Haad Rin Nok(Sunrise Beach)

Haad Rin, located on Ko Pha Ngan, is one of Thailand's liveliest beaches and one of the world's most beautiful. This beach offers many tours designed specifically for solo travelers. These large group excursions are typically for ages 18 – 38, and the tour guides are especially attentive to the group and find ways to bring the group closer together through an island paradise.

The scuba diving trips are absolutely amazing, with clear, blue waters and rich marine life. You can also take a boating trip to various beaches on Ko Pha Ngan, and even to Ang Thong National Marine Park, where you can camp for a fairly cheap price. Jet-skiing along the waters is a popular activity during the day, with thrill being the priority of many beachgoers. After a day in the sun, grab a beer from The Outback at happy hour, or listen to popular music at The Reggae House. Head to any one of the beach bars, where groups socialize on large rugs, instead of round tables, offering a more inclusive and laidback atmosphere.

Haad Rin’s nightlife begins to surface in the early evening, and parties are crowded into the early morning. Haad Rin’s most enticing aspect is the Full Moon Party, a lively and uplifting event that occurs every month. It is typical for beachgoers to paint themselves with neon body paint and watch hundreds of bodies glow in the night under UV strip lights along the beach. After a fun-filled night, head back to one of the many beachfront hotels, such as Phangan Bayshore Resort, Tommy Resort, or Palita Lodge. Haad Rin’s nightlife, beauty, and accommodations make for a vacation you won’t ever forget!
