Kohpangan is a natural paradise with many swaying palms and crystal clear turquoise waters.
You can find the island in the middle of the Samui Archipelago, Koh Panghan is perfectly situated in the near of most popular locations such as Ang Thong archipelago and Koh Tao. The easy to reach National Marine Park is composed of over 40 tiny islands, with many pristine beaches and surrounded with tranquil salt water.
Simmilar to it's neighbour island Koh Tao, this island was first found by hippies seeking an escape from the more developed island of Koh Samui and since a few years, Phangan has a large number of options for activities, bars and clubs, resorts and alternative yoga resorts.
The island offers big choice of bungalows, with small bungalows near the jungle to exclusive air-con fully serviced bungalows with hot water, spacious balcony and large garden area. You can find a good overview of all budget ranges of resorts on Koh Phangan on www.PhanganBungalows.com.
Surrounded by crystal clear waters, Koh Phangan has naturally become in the grown into a scuba divers favorite destination in Asia.
Some people have in mind that Koh Phangan is just another heaven for backpackers or young people and everything focused on the Fullmoon Party on Had Rin beach. But Phangan is a large island and the party is just a relative small part of the island.
