboy Street, no Shopping Mall, and no old people with Go Go boys (or girls) all over the streets. White people, rent a motorcycle and ride around the island. It will be much easier than you think. Recommended❤️

Koh Phangan, Thailand 🇹🇭 #summerdestinations #kohphangan is one of the most different islands in Thailand - on the one hand it has a sense of freedom and infinite peace, and on the other hand it is the home of the biggest parties 🎉 that take place in Thailand - the "#fullmoon" 🌝 parties, an event that attracts tourists from all around the world 🌍. Koh phangan is the #Island for everyone! Families 🧑🧑🧒🧒 will find amazing beaches ⛱️ and pampering hotels, #young people will party until dawn 🌅. Between the parties the island becomes very calm and it is not crowded - which allows time to explore and discover 🧑🌾 the most beautiful places on the island. It is recommended to rent a #motorbike 🛵. You can dance in one of the discos 🪩🕺on the #Island , sit in pubs 🍻 and restaurants on the ##beach 🏖️. In my opinion, the best area to stay in the island is Srithanu. Enjoy Koh phangan 🫶

The newest cafe on Koh Phangan, Indigo Specialty Coffee & Bakery, the second branch in Thong Sala, after the great success of the first branch in Hin Kong. The owner is an Israeli with a Thai wife. The decoration is in a tropical style, mainly indigo blue. Most of the customers here are foreigners because there are many breads and bakery to choose from. The taste is very delicious. We tried the Canele, a croissant with a buttery aroma and meringue that is not too sweet. Eat it with hot cappuccino. But if anyone wants a healthy breakfast, they also have a vegan menu.

When you arrive at Koh Phangan, it would be a shame to only explore the city. We booked accommodation at Haad Yuan and took a hotel shuttle to get there. Haad Yuan is close to Haad Rin and can be reached by boat or car. Haad Yuan is a relatively peaceful beach, not as crowded as the city beaches. Foreigners usually visit during party events, but on regular days, the beach is quite serene and beautiful. It boasts a stunning beach and hiking trails that offer enjoyable views. The scenery is fantastic, and the local restaurants, like Bamboo Hut, serve delicious food. Activities to do: - Hiking - Watching the sunset - Swimming - Partying - Yoga

Koh Pha Ngan really is a unique island, the south is very popular with party people wanting to be around the beach for the full moon parties 🌕 But also the island has a big wellness movement. With lots of healing centres and Yoga schools. My suggestion would be: 🧘 Go to a Yoga class - for all abilities 💃 Ecstatic dance evening, sober dancing with a fire, no talking! 🔈 Try one of the sound healing events and feel the vibrations in your body 🥗 Visit HEXAGON for food, it’s a great place, super tasty food! 🌅 Watch the sunset on Zen Beach - some of the best views 🏍️ Hire a bike to get around the island. It’s very hilly and so much to explore all over the island 🌮 Visit the Sunday markets in Mae Head Beach for great street food Ask any questions in the comments below ❓ #island #island #travel #beachlife #thingstodo #thailand

I think people definitely have a particular idea about this party island… But it’s a massive island, and there are so many opportunities to relax!

I’ve spent six nights absolutely relaxing and recharging on the beach, in the pool, in my hammock… And it’s been so brilliant! It’s so important to recharge when you’re travelling!

#songkran2024 Just returned from an amazing spring break on Koh Phangan, and I'm already missing the island vibes! 🏝️☀️ Koh Phangan, located in the Gulf of Thailand, is famous for its stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife, and laid-back atmosphere. And the best part? There's no entrance fee to visit the island—just hop on a ferry and you're there! ⛴️🌴 From the moment I arrived on Koh Phangan, I was enchanted by its natural beauty. The beaches here are simply breathtaking, with soft white sand and crystal-clear waters that are perfect for swimming and sunbathing. 🌊🏖️ I spent my days lounging on Haad Rin Beach, soaking up the sun and taking in the stunning ocean views. But Koh Phangan isn't just about beaches—it's also known for its legendary Full Moon Parties! 🌕🎉 These epic all-night beach parties are held every month on Haad Rin Beach and attract revelers from all over the world. With fire dancers, live music, and neon paint everywhere, it's an experience like no other. During the day, I explored some of Koh Phangan's other attractions, like the magical Phaeng Waterfall and the serene Than Sadet National Park. 🏞️🌿 And for a taste of island culture, I visited the charming fishing villages of Chaloklum and Thong Sala, where I sampled delicious seafood and browsed the local markets. 🦐🍜 One of the highlights of my trip was taking a boat tour to the nearby islands of Koh Tao and Koh Nang Yuan. 🚤🏝️ These islands are known for their incredible snorkeling and diving spots, and I was blown away by the vibrant coral reefs and colorful marine life that I encountered beneath the waves. 🐠🐙 Overall, my time on Koh Phangan was nothing short of incredible, and I can't wait to come back and explore more of this beautiful island paradise! 🌟🇹🇭 #KohPhangan #Thailand #IslandParadise #FullMoonParty

Attractions - the beaches are the main attractions as well as some conservation areas. There is the opportunity to sea some monkeys on some of the surfaces of the rocks. Hotels - we stayed in a lovely guest house on the island that had smaller villas but there are also luxury hotels with private beaches available too Food & Restaurants - there are lots of different food and restaurants on offer but most are local Thai dishes and very nice.

