Adventure Tour :

Although Koh Phangan gained global notoriety for its Full Moon Party, it has long been a popular destination with nature lovers and adventure seekers from around South East Asia. Several great Kings of Thailand have visited the magnificent waterfalls at Than Sadet National Park and Koh Phangan is part of the volcanic chain of islands that make up the Samui Archipelago; which includes Angthong National Marine Park, the setting for the book The Beach, by Alex Garland.

Koh Phangan is Thailand's fifth largest island and has many beautiful aspects to explore. Ninety percent of the interior of the island is mountainous, with lush green peaks offering picturesque views across Koh Phangan and out to the neighbouring islands. There are also numerous waterfalls and a great variety of wildlife, including Taquart - giant monitor lizards, white owls and three species of monkey.

Koh Phangan also has some of the regions best and least crowded dive sites, with Koh Ma National Marine Park and Sail Rock within easy reach. The rich coral reef that lines the west coast of the island is vibrant with harmless marine life and attracts scuba divers and snorkelling enthusiasts alike.

The north of the island has become a lot more accessible since the northwest concrete ring road was completed and the road to the nearby bay of Had Khom was patched up. Koh Pha Ngan has been expanding its road network and the newly concreted North-West ring road has created a more vibrant feel with more visitors to the area.

Chaloklum BeachThe main northern village of Chaloklum is expanding to cater for more than just the fishing trade that it's well known for. It is still mainly a Thai village that hasn't yet been over-effected by tourism and there is a wealth of cheap Thai restaurants serving tasty fresh squid and other local catches; but the place is also getting a bit of a funky feel with the opening of some cool bars and cafes including Cafe Del Mar, an open air club / bar in the village.

The Chinese Temple, ChaloklumThere a couple of Wats (Temples) in the area, the most interesting being the Chinese Temple situated on a hillside with views over the bay not far south from Chaloklum Bay Resort and within easy reach from Chaloklum Town.

Recently refurbished with a bigger bar, restaurant and cosmic dancefloor, it goes ballistic every Friday to thumping trance and driving techno. Their parties around Full Moon attract up to 1000 people, whilst in between numbers drop to around 200.
