Full Moon Party

It's my last night in Koh Phangan, after the full moon party it gets pretty quiet on the beach and most people leave.

The Full Moon party takes place on Haadrin Beach, the southern tip of Koh Phangan the night of the full moon. Pretty much it's a giant beach rave, that attracts 10, 000 to 30,000 young people from all over the world to party under the full moon.

Each of the beachfront bars have their own DJ and different attractions to lure partyers to their bars. Most of the entertainment was providing by fire, skipping through ropes lit on fire, fireworks and fire eaters. Bucket stands were lined across the beach, each stand tried to attract people with jewellery made from straws, beads and flowers.


I did some filming at the party because the craziness is so hard to describe.


As the night wore on, I stayed awake to watch the sun rise from the Gulf of Thailand.
Anyways I'm on my way to Bangkok tomorrow and will be there until the weekend.