🌅Koh Kram This is an island near Pattaya that is easily overlooked by tourists. The entire island is lush with trees, uninhabited, and the beaches on the island are designated as turtle conservation areas. With no other human destruction and pollution, it is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing. 🌅Koh Samet The entire Koh Samet is a national park. Koh Samet is close to the coastline of the Rayong area, surrounded by coral reefs. There are many activities on Koh Samet at night, and the fire dance show on the beach is worth watching. 🌅Koh Mun Nork If you are particularly looking forward to a unique natural atmosphere with only the sky and the sea, Koh Mun Nork can satisfy you. This is a private island with only one resort on the island, and the round trip between the island and the mainland can only rely on the resort's private boats. 🌅Koh Phayam Forbes magazine once rated Aow Yai beach on Koh Phayam as the most beautiful beach in Asia, but what is really fascinating here is its quaint and quiet old-time atmosphere. The slow pace of life seems to take you back to the old seaside fishing village. 🌅Koh Tao Koh Tao is one of the most popular diving spots in Thailand. The underwater world here is extraordinarily exciting: barracuda, grouper, scorpionfish, clownfish, eels, corals, and even turtles and whale sharks, you may encounter them when diving. 🌅Koh Phangan There are three particularly famous full moon party venues in the world, and Koh Phangan is one of them. The all-night revelry and the full moon party that straddles the edge of black and white attract more and more Chinese people to explore this island. 🌅Koh Kradan In various articles like 'Thai islands you can't miss', Koh Kradan will be listed. In addition to having perfect waters for diving, there are also two famous beaches on the island, Paradise Beach and Sunset Beach. 🌅Koh Tarutao The meaning of Koh Tarutao in Malay is 'old, primitive, mysterious'. Some people will visit the abandoned prison as one of the adventure activities on the island, but more people are still more fascinated by the island's pristine scenery. Ao Son Beach is known as the most beautiful beach on the island, especially at sunset, the entire sky and the sea in front of you are dyed with a fantastic smoky red color. 🌅Koh Adang There are two waterfalls on the island, the east side of the island is a 200-meter-long white beach, and surprisingly, there is also a high-quality black beach on the island. The sea is full of coral reefs and other corals, including marine life living along the coral reefs: such as starfish, sea urchins, rock salt fish, mud fish, parrotfish, etc.

Koh Phangan Koh Phangan island sits between Koh Samui and Koh Tao in the southwestern part of the Gulf of Thailand. It is easily accessible via Koh Samui international airport, followed by a 20 minutes private boat transfer or a regular ferry service. You can also reach Koh Phangan from Surat Thani mainland by ferry, arriving at Surat Thani international airport prior. Koh Phangan island is easy to get around, spanning a 40km perimeter on all sides. Ridden with intriguing beaches of its own, Koh Phangan is as beautiful to see on land as it is from the air. Koh Phangan is one of those islands in Thailand big enough to lose yourself and avoid tourist crowds; while having everything on your hands. Koh Phangan holiday experience promises an array of exciting sights, fantastic beaches, packed markets, intriguing waterfalls, and the chance to explore neighboring islands in-depth. These include boat day trips to Ang Thong National Marine Park, Koh Tao, and Koh Nang Yuan. Best time in Koh Phangan The best time to visit Koh Phangan is when dry weather prevails in full swing in the Gulf of Thailand. The hottest months are March and April. During this period, the surrounding waters are very calm, and visibility is just excellent. June through September promises warm and bright days with just the right temperature to support lounging on the beaches and islands. At the same time, Koh Phangan snorkeling season starts in March and lasts until September. There is a higher chance of snorkeling with whale sharks in nearby Koh Tao around April-May. Luckily, other famous islands within easy reach from Koh Phangan follow the same snorkeling seasonality. #kohphangan #beach #sea #sunset #thailand #backpacking #travel #trip #thailand #tourism #backpacker #wanderer #wanderlust #litely #camera #photography #travelgram #instatravel #adventure #explorebetter

Just went to Koh Phangan Fullmoon party. It was so much fun. I've been there many times. Each time it's different and different. If I have free time, I want to come every month. If anyone has never been, come and see. I guarantee it's fun. You'll want to come back again and again. Oh, I forgot. There's also a half-moon party. But this time it was on the wrong day, so I didn't go. Right now, I'm in Samui. If I have a chance, I'll post again. 😁😁

Koh Phayam, Ranong - Thailand: Another island in the south part of Thailand with less tourists. It is good for those who want to getaway from busy town. There is a motorbike for rent to explore the islsnd and a boat trip for snorkelling around the island.

[Thailand] Koh Phangan next to Koh Samui is the right way for young people to open! ! The most known to Koh Phangan is the Full Moon Party, but it is rare to know that Koh Phangan is much more beautiful than Koh Samui! ! There are many European and American tourists here, this is the sixth time I have gone. I can imagine how much I love Phangan! . Transportation: 30 minutes by boat from Koh Samui to . Hotel: It is recommended to be close to the hotel in Thong Sala Pier, because the sea is very good here. And the transportation is convenient, the restaurant is also a lot everyone usually choose to stay at the hotel on the side of the full moon party Haad Rin, but I think the water there is dirty, not good-looking, not recommended want to live in a five-star hotel You can go to Anantara . restaurant in the north of the island: there are many restaurants next to Thong Sala Pier, Japanese, Thai, Western, and Chinese. The prices are very cheap and delicious. ./ Hh/ beach: 1Tongsala bay, long and long beach, a few kilometers, the sea is particularly beautiful during the peak season from April to September every year, blue, super nice! 2Malibu beach, there are swings and lagoons, big recommendation! But there are mosquitoes over there. If you go, you must bring mosquito repellent water 3Chaloklum beach. It is a beach I found newly. There are very few beautiful people. I took a taxi from the hotel to the past 40-50rmb. This beach is not far from Malibu. Basically I am on these three beaches, haha
