Seeking trip in the close by Ang Thong National Parkcomposed of over 40 small islands blessed with pristine beaches, natural caves and the quiet Tha Laem Nai a salty water blue lagune lake shown in The Beachby Alex Garland. It seems that whatever it is you are searching for, there is something on Koh Phangan for everyone. The climate in the Kingdom of Thailandis extremely tropical, high temperature and humid. Most of the time weather condition are influenced by monsoons that make three weather seasons in Northern and Central regions of Siam and 2 seasons in south-central Thailand. Monsoon in the southern areas around May to Oct has intensive downfall and the sky is cloud covered, but in north-east monsoon around November to Mar is rainless and comparatively low temperature. Since the last 17 years, Koh Phangan has attracted an growing number of visitors. Some of them religiously find their way back each holiday to the small paradise. What kind of people are those Island enthusiasts? Actually, there is lot of reasons to visit Phangan. Even though it is tiny in geographical terms many kinds of visitors can discover their own place on Koh Phangan. If you ask me, you should definitely think about visiting Phangan.

Kohpangan's weather is the whole year beautiful. Nice weather days and a nice sea breeze are the norm. For the purists, end of December to late of March is the best vacation island experience. Kohpangan is an island of natural beauty and charm, a place, where visitors can have a holiday far anyway, kicked back and relaxed or active and fast paced. Specially for yoga freaks the island can offer some alternative places for example Ananda or the Sanctuary, yogacourses and A lot of people consider Phanganis only a island for backpackers or young people mainly visiting the island because of the Fullmoon Party on Had Rinbeach. But this is not so small and Haad Rin is just a tiny and isolated part of Koh Phangan.

No question, Koh Panghan has some of most postcard like Koh Samui in the Gulf of island of Koh Phangan. The Island is much quieter and laid back than Koh Samui, only with the exception of the Phanganis just another destination for budget traveler or partyfreaks and everything focused on the Fullmoon Party on Haad Rin beach. But this is a large island and Fullmoonis just a relative small part of Koh Phangan.
