Kohphanganis in the middle of a natural
paradisewith a lot of shady palms and crystal clear turquoise waters.
On
Koh Phangana lot of things to fill up your day. Once it's late the
island offers a active Night Life, everything from typical Karaoke bars, Pubs to real Clubs and upscale Clubs.
Located in the Gulf of Thailand
Koh Phanganis sister
island to the long time established tourist destination of Koh
Samuiwhich attracts in excess of 1.5 million tourists every year.
On contrary, as this island has so much more to show the interested visitor than just being a crazy all night party island,
Phangan has a quieter area, offering the great advantage of a secluded resort with long walks, or
yoga courses and different other day time activities.
On
Phangan there is big choice of rooms, starting from small huts near the
beachto luxury airconditioned and well equipped villas with hot water, satellite TV and dining lounge area. On the internet you can get a overview of all budget ranges of
resortson Phangan on
www.PhanganBungalows.com.
The island of
Koh Panghanis one of the country's real tropical gems. Blessed with postcard like
beachesand hidden bays, tourists from many different countries come again year after year to experience the unique feeling of the island.
Phangan was considered a
backpackersdestination, by now a different type and a mixed range of holiday makers visits the island. A tought most of them have in common, want to search a nice and easy going place. One exemption can be the
Fullmoon party when the place changes into a dancefloor.
If you like to dine out then the island has to offer many different styles of restaurants, bars and cafes catering Thai, International, Danish, English and Mediterranean dishes, something to suit everyone. And naturally of it's location a huge selection of fresh seafood which is locally caught.
If you do not like laying on one of the
beachtry out something else. Koh Phangan offers many
activitiessuchlike kite-surfing, Dirt-bike Rentals, Elephant Riding, Jungle Trekking, Diving, Muay Thai, Yoga,a Chinese Temple and Thai Cooking Lessons.
Better do a reservationearly for events like Dec 25 and the week around the
fullmoon party can be a good advice. Places like
Milky Bay Phangan and Sarikantang Resort have websites featuring reservationservice.
Situated about 12 miles from the northern side of
Samuiin the Gulf of
Thailandis the island of Koh Phangan. Being generally much more quieter and relaxed than its neighbor, with the exception of the
Full Moon beach party where between 5 - 10,000 visitors come on the island for the over crowded
full moon on the east side beach of HaadRin.
It is interesting how can quiet and frenzy can blend so amazing on the island. At one side of Phangan, you can find the never ending parties drawing young people with a wide range of music, fire works and party style.
If you a searching a private place to stay, check out HaadThian on the west side a quite nice and secluded bay, there you find only a single place to stay.
In case you are in search of a not bad
accommodation on Ko Phangan, I would like to suggest you Phrueksa Resort, not far from Thongsala, the port city on Koh Phangan. From this place you have an unproblematic access to restaurants, ATM machines and mini marts.
Like it's neighbour island Koh Tao, Koh Phangan has been first visited by tourists seeking an escape from the overcrowded Koh Samui and recently, Koh Phangan has a large number of options for activities, night life, bungalow
resortsand spas.
