About God, how do I like to remember this place) in a paradise corner called Phangan (Koh Phangan) I would love to come back again ... And today I will tell you about how we visited the thought for the first time to come to this island in Thailand, which is mostly Known by its unbridled beach parties.
When we moved away from the Andaman Sea to the Siamese bay, we outlined three islands for themselves who would like to visit. My husband is a lover of everyone there "Dvizukha", so he learning that the full moon parties are held on the Phangan, he decided that we would certainly have to be there.
Our Travel Schedule was drawn up in such a way that we are two weeks in Tsiim on Samui, and then for a week we are on Phangan (Koh Phangan). If we were then knew that the Phangan would be more interesting at times - we would not have stayed for so long on Samui. If you compare these two islands in the Plan of Rest: That on Samui we were a memorable couple of pensioners, and in Pangan a couple of hippies in the midst honeymoon. Just every island has its own energy and we felt it)
Anyway. And now about how the ordinary travelers and tourists lure on this island: after all, in fact, there is no airport in the Pohangana and therefore "Pautynikov" is not here. The people mostly arrive here in front of Full Moon Party, and linger on one to two days. And even we were not enough for the weeks (why I could have read this place so much).

How to get on Ful Moon Paty (Full Moon Party)
The leaflets in Thai tour agencies with excursions are moving advertising about the famous beach party full of the moon, and the easiest way to visit Phangan is from the nearest Island to Samui and Tao. You can do this by purchasing a ready-made tour, which includes a shuttle service on a boat or boat - speedbote. You are planted on the beach Hada Rin (Haad Rin Beach), the boat is waiting for you until the morning, to then deliver back to Samui, the approximate cost of the tour is from 200 baht. And the time you spend on pangans is limited to just one night.
We did not suit this option, we wanted to get acquainted with the island closer, so we bought a ticket to the ferry in the same tour agency and just sailed to Phangan with an open date.
We settled on the beach of Ban Tai (Ao Ban Tai Beach), removing through Hotellook a wonderful bungalow of ala-country house by the sea Blue Lotus Resort for 400 baht / day. We absolutely did not strain the flows, often happening on this beach - since we were constantly in different places of the island, exploring it on a motorbike. Then we learned that our friends remove housing much worse than our, much more at a high price.
So we spent time on the Blue Lotus Resort House Terrace On the day of the beach party, we simply slow down on the road Songtao ( public bus - Minute), which brought us from our beach Ban Tha Thai to Haad Rin Beach (Haad Rin Beach). The passage cost 100 baht per person in one direction. This is a fixed fare, regardless of what beach, where you are going on and on what day. Minibilities run on the roads every 5 - 10 minutes, and on this day - around the clock.

The most pleasant thing is to wait from the full moon party - this is what it is held on one of best beaches Islands to Phangan. Snow-white fine sand, the perfect approach to the sea without fears of damaging the legs about the corals and stones, a transparent sea driver - I can not even believe that every month this beauty is exposed to the invasion of drunk youth from around the world.
Dress Code on Full Moon Party
Special dressing code of FUL Moon Party can be considered pictures on the body using fluorescent (luminous) paint. We painted themselves, standing at the tray with paints, while rejoicing like small children (the price of such independent creativity is 20 baht). If you are not an artist or do not trust your satellites, then enterprising thais for 50 baht will decorate your face with flushing tattoos in the form of flowers and other characters.

Entrance to Full Moon Party is 100 baht per person. For this amount, you will immediately attack, which will then remain for you for a long memory. Important moment: if you eat alcohol (and otherwise you just do not place here), then it is not necessary to buy it in the territory where the beach party is held. You can bring the same bucket with whiskey, brandy and drinks with you. Thais belongs to the rouring of alcohol "with you" on Full Moon Party very loyal.

Since alcohol is consumed around in large quantities - on Ful Moon Pati, there is a special lounge zone for repeated. It is fenced with some plastic slaughter the territory, sleeping mattresses are thrown on the sand, where the youthful young people are already lying in the poses: as fell, and fell asleep. Nearby is a security guard who comes up for the safety of tourists. From the side looks like a cattle chamber, sorry, but only such associations come to me.
