The Full Moon Party Celebration in Thailand takes place at Haad Rin Beach in Koh Phangan, Surat Thani province. The majority of foreigners attend this event because it is entertaining and engaging, especially with the wonderful light. The Full Moon Party has been going on for almost 30 years. Many visitors attend this event throughout the New Year’s holiday season. Each month, it draws 10,000 – 30,000 tourists from around the world to visit the island. I would list down four reasons why such a party on full moon days is so famous and why it’s a must to come here once in a lifetime :

1. Breath-taking Shows

You’ll be amazed with the exciting shows of fire throughout the beach like firework displays, fire-eating shows, fire jugglers with wheels and ropes, etc. However, if you are afraid of fire, you can enjoy the neon-colored street and exhibitions instead. Go and get the neon painting on your body before joining the crowd to make yourself glow under the night time spotlights.

1. Delicious Food

As you know, Thailand is well-known for the best street food and spicy dishes. If you are here to try them, there are food stalls lined up all over the beach. You can enjoy food of any kind from European, Asian, and Thai local dishes (papaya salad and seafood are the most recommended). Or if your body needs alcohol to increase the degree of fun, it’s also available to be sold for tourists who are aged 20 and more.

1. Music Concerts
   Along the beach, there are many mini concerts with different kinds of music. You may find one that suits your taste ranging from EDM, folk songs, to reggae. Don’t forget to make new friends who share the same music preference with you, then leave your soul and body with the music and follow where it leads you to.
2. The Beauty of The Full Moon
   Phangan island is believed to be the world’s first place to hold the Full Moon party and to have the world’s most beautiful view of the full moon. The party was first held as the birthday party of a tourist group of 20-30 people in 1985. Due to the gorgeous full moon view, the island has been well-known to the tourists in no time and a landmark for the full moon party since then. However, during the day, the island is also a good place for nature sightseeing, swimming amidst the crystal clear water, and relaxing jogging.

I will show you how go to Phangan island, you may choose to land at Surat Thani airport and then travel by a service van (around ฿500) to take a ferry (around ฿140) for 6-7 hours to arrive at the island.
