Location

Koh Phangan is an island in the Gulf of Thailand. It’s known for its long, white-sand beaches and its full moon parties, but it’s also a popular destination for divers. The island has several smaller islands nearby, including Koh Samui and Koh Tao.

Flying into koh samui

There are several flights daily from Bangkok, Phuket and Chiang Mai, but if you’re coming from Europe or the U.S., it’s probably easiest to fly into Bangkok and catch a connecting flight from there. There are some direct International flights into Koh Samui. 

Once in Koh Samui, you can take a ferry to Koh Phangan. We also have a sister resort, Explorar Koh Samui, where you can stay and explore both islands.

once in koh phangan

Getting a transfer from either pier on Koh Phangan is easy and quick. There are two piers on the island: Thongsala and Haad Rin. Thongsala is approx 30-40 min taxi from the Pier to Explorar Koh Phangan, Haad Rin is approx 5-10 min.

If you have booked hotel transfers you will find our friendly crew waiting for you with your name. If not, no problem you can easily walk across the street from the pier to find a taxi.