Our reviews about Ful Moon Pati
So, we were a friendly company a corridor from shops and the attributes presented in them in the form of masca with inscriptions and wreaths for girls. And they fell into the parties of the full moon.
Before that, on the beach of Hada Rin (Haad Rin Beach), we could not have succeeded - even though he was next to our. The road which leads to it - super mega steep (in some places the angle of the slope comes up to 50 degrees), and after this mountain serpentine you will need time to come into yourself and understand what else you need to return back.
Now, in fact, the fact that the organizers of Ful Moon Pati prepared for young people dragging here from all the ends of the world to tear off and sweating. These are the music of various styles and trends, mainly techno, R & B, House, Dance and Reggae from those invited to the festival of DJs.
You can go along the beach line, where the scenes are constructed for dancing, choose the site with you like music, will stop and dance. We even heard that there is a scene where Russian tracks perform, but did not find it.
You can still entertain yourself active games in the form of a fiery show (Fire Show), in which we have already managed to participate on. If you are under a degree, you probably know that alcohol is dulling a feeling of fear. Therefore, across the fiery rope, they wanted everything at once from our friendly company.
My husband and girlfriend went first. As a result, they received their portion of adrenaline: the shorts were moved and they began to shake themselves with Palen. After the inspection, it turned out that the husband had a burning plant and a burn was left on the back of the head, but the girlfriend had a healthy part of the hair. The next party - consisting of me and husband of girlfriend go jumping changed.
Phangan Tatu for the memory of Full Moon Party By the way, if you still do not know who is broken at such parties in full - these are young parents. Such as we are mammies and dads, vacationing from family life and do not seem old old people.
We did not stay at this event until the final end (i.e., until the morning), since after a few hours all this hype begins to bother. Slightly snack - on Ful Moon Pati you can eat: Cafes, street vendors and shops 7/11 work. Then they went to the bus stop, where the same couples came to the minibus - Songteo.
I will not describe return trip home. I just say that he was in a more unpleasant company - as in the cabin car there were a lot of repeated. Which on the steep turns fell on the floor, or blah themselves at their feet.
We felt relief from the minibus, when finally saw your Ban Tai Beach (Ao Ban Tai Beach). So ended our trip to the party of the full moon.
Tips for those who are going to visit Ko Phangan for Full Moon Party

This party is just a way to lure tourists here, the island has much more impressive strengths And places where it is really worth going.

Then all drinks and ice are mixed and the corporate cocktail is obtained. The cost of such a plastic bucket from 150 baht and above.
At the party you can not only buy alcohol, but also food in Makashniki. Prices wave acceptable.
Thais at a party are very friendly, hugging with all tourists, and sometimes even kiss them.
Hotels in Pangane
If you are planning to stay in Pangan a few days before or after a party, it is best to book a hotel in advance. Since during the full moon party's room in hotels is almost all busy, and the remaining prices are taken off several times.
Book the hotel I recommend on the ship's service, there you will find rooms in the most favorable prices And you can save 20-60% for accommodation.
How to get to the party?
On the this moment You can book a ticket to Pangan from Bangkoka, Phuket, Pattaya and any other point of Thailand. It is very convenient, because you do not have to go to the station or pier for a ticket, stand in line. On the site you will immediately see all available options and you can choose the most suitable ticket for yourself. Prices on the site are the same as in the box office.
It is easiest to get to Pangan from Samui Islands and Surattani province. It is enough to buy a ticket to the ferry or a boat and you will immediately be delivered to the island of Phangan.
From the island of Samui from the pier near Big Buddha swim boats, who will take tourists directly to the beach Hada Rin in Pangan. They are kiced overnight and take tourists back to Samui. The cost of this service is 200 baht in one direction. This method is the most convenient for those who rest on Samui and want to visit the full moon party.
From the province of Surattani and the island of Samui to Phangan walk ferries, but they arrive at the port of Tong Sala, from where you have to get to the beach of Hada Rin. And this is approximately 10 kilometers. You can get from the pier to the Khaad Rin beach on a taxi or songteo.
The exact location of the Khaad Rin Beach is on the map.
In order for the party to bring you only positive emotions and no unpleasant situations arose, follow the following recommendations:
- Hide money and valuable things in the inner pockets, as in the crowd of the people and in a drunken state they are easy to lose, also large-scale parties attract thieves that can clean your pockets. And best of all, leave valuable things in the hotel and do not take with you large amounts of money.
