Our Review of Koh Phangan

  1. Flair

    Wild Full Moon parties on one end, silent yoga retreats on the other — Koh Phangan does both seriously well.

  2. Best time to visit

    January through March and July through August give you the best weather and calmest seas.

  3. How long to stay

    Plan at least five to seven days — you'll want the extra time to explore the quieter beaches in the north.

  4. Price level

    Budget to mid-range — Koh Phangan is great value and a longtime favorite with backpackers.

  5. Food

    Grab street food at the night market or a fresh coconut straight off the beach. Both are absolutely worth it.

  6. Getting around

    Rent a scooter once you're there — it's the easiest way to get around. You reach the island by ferry from the mainland or Koh Samui.
