BEACH
On the west side of Ko Phangan, about 300 meters from the main road, is a small white sandy beach called Ao Shrithanu. With a relaxed atmosphere, pearly white powder sand and a coral reef in front of the beach, it is a nice place to celebrate your holiday.
The bay is about 200 meters long and is swimmable during both low and high tide. You can enjoy the sunset from this beach! On the south side of Ao Shrithanu is a cove that fishermen use to moor their boats. It is only a 10-minute walk to the village of the same name where you can buy everything and enjoy good food.
WHERE TO STAY
On Ao Srithanu are different mid-range stays offering bungalows, like Seaview Rainbow or Nice Sea Resort with a cozy bar on the beach. Leamsom Resort is more of a hangout for travelers with budget bungalows on a good part of the beach.
South of the main beach you will find 2 more upper range stays, Phangan Cove Beach Resort and Loyfa Natural Resort. To reach Loyfa Natural Resort you have to cross the creek. They have a small private beach and 2 swimming pools.
You will find a wide variety of places to eat at the beach or in the village which is just a 5-minute walk.
From the pier to Ao Srithanu, a shared taxi costs 200 baht. This beach is easily accessible by scooter.
