About Ko Phangan
Ko Phangan: Gulf Island Beyond the Full Moon
Ko Phangan sits in the Gulf of Thailand, 15 km north of Ko Samui and reachable by ferry from Surat Thani in roughly 2.5 hours. The island covers 168 km² and holds two distinct coastal characters: the east coast's sheltered Haad Rin beach, host to the monthly Full Moon Party since 1987, and the quieter northwest bays of Chaloklum and Mae Haad, preferred by divers and long-stay travelers.
Where to Stay
Accommodation concentrates around Haad Rin, Thong Sala (the main port town), and the northern headland near Bottle Beach. Properties range from beachfront bungalows to hillside pool villas. Rates drop significantly outside high season (December–March).
Practical Tips
- Getting there: Daily ferries run from Ko Samui (45 min) and Surat Thani pier (2.5 hrs).
- Getting around: Songthaew shared taxis cover main roads; motorbike rental suits remote beaches.
- Timing: Book well ahead for Full Moon Party weekends — accommodation fills weeks out.
