Saborea Koh Phangan: Una aventura gastronómica única
Explora los sabores auténticos de Koh Phangan en una experiencia gastronómica inolvidable.
Located in the Samui archipelago in the Gulf of Thailand, Koh Phangan is an island of fascinating contrasts. While the southern tip is world famous for its massive full moon celebrations on Haad Rin Beach, most of the island remains protected as a National Park. The west and north are home to a bohemian wellness vibe and yoga retreats (especially in Srithanu), sleepy fishing villages like Chaloklum, and idyllic coves surrounded by coconut palms and granite stone cliffs.
