Most people prefer to use the Internet in order to learn all about Koh Phangan and local place to stay. A useful website to get information on Phangan, is PhanganIsland.com For those of you who find Koh Samuimuch too overdeveloped or much too busy with not much nature left, Ko Phangan is the best island to experience a relaxed time in Southern Thailand. Kohpangan offers to the visitor natural beaches and waterfalls, a few of them are reachable by a treck over jungle paths or taking a taxi boat. For a accommodation at a quite beach, please have a look at Haad Thian on the west side a secluded and small place, there you find only one resort.
