Parts of Thailand, such as Phuket and Bangkok, can get pretty crowded especially during the holiday season. Tourists intent on beating the crowd should visit such places as Koh Phangan. The island sees relatively little tourist traffic and is generally very quiet and secluded, although that may not last long. The island has undergone several transformations, making it a more family friendly place. Mopeds, considered an innovative way of exploring the island have become a tourist hit and the island's monthly Full Moon Parties have already gained legendary status. There are many activities to do on the island. Visitors will find facilities for all the usual water sports, like kite boarding and wind surfing, here. In addition, for those interested in exploring the thriving marine life, there are numerous places offering snorkelling and scuba diving. On the island itself there is plenty of opportunity for exploration. As much of the terrain is still undeveloped, one can find a number of terrific trails for walking and hiking. A popular place to visit is the Laem Son Sea, which is a lake located on the north western part of island. The lake is a protected spot, so fishing is not allowed. However, it serves as a terrific way to cool down during the hot months. The lake is quite deep, and swimmers can get tangled up in the water plants that lie beneath the surface. For these reasons weak swimmers should not venture too far. There is a rope that runs across the lake, but it is merely a guide rope and is not a safety rope. Visitors will also find a number of rope swings hanging off trees bordering the lake. Koh Phangan is shaping up to be the next biggest destination in Thailand, and the time to enjoy it while it is still unspoiled is diminishing. Foreigners looking at Koh Phangan resorts should give the Rasananda Phangan Island Resort & Spa Thailand a try. With its prime location on a private beach and host of services, it is undoubtedly one of the best Koh Phangan hotels around.
