    Ko Phangan

    4 days / 3 nights (flexible)

Located in the Gulf of Thailand, Ko Phangan offers sparkling white sands and a laid-back atmosphere on the north-east coast of the island. Home to a hilly interior and dreamy bays, it’s a world away from the full moon parties, which take place on the other side of the island. During your stay, you can spend your time swaying in a hammock, reading a good book or heading out on the turquoise water – it’s up to you!

Day 1 – Arrival on Ko Phangan

On arrival at the pier, we’ll arrange for a transfer to meet you and take you to your accommodation on the other side of the island. You’ll stay at a resort with a swimming pool on the picture-perfect Ao Thong Nai Pan Yai Beach. We think this is one of the most serene and authentic bays on the island. The famous full moon parties are held on the other side of the island but you’ll be far enough away to not be kept up by the sounds of the party!

Day 2 -Free time

Today is free for you to do as you please. Ao Thong Nai Pan consists of two bays, both lined with powdery golden sand and a tropical jungle backdrop. In the evening you can dine at romantic candlelit restaurants on the beach, enjoying delicious fish dishes and tropical cocktails. Just sit back and indulge in island life, where the pace of life is slow, the beer is cold and temperatures are sultry.

Days 3-4 – Free time & departure

Ko Pha Ngan has a hilly green interior that you can explore independently. If you’re feeling energetic, you can hike up to the island’s highest point; Kao Ra. If you’re not in an overly active mood, just take it easy and enjoy the sunshine. The next morning you can take one last dip in the pool before checking out. We’ll arrange your transfer from your hotel back to the pier.
