Haad Rin

Located at the south tip of the island, this is the home venue for the monthly famous Fullmoon parties.
The congested streets around the beach are full with restaurants, shops and bars catering for the largely young crowd. You are likely to meet here the usual suspects, Euro teens, Australians bored with Bali, and the post army Israelis.
If you are on the look for cheap thrills and in general just want to drink, party, get stoned, drop the occasional pill, puke and piss in the water and then swim in the same spot at the day after with someone you fell in love with just the night before, this is the place for you.
You can also surf there if it is your lucky waves day, but who cares.
