ABOUT KOH PHANGAN

Located in south east of the country, at the gulf of Thailand, Koh Phangan is a magical island of freedom and serenity. It is the perfect place to stop everything for a brief moment and dive into a reality totally different from what you are used to.

Wild nature, beautiful unspoiled beaches, simple and loving people, free and liberated atmosphere and a strong feeling of where was I all this time. You can find everything you really need here: beautiful diving sites, great authentic Thai food, parties and advanced yoga and retreat centres. A harmonious mixture of body and soul.

Koh Phangan is spiritual and authentic. It is a place of simplicity, of fine tuning, of details that usually slips from our attention. It’s a place to reflect and be grateful for just being. Phangan is an island of joy, an island of wonderful rides in beautiful trails on an old motorbike, profound experiences and mind blowing interactions. It is full of crazy amazing sunrises and stunning sunsets. It is the perfect place to deeply relax or totally get wild. That is for you to decide.
