The coastline of Koh Pha Ngan is rather large, and therefore a choice of beaches is just huge. One of the busiest and most visited beaches of the island is Haad Rin beach. It’s very popular among fans of bright noisy discos and parties. If the day on the beach is relatively calm, in the evening the situation changes dramatically. Every evening there are interesting entertainment, discos and theme parties; fun on the coast lasts until dawn.

Among the largest and most picturesque coastal parts Haad Yao beach should be mentioned. The length of this sandy beach is more than a kilometer; the coast is quite wide. There you can enjoy sunbathing, as well as try some sports entertainment. Dense palm groves attracting walkers begin just at the coast.

Several hundred years ago, Haad Salad beach was a haven of pirates. Today that’s a favorite vacation place of island guests.
