Fodor's Expert Review Haad Thien
Koh Phangan
Beach
A small strip north of the party beaches at Haad Rin, this is an ideal choice for those seeking relaxation and smaller crowds. The sand is a fine yellow and the waters are shallow and clear. A few resort hotels and several good restaurants do business on the waterfront or near the beach. Amenities: food and drink; water sports. Best for: swimming.
