The Full Moon Party
After partying in the streets on
New Orleans
you may be in the mood for a less urbane kind of fun.
Thailand
's just the place.
If you liked the atmosphere and setting of the movie
the Beach
, you should definitely head to the tropical island of
Koh Phangan
in Thailand for the Full Moon Party (
official website
).
Every month the the island's beach turn into a dance floor for a raving crowd of
10 to 15 thousand
people from all over the world. If you're wondering what draws them there just check out the scenery:
After you've gotten your breath back check out the local notice board, you may need some traditional healing for the day after:
But it's not the sunsets and yoga classes that get people flocking to the island, it's the party. Every full moon the beach becomes
20 nightclubs
serving all kinds of dance music to the ecstatic crowd who are dancing on the white sand and in the water. You can imagine the atmosphere is vibrant with the pulsing rhythm of the thousands people:
Shops located conveniently along the beach will prep you for the long night with authentic Thai foods and UV body art:
To give you an idea just how cool this looks in UV light check out the stickers below:
The Full Moon Party boasts the best DJs and if you're into electronic music you're bound to have a blast:
As if this wasn't enough they heat up the atmosphere with fire dancers:
I imagine after all that dancing and shaking it gets pretty romantic, so if you think that rubbing against bikini and shorts clad dancers on a moonlit tropical beach dotted with bonfires and friendly bars just might be your thing look up to the sky and imagine yourself on Koh Phangan.
Alternatively, you may catch the next plane and be there for the next full moon.
July 9th is the closest one