- Wear at the sneakers party, because during the event there are broken bottles and, dancing in shales or barefoot, you can face the leg.
- Do not take to the party of children.
- Do not float into the sea in a drunken state, there is a risk of drowning or you can carry out the current in the open sea.
- In no case do not buy drugs from local traders at a party, the event is followed by police and can be easily cared. And for this thing is big, or even the worse you can sit behind the grille.
- Do not take food or alcohol from unfamiliar people, see that the bottle with an alcohol drink has been opened with you, otherwise you can choose by poor-quality alcohol or drugs can be added.
- Take a camera with you to capture a bright party, but we always wear it with you so that the thieves cannot steal it.
If you comply with all safety rules, the Full Moon Party party will give you a lot of bright and positive impressions. Its scale and grandeur affects even avid parties. Also this is a great way to diversify your vacation in Pangan or Samui.
Full Moon Party (Ful Moon Pati) collects on one beach of the island of Ko Phangan up to 30,000 tourists. What is this party of the full moon? About the history of her occurrence, actual schedule FUL MUN for 2017 and 2018, prices and how best to get there - everything is in this article!
With you the project yourself Susanin. Today I will tell you about the full moon party on the island of Phangan, which is held every month. Let's start with the history of FUL Moon - I liked it.
History
The story of Ful Moon is quite simple. In some Thai guidebooks, it was read that it starts since 1983, when a completely small company of people arranged a party in the pangan in the night of the full moon. And the party went so wonderful and liked the participants that they began to spend it every month in full moon. The story of Full Moon, by the way, is very similar to the story - first spent a little company, then I liked everything, and the party went down ;-) You can read more about the festival in the article.
I also heard some details about the fact that the first parties participants (which was only up to 50 people) of the full moon were transported here with Samui. He lived here one teacher of English, who just began to arrange such parties once a month, he sent people here on his boat and even the name came up with Full Moon Party. The name is just recorded on a table for visitors. But these are only rumors - although, I think that part of the truth should be accurate here.
Wild Beach Haad Rin, which could only be reached by water, electricity from generators and, perhaps, the best moon on Earth! Probably from such a mix and the first party has developed.
- From the Military Holiday Full Moon for 50 people The event went up to the festival with the number of participants up to 30,000 people
- Alcoholic beverages on Ful Muna are sold in buckets. It is such a baby sandbreaker in which there is a strong drink, a cola and energy most often.
- In addition to Full Moon Party, Half Moon Party, Quarter Moon Party, and even Black Moon Party are held.
- In 2016, there was a problem with fireworks, and some even had small burns
Security at a party
Before you go to Ful Moon, we read a lot of security recommendations on it. Honestly, it seems to me that this event is nothing special from any mass accumulation of people. I heard a lot about the fact that they are robbed there most often inadequate people - i.e. either heavily drunk or something else. So be in the right or almost right mind, and everything will be ok. But still I will write about some recommendations:
- If possible, try not to take anything superfluous to the party.
- Money is better to take without a wallet and put in a zipper or waist pocket
- With the phone, the camera and other technique just inconvenient to dance. But if you take it, try to come up with a reliable place for her storage like, for example, the belt bag.
- Come on Ful Moon Pati in shoes, so as not to damage your feet about possible fragments
- I met such a recommendation that you should not swim - it is dangerous at night. Honestly, no special desire, because this night everyone goes to the sea to the toilet. Take, turn away and go. Looks funny ;-)
- Do not drink and do not eat something that strangers offer you
- Drugs are illegal in Thailand, and the laws are very tough. It is now (the beginning of 2017), it was on the island of Phangan who began to arrange clouds for Rastabara. Some are also stopped by police on the road and ask: "Pee-Pee, Mister". Some have already deported from Pangan for use. So be careful.
- If you come from Samui and are not going to stop somewhere and spend the night in Pangan, Thais recommended to go to the first ferries or speedboats. By the way, read
WHERE PASSED FULL MUN PATHI and how to get
The feast of the full moon passes on the beach Hada Rin Nok (Haad Rin). If you descend to the bike (moped), I think there should be no problem with searching. If you are going there by taxi, the trip will cost from 250 to 600 baht, depending on where you are going.
