With a landscape that ranges from verdant jungle to white-sand beaches, Koh Phangan caters to nature lovers just as much as dawn-till-dusk ravers. The island is known for its world-famous Full Moon Party, the beach party that draws tens of thousands of travellers every month for its fire-throwing dancers, UV paint and night-long music. Complete with turquoise-blue Andaman Sea views, Koh Phangan's a classic bucket-list destination on Southeast Asia's backpacking circuit.
You'll find hostels in Koh Phangan where you can hop straight from bed to the poolside. Travellers can also choose from rustic huts nestled in the jungle or hostels with social communal areas right on Haad Rin Beach, home to the Full Moon Party. After a run of late nights, Koh Phangan hostels with post-party pick-me-ups like free breakfasts and coffee make those lazy mornings all the more indulgent.
