Ko Phangan rises 630 meters above sea level, featuring white sand beaches, dense tropical forests, and clear waters along its 40-kilometer coastline.

King Rama V visited Ko Phangan fourteen times during his reign, while archaeological findings indicate human settlements dating back over 2000 years.

The Full Moon Party at Haad Rin beach brings together thousands of visitors each month for music performances, fire shows, and beach celebrations.
