No question, Kohpangan has some of the best beaches anywhere in the country. Koh Phangan is about 2 1/2 hours from Surat Thani Province and about 45 minutes from Koh Samui Island by ferry. The easiest way from BKK to Phangan is to get joint tickets from Songserm Travel Center who operates joint ticket for (Boats and Speed boats, bus, trains, air) to Koh Phangan. Or another option is to fly an 1 hr. flight by Bangkok Airways daily from BKK to Koh Samui and take the catamaran speed boat to Phangan. Koh Phangan used to be the hippy heaven, currently a 'broader range' of visitors travel here.Everybody want to find a laid back and easy going place. There are concrete roads to Had Rin, but you have been warned that the concrete roads are not in the greatest condition and unless you are a confident motorbike driver then do not attempt to get to HaadRin, as nearly all accidents involving motorcycles happen in this area. Our advice is to leave your motorcylce at the 7-11 at Baan Tai and pay approx 60 Baht for a pickup over the hills to Haad Rin.
