It so fun to see more and more people talking about koh phangan, I’ve been visiting the island every year for almost my entire life( since I was 5!) and is only recently I’ve started to see it getting the recognition it deserves! It an amazing island and to anyone thinking of visiting I highly recommend it

[loumos_old]

Those tips are so good, especially the detailed info for the events and locations. Many of the other creators just mention them without any info. 🙏🏾

look so different today from when i went twenty years ago. Though it looks beautiful, The roads were mostly red dirt tracks and you mostly stayed on one beach for months, no cappuccinos or avocados or internet or hot water or electric on all the time, if you needed anything like western food or avocados which i craved u had to go to samui. Chaloklum was still a fishing village where the fish was dried .The question i would ask if these people will be telling you they are spiritual, how spiritual are they really when they want all the westerns thrills, the idea back then was to get away from the western world, theres a food for thought. though it looks beautiful.thank you the dog is so cute,

Awesome and informative! Here on the island myself! $544 is wild though 😂that can be cut way way down for any travelers who have a smaller budget if you eat at the more local spots and markets that are super cheap. If we see you at indigo we will say sup 👋

I stayed in Chaloklum long term almost 10 years ago now, I love that village! My favourite place to watch the sunset is at 420 club overlooking Koh Ma. When I was first there it was an abandoned hotel and you were there alone, but I returned last year and they have opened a bar, they also do some really good Thai food with very friendly staff :) There is some really cool graffiti on the walls as well

Great informative video Joose thank you so much for sharing!

[redbrandy]

This is your best video, yet, Joose. Great content, footage, editing. I really liked the premise - 15 things I wish I knew. Captivating. I've only been to Haad Rin Beach a long, long, time ago and had a blast. It was really nice to see it contrasted to all the other beaches and areas. So many activities to experience on Koh Phan Gan. Liked your new sponsor as well. I've read about shares in paintings.

Thanks for your video guides about Ko Samui and Koh P. Still debating which one I should choose for my first trip to SouthEast Asia … which one you d recommend for a solotrip and how many days would be enough ? You re the expert here..
Great content man 👍

[ThatOneGuy-hppb]

Joose, another very informative video. Are you getting around, Romeo?

[anatolylitvak]

Great video thanks 🙏 For me would be just amazing if you add price in Thai baht as well 🙌

[EvanVeiga]

Amazing video, bro. Just came back from Thailand and i hadn't been to Ko Phangan but after watching this videos it's definetely a must do for the next time i go there

[kevd]

This is really helpful. Thanks Joose. Are you doing this type of info for other islands? Do Phuket, Koh Samui have less sand flies and Mozzies? I saw a big jelly fish in Phuket years ago, freaked me out. I never heard of issues though

[davilobato]

hey joose thanks for your content! 

do u think a stay at Haad Than Sadet Beach would be a good pick? found some nice bangalows for a nice price in feb.

[ashwiniikumar]

Nice video i was there 2 months oct nov till dec week of dec 2023 damn I’m in love with this place

Great video! One thing I would add is that you really need a scooter on KPG, and it's not a good place to learn how to drive one. If you don't drive a scooter, some of the other islands like Koh Lanta or Koh Samui are better choices, although the culture is different. I'd recommend Ubud if you want the yoga without the drugs, and Hua Hin if this video made you feel old. 🤣
