Koh Phangan parties are famed the world over. Each month, under the cool white light of a "full moon" anywhere from seven thousand people in the off season to thirty five thousand in peak season pour out of their Koh Phangan accommodation to dance, listen and let loose. Besides Bangkok bar girls, the full moon party is probably the number one reason for Thailand’s reputation as the land of pleasure and sin. Call it Eden or call it the Asian Las Vegas, it’s somewhere in between. The image of a western tourist in a Bangkok bar, surrounded by beautiful Thai girls is pretty magnetic. It’s brought more than a few lonely men and women across the high seas. Koh Phangan parties are now played by some of the world’s biggest DJs who are more than happy relax in free accommodation on this paradise island for a few nights and play to the immense crowd. The tunes generally hover around House, Transe, Jungle and more recently Dub and Dubstep. The vibe is always high, high energy and the crowd is enormous and notoriously easy to please. |
