Exploring Koh Phangan - What is it REALLY like?! Thailand Travel Vlog

KOH PHANGAN, THAILAND | What's Koh Phangan like? I'm on a solo adventure around the island of Koh Phangan, Thailand to see for myself! Infamous due to its full moon beach parties, Koh Phangan also has another side to it, found in the wellness and spiritual community on the island. I explore the Koh Phangan via scooter to visit some of it's most recognised spots and share with you, my initial thoughts on Koh Phangan.

    Is it easy enough to get rides around the island? My husband and I both aren't sure we want to rent motorbikes. We'll be there in March!

    Hi 👋🏼 yes you can always get a Songthaew, the pickup trucks that are constantly driving up and down the island. You will be able to wave these down or organise a pickup from your hotel. There are plenty of day tour offers around the island as well, including 4WD tours to the jungle 😊

    have you ever driven a motor bike or a big scooter? are you experienced? if not leave it, just dont do it. there are so many accidents, really a lot. then you have to take a songtaew which can be super pricey. depends on day / night time and how many people are in the taxi. if you are only 2 people you have to pay the whole taxi...or wait till more people come. a ride from north to south can get up to 1000 Baht. 1500 Baht in the night.

    What's Koh Phagnan like? Well, it's quite hot and humid right now (compared to Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai). Today is January 2, 2024.

    It’s hot & humid too! 😆 at least when we were there. A lot of rain too. But otherwise it’s a cool island, lots to see & do and many nice cafes etc worth a visit!

    Petrol station is not only way cheaper, it is way better petrol (real petrol and not filled with water) and you gonna get 1 litre if you paid for 1 litre. In these glass bottles are 750 ml maximum.

    Or, support your local person trying to make 10 baht on a litre of petrol and eek out a living. Same thing happens in Goa, never had a problem with street fuel in either. Western people live a life of privilege, we get to go see their world, but they can never come see ours. 10 baht is nothing to us but makes a difference to the locals. 👍

    lol...if you ride a bike with water in the petrol the engine will die very soon. Thats a fact. Point. I like supporting locals but not at the cost of killing my 10.000 Euro bike. Easy as that@@R-Tap
