    Nice beach, lots of waves though. There is a nice spot off the beach between Buri Rasa and Panviman that has good restaurants, few shops, pharmacies, laundry, barber, nail salon, bars, vehicle rental, 7-11, and a fantastic food court with a massive selection of dishes all between about 80-150 baht. Food is great, ate there a few times.

    This beach is just as lovely as many others on Koh Phangan, lol, really. You are spoiled with choice on this island! Transport can be difficult though, there are many stunning beaches that are easier to get to.

    Cool beach with a relaxed vibe, not busy at all when we visited (april 2023)...a couple of good bars and restaurants here, you won't go hungry or thirsty here... there's a cool palmtree at the very end of the beach, grown into an impossible angle, check it out!

    Away from the main tourist area. Free entry and can be accessed from dirt track (by walking only as scooter will get stuck) or from the Bottle Viewpoint (45 min walk).
    Beach itself is gorgeous and the water is crystal clear and no marine life to hassle you. There is a volleyball net and also a bar selling food and drink, with a pool table etc.
    Absolutely recommend!

    Really soft sand, lots of space and clear water. The depth is growing smoothly: you can enjoy shallow, sandy coastal waters or go futher and dive into cool blue. Located next to the streets full of cafes, restaurants, street food and 7-11. Lots of h

    I've been to the top Muay Thai camps in Thailand and this place is exceptional. Superb teaching quality, but also flexible to accommodate beginners. A first class gym all round. When there are stadium fights you can join the teachers and other students and experience seeing pros really go at it. Easy choice.

    Nearest beach to our hotel so we came here a few times...nice sandy beach, palm trees, clear water...in short, all the tropical cliches were there :-)
    There's quite a few beach cafes here too, so no need to get hungry or thirsty
    Not crowded at all when we were here (mid april 2023)

    The water is clean with surprisingly decent snorkelling. A cool novelty to have a sand bar connecting the two islands. Good water depth for swimming with a reasonably priced bar at the beach so you can spend a little extra time there without supplies.

    Dear anyone reading this review. I booked a retreat at Shakti Yoga but am unable to attend. Shakti Yoga has very kindly given me a transferable voucher for 70% of the cost of the retreat that can be used until 31/10/23 provided there is availability on the course dates. The original cost was THB42,000. There would still be a need to pay around THB13,000 to the retreat, but given I can't attend, I am happy to donate the 70% voucher to anyone who would like to attend provided a charitable donation can be made for a portion of the value of the voucher to a mental health charity here in Thailand. I can be reached on Whats App on +66930974409 if any interest. Thanks so much and look forward to hearing from any interested people!

    I was island hopping in Thailand for six weeks with my husband and needed to work out… I visited 7 different Muay Thai gyms for the morning fitness session from 8 - 10 and its fantastic that everywhere you visit they all have a drop in class. For me it was quite scary at first but always once inside these people are just so friendly. I loved this gym so much big and airy and the fitness class was the best I experienced, really worked you hard but its up to you how hard you work also. The training staff were excellent, very friendly, smily and very professional. I did have to buy a Phanang gym vest as I was so proud of working out here… there all all the weight machines etc etc if you don’t feel like the Muay Thai class or training. Many thanks for a great experience. Pip

    Very nice beach. It's a very difficult walk from Haad Rin. Wear good shoes. Use mosquito repellent and have 2 litters of water. Walk in groups of 2-3 people. It takes more than 2 hours. Watch for weather change. No stable Wi-Fi or mobile connection. Maps me app is good for trail display.

    It's a small traditionnal fisherman village. It's quiet but it has anything you want to spend a great time: delicious thai restaurants, markets, 7-eleven, beautiful beaches... My favorite place when I stay in Koh Phangan.

We are looking for nice beaches, quiet place , swimming / snorkeling. Is Ko Phang Ngan a good place for that (when there is no full moon) - or just leave the island for party goers and stay on Samui / Tao?
Answer: 555\xa0 (Ha Ha Ha), Paul and Cassnu.... !!!

You guys don't know Samui that well then, there are lots of nice quiet beaches on Samui and it's not all commercialized!

Parts of the north coast, the west coast and south coast have just as nice beaches as KP~! IMO

The area I live now in the SW area is not a lot different that parts of KP!!! I really noticed that when I went over to KP in July.