From Samui goes steam and goes to Pangan for less than an hour.
From Surattani can be reached by ferry to the island for about 3.5 hours.
And now options - you can get to Surathanie from Bangkok either by bus (which is cheaper), or by plane (which is faster). It is also possible to buy a combined train ticket + bus + ferry from the station in Bangkok. Well, of course, if you fly from another country, then the most convenient flight is the flight to Samui, and then crossing the ferry to the pangan. How to smell a little upon receipt Thai visa, we described.
Cost - Prices for Full Moon
So, start from the entrance:
- Log in - 100 baht.
It gives a rubber bracelet, which serves as a ticket to Ful Moon Pati. And then it remains as a souvenir.
- Alcoholic buckets - from 250 baht
A lot on the Internet recreated from each other's articles about Full Moon, where it is written about the fact that he can carry the party to the party, thereby saving a couple of thousands of Bat. Now let's consider. The bottle of whiskey used in a cocktail bucket for 250 baht, stands in the store about 160. Plus Energy 10 and Cola about 20. The very bucket is still something else (20 baht in the store of the same name). Those. It turns out, it saves about 50 baht. Accordingly, in order to save a couple of thousands of Bat, such buckets need to buy 20. Oh, this mathematics! Summary: Looks like the game is not worth the candle.
- Food - various kebabs, pies and noodles - approximately 50-100 baht. Assortment, of course, the benefit, and prices are higher than on.
- Taxi - 250-600 baht one way.

What is Full Moon Party
The party with sunset begins. Throughout the beach, music is played - many different directions, different dance floors. Trans, Techno, House, Reggae, etc. So, probably everyone will find a music to taste. The party ends at 12 afternoon of the next day, but they say that afterparty lasts a couple of days after that. So some swell right on the sand on the beach! -)
About about 22:00 ignited the inscription from some fuel material Full Moon. It looks spectacular. But during the New Year's party 2017, an accident occurred in the same place - the inscription unsuccessfully broke out and left burns on the hands of some guests. But it seems to be nothing terrible.
As we went
My institute friend Artyom came to visit us. He arrived exactly on the day of the full moon when it was improved. Well, we decided to go and intelligence what yes as there.
Right on our beach hung an announcement that from there you can get to the party for 250 baht. Taxi we did not have time - for a long time we were converted. We went on the other, less filled in 300 baht. We landed in the very thick of events - a huge number of people, shops, shops, souvenirs, t-shirts and shirts of acid colors, tattoos with fluorescent paints. On this video, we only saved with a taxi and are going to go to Ful Muna:
We started moving on a common movement and so smoothly reached the entrance. On the right stood a tray with black bracelets, on the left - with pink. We were given black. We have passed a little more, and here we have opened this legendary rumbling by different sounds the beach of the full moon. Video from the thick of FUL Moon Party:
Phangan - forever young and forever drunk island, where tourist infrastructure sharpened on young people and party members. Well, not so that only on them, of course, but in comparison with Pangan, Samui Island is a pensioner on vacation. On Pangan there is a lot of places, the only purpose of which is a party in its format. Not clubs, not bars with dance floors, namely a party. Of the three dozen existing Tus, I selected eleven most famous and sought-after. Well, you can see the list of cool cafes and bars in the post.
Full Moon Party in Pangan, she is the party of the full moon, is held at once a month, in full moon. The very first such party happened in the late eighties, and then she was just the usual birthday celebration of someone from the islanders. And at the present time Ful Moon Pati collects from 5 to 25 thousand people, depending on the season. The party is large-scale and is not tied to one institution - it is celebrated by everyone who has a restaurant and bar business on the coast.
Hagia Rin at the time of the tusie closes for a free passage and begin to take the MZD - 100 baht. A few dance floors are placed around the beach, where they turn their music, so everyone will find a place for separation. If you intend to get on this Patya, then take care in advance about housing - you know yourself, the people will be overthow and all surrounding hotels and gestations will be clogged to failure.
Half Moon Party
Half the moon party or a lunisief party is an alternative to Full Moon Party, or "When I really want, but the full moon has already been stamped." Half Moon Party is held once a week before the full moon, and once a week after it, respectively. The organizers use a section of the island near the beaches of Ban Tai and Ban Kai, but not on the seashore, alas. Time - from 20 to 7 am. Entrance is expensive - 500 baht, the music is twisted in the style of techno and trance.
