Situated about 12 miles north of Samui in the Gulf of Thailand is the islandof Koh Phangan. The Islandis much quieter and laid back than its neighbor, with the exception of the Full Moonbeach partywhere between 5 - 10,000 visitors come on the island for the over crowded full moon on the east side beach of Haad Rin.
Online booking for High Season like Christmas Day and the week of full moon can be a useful advise. Resortssuchlike Sunset Coveand Sarikantanghave websites together with online reservationservice.
A place to sleep will be available everywhere on Phangan at family like resortsor beach side hotels to very sound room offers.

There are roads to HaadRin, but we have warned you that the roads are not in the best state and only if you are a good motorcycle rider then do not try to get to Had Rin, as most accidents involving motorbikes happen in this area. Our advice is to leave your motorcylce at the 7-11 at BaanTai and pay approx 60 Baht for a pick up over the hills to HadRin.
There are lots of ways to see the island, you can take a local taxi for a little amount of money,or you are experienced enough you can rent a motorbike or motorbike and do it in your own time.
