"I find Koh Phangan—one of the Gulf islands grouped with Koh Samui and Koh Tao—tends to be at its best from the end of January until mid-March, with January feeling freshest, February the driest and March sunny and dry; July and August bring European and American summer crowds, while September can hit a sweet spot for both weather and fewer people." - Matt Ortile, Rick Jordan

"On Haat Rin beach over 20,000 young people cram in to celebrate, with backpackers from around the world dancing, painting themselves, and drinking buckets of alcohol from dusk until dawn; it’s one of the wildest outdoor New Year’s parties and I’ve spent three New Years here and loved every single one. The festivities include the famous Full Moon Party atmosphere." - Matthew Kepnes
