Sala where the ferries leave for Samui and the mainland. The location combines
easy access to beach action, restaurants and bars associated with the full moon
parties while being very quiet and private in itself.

Koh Pha-Ngan
Koh Pha-Ngan is one of the few unspoiled islands in Thailand where people
still live much as they have always done close to the rhythm of nature and under
the protection of age-old spirits. Here most people follow the rhythm of the
daylight - waking at sunrise and turning in shortly after nightfall. This is
the perfect place for the traveller who wants to go somewhere off the beaten
track.
With its beautiful beaches and lush mountains, the island offers a haven
of tranquillity and discovery – perfect for a holiday. When you are tired of
the beach, small roads, trails, and mountain tracks twist and wind their way
through the splendours and vistas of the largely untouched landscape – and the
beautiful waterfalls. In the mountains there are trails and walks to follow.
You can also have a guide to take you for a longer trek perhaps to the top of
the island.
Or you may go snorkelling and diving to admire the beauty of the coral reefs
that surrounds the south and west coast of the island – or just take a trip
around the island in a long-tail boat. The Than Sadet National Park and the
nearby Koh Tao and Ang Thong archipelago with more than 40 islands of pristine
beaches, natural limestone caves and the tranquil Tha Laem Nai - a salt water
blue lagoon lake. These areas provide fantastic opportunities for exploration
and for snorkeling and diving.
Sunset
Koh Phangan
The south of Koh Pha-Ngan, Haad Rin, is dominated by steep and lush granite
mountains with steep cliffs that run down to the coast. Here you can swim all
year round.
On the east side of the peninsula is the famous Haad Rin Nok Beach with all
the glittering life of beach sports and beach bars. The beaches on the east
coast are all connected by a footpath, which makes for a wonderful, leisurely
walk.
The west side of the peninsula - only a short walk away - is most more tranquil.
Here there are no clubs but cozy beach bars and many small restaurants. On the
west side you find the long curving bays of Ao Bangson, Ao Hin-Lor and Haad
Seekantang. On this side of the island you find traces of mangrove forest and
leaning coconut palms, and the beaches are mostly deserted – perfect for sunbathing,
swimming and daydreaming.
The Vimarn Samut resort lies directly down to Haad Rin Nai (the Sunset Beach)
- a white sandy beach that also lies on the west coast of the Had Rin peninsula.
Only 3 1/2 hours from Bangkok - the fastest travel option takes you by plane
from Bangkok to Koh Samui (there are many flights every day) and by express
boat from Koh Samui to Koh Pha-ngan (Haad Rin pier).
You may also FLY from Bangkok, Phuket, Kuala Lumpur, or Singapore directly
to Samui or Suratthani… or take a TRAIN to Suratthani. Sleepers are recommended.
Or you can take a BUS from Bangkok to Suratthani. VIP or Super VIP busses
are recommended – they go directly to Koh Pha-Ngan.
If you arrive in Suratthani you then need to take a BOAT, a beautiful ferry
trip from Koh Samui or Suratthani to Koh Pha-Ngan. You can choose between different
ferries or the express boat.
Once you arrive at the international port Thongsala, just call us for a free
taxi, or tell the taxi guy at Thongsala pier that you’re going to Vimarn Samut
Resort in Haad Rin. The taxi ride will take you about 20 minutes.
