Koh Phangan InformationKoh Phangan is another ideal destination for the travelers who prefer less crowded, more private beaches set in a laid-back atmosphere. However, this is also a very hip place to be as the island hosts the world famous, and perhaps the biggest beach party on this planet – The full moon party on Hat Rin. Covering an area of 191 square kilometers, Koh Phangan is located 20 kilometres directly north of Koh Samui, or approximately 100 kilometres from Suratthani mainland. Interesting attractions include secluded and virgin beaches around the island, a hilltop temple called Wat Khao Tham (ideal for meditation), Than Sadet Waterfall, and the Namtok Phaeng National Park. Renting a motorcycle to explore the island is recommended as there are a lot of things to see and do. Koh Phangan was before the backpackers’ destination, Nowadays a 'more mixed range' of visitors arrives here. One thing most of them have in common is they want to find a relaxed and easy going place. One exemption might be the Full moon party when Haad Rin Nok transforms to a dance-floor made of sand. If you don't want to participate or even listen to the music, don't worry. Koh Phangan is a relatively large island, so you can easily find a quiet place here, even when the moon is round.The beaches on Koh Phangan are still some of the best in the Gulf of Thailand, and remain more popular for people wishing to avoid the crowds of Thailand beaches. Not all have been developed, so there are still those quiet deserted beaches which can be very attractive. There is also snorkelling to be done, with many beaches having live-coral formations. You could book Koh Phangan Hotels here.