Black Moon Party
Black Moon Party is a black moon party, which is held next to the resort of McAc Bay after a couple of weeks after Fulmoon Pati, from 20 hours to 7 am. It is on the beach of Ban Tai, an easily accessible and passable place. The entrance to the techno-tus is not cheap - 600 baht from the nose, and as a compliment from the organizers you will be offered one drink for overclocking. Despite the cost of entry, the place is very popular, and in Hai Sizh, DJs are invited to the world name. Create mainly trance.
Lost Paradise Party is a fairly fresher event (this article has written in 2018), which is held once a month since 2015. According to the experts, the party brought the headguanian underground to a new level, thanks to great location On the secluded beach Hada Yao East (not to confuse C), an excellent sound system and a competent selection of performers. Speaking "secluded" I mean really a wild and hard-to-reach beach, where it is difficult to get along land, so there are no random people and idle tourists. That is why the party is called the "lost paradise". I traveled there, 1.5 hours at a pickup on a broken primer, or on a boat, too, you can, 20 minutes from Hada Rina.
Lighthouse - Techno Dinner Parties, Bar and Bungalow
Guy's Bar and Eden Bar
In the east of the island there are three-hermit beach: and. So, Haad Tien is notable for the fact that there are two places near each other: Guy's Bar and Eden Bar, which are deservedly considered to be cult bars, where parties regularly pass. From 20 hours to 9 am each Friday (Guice Bar) and every Saturday and Tuesday (eating the bar). The chip of the institutions is in the hard-to-accessness, so come here on land - problematic, and by sea - not cheap. Drunted House. Details with photos and how to get -
Shiva Moon.
Siva Moune's party is held on the beach of Ban Tay, three days before, and three days after Fulmun Pati, from 20 o'clock and 7 am on a small plot with a bar and a dance floor where the techno, Psi-Trans and House are twisted. If you are not yet in the topic, then Shiva is one of the main gods of Hinduism, but from Hinduism here except the name of God and fluorescent pictures on the walls there is nothing, for obvious reasons. For coloring around the perimeter of the dance flooring, fires can be divorced with darkness.
Jungle Experience
In accordance with the title, this party is not held on the beach by the sea, but in the depths of the jungle, not far from Half Moon Party. Right in the middle of the jungle is organized something like a garden, which is decorated with fluorescent and laser illumination, with a bunch of light effects. Entrance to the territory - 300 bahms, and this cost already includes a compliment from the organizers - two drinks. Once a month (for 4 or 1 day before Full Moon Party), from 20 hours before 7 in the morning Psi Trans, progressive house, electronics, and all this on excellent equipment with competent sound.
Sramanora Waterfall Party
Sramanora Waterfall Party is a party that takes two days before Full Moon Party and two days after, next to the efferbonic waterfall from 20 to 6 o'clock in the morning. In the lower reaches of the waterfall there are artificial fonts with fresh water (not better to drink it) where you can swim in the daytime, and at night - if desired. There is little space around the waterfall, so the main party takes place for meters in 20, near the little bungalows and the main building of the whole resort. The cost of the entrance is 300 baht (two cocktails include. Twist techno and house.
Original Pool Party.
Original Poul Party is held at Hada Rine, on the territory of the Coral Bungalows, where there is not the largest pool (about 10x20 meters, oval form). The beginning of the party once a week, at 21 o'clock, the entrance and parking for guests are free. There are not many places for dancing, but they do not confuse this, people jumping right in the water. Clause prices approximately as in the store is also a substantial bonus for such an event plan.
Moon Set Party.
Pubatas and aftpati Grand Full Moon Party (well, or so considered, although because of the remoteness from Hada Rin, I would not say that). It takes place on the territory of the Pirate's Club (this) three days before Fulmun and two days after Fulmuna. From 20 hours before 7 in the morning, House Khus and Trans.
On this, my list of recommendations ends. Keep in mind that the schedules and the number of parties are constantly changing and I don't need to say that you always check the info before, google to help. If you have any comments or additions to you, send in the comments, it will be useful for all blog readers.
