Koh Phangan is best known for it’s Full Moon Parties but there is so much more to the island than partying!
An increasing number of families are choosing to take a family holiday or settling down to start businesses and live in Koh Phangan. They come for the beautiful beaches which are quiet & secluded compared to European standards and the relaxed attitudes to children.
The big beaches are a great place to explore and play and should keep little ones busy for hours! The island is ringed by many beautiful beaches so to be sure to spend time exploring them.
Many parts of the island are surrounded by a coral reef so it’s easy to find shallow, calm seas.* This is ideal for small children and less of a worry for parents!
The island still has the laid-back vibe of it’s backpacker past and is a very relaxed place for families. Thai people love children and they are welcome everywhere. As the island develops, more activities and services suitable for families are opening each year.
