Known as Prathet Thai to all those born there, meaning ‘land of the free’, it’s no wonder Thailand has been a backpackers mecca for decades. With nearly fifteen hundred islands, many featured in Holywood classics, Thailand’s island hopping routes are world famous.

Here you can find alternatives to the full moon parties, tips on where to stay and the best beach bars if you’re looking for something a bit different and like house music.

I loved it because you could jump in and out the water as you pleased and the staff are super friendly. You can do whatever you like here, everyone is content in their own slice of paradise.
