Arrival to Koh Phangan

Day 62

Koh Phangan

At 4 am we arrived to the pier and had to wait till around 7 for the boat.


Somehow those who were waiting for the boat to Koh Phangan, had to take another bus to another pier in Suratthani. Those who headed to Koh Samui were lucky, since they just got the boat directly from the first pier.


Ok, we took another bus for almost 1,5 hours to the other pier.


And about 1 hour waiting for our boat at the pier.




Finally the boat came, they took all the bags and droped them all together (at the arrival will be challenging to find the bags easily haha)


Finally, after 3 hours and 2 stops on the way (koh samui and some other island), we arrived to Koh Phangan. Lek, our tourist agent was waiting for us at the pier and arranged a pick up to our bungggalows, called "Benjamin´s Hut", at the Haad Chao Pao (chao pao beach).


As soon as we arrived, we found out that the price was actually higher then the one we have agreed with Lek, but since the island was full (really full, 2 days before New year every single place was booked or overpriced), we just took it. The place was really nice and bungalows were just couple of meters from the beach, really big and comfortable. Ours with fan was 15 euros (750 baht) and Andreea as real capitalist paid 1,000 for the air con one. (20 euros) :-D


We ate something at Benjamin's restaurant and went to bed, destroyed after tiring and long trip from Bangkok.


The Full Moon Party and New Year was getting closer!
