Koh Phangan has loads of great restaurants and there is a sort of culture around finding the best beef burger! Here are the ones that come to our heads although we know there are many more out there. If you know of any more great burger places then let us know!
As Koh Phangan has grown into one of the biggest yoga centres on the globe, other spiritual practices have too, for they are all connected. However, as a Buddhist country, meditation in already deeply rooted in the culture and is especially practised by the Buddhist monks here.
Here specifically on Koh Phangan, we are very lucky to have some skilled quality tattoo studios and artists, ranging from traditional to modern in style with each artist having their own approach and characteristics which will suit different individuals. This is why it is so important to look around and find the right tattooist for you, one may be good for one person but not for what you want, it really helps to go around and meet the artists, see their work and style and then decide.
We talk with Elie the Co-Founder of Cospace here on Koh Phangan about a bright future that Digital Nomads could bring to Koh Phangan and the Country.
People love sunrises and sunsets, and beautiful views on Koh Phangan are aplenty for these daily events. There are so many viewpoints on the island it is not easy to choose the best one, which is not so bad, as there is never a breathtaking view too far away from you wherever you stay or live on the island.
In recent years Koh Phangan has become very family friendly. With more resorts and fully equipped hotels to choose from you can come and enjoy a wonderful family holiday with your children away from the craziness of Full Moon and backpacker culture.
Getting a Thai massage is one of the most common activities in Thailand for visitors and the country’s residents. On almost every street here you can find a Thai massage parlour. It’s one of those rights of passage for foreigners to get a Thai massage and many people will go back for regular ones each week.
Did you know that smaller shops run by the local community can in fact actually be cheaper to get the same things? Plus you will be supporting a local family rather than a corporate company. An added benefit to visiting the local Thai stores is that you have more of a chance of getting to know the owner and maybe learning something from them, you can improve your Thai and these small business owners are usually willing to help!
