Bottle Beach view point

Image
You are at Bottle Beach and getting bored of spending the whole day in your hammock? Go put on some shoes and make a trek to the view point. It starts just behind the bungalows and it will take roughly an hour to get to the top. Do bring lot’s of water and wear some decent shoes. The view of the bay and Koh Tao in the far distance is perfect. The head of the trail starts behind Bottle Beach 2. You will see flat land behind Bottle Beach 2. Head back from the beach into this area and you will see a trail leading east up into the hills. The trail is easy to see. It slowly goes up through fairly thick jungle before eventually exiting into open skies and the final stretch of cliff leading out to the viewpoint. As I mentioned before this final part is not scary. As you look out from the viewpoint you get the best view showing the entirety of Bottle Beach. This is to the left of the rock if you are facing out to sea. On the right is the rocky coastline that forms the north-east corner ...

Koh Phangan, Bottle Beach

Image
The stunning island of Koh Phangan attracts lots of visitors. You can dream away in your hammock on a quiet beach or rave all night at the monthly full moon party. Do you want to get active, go snorkeling or diving, rent a motorbike and explore the island. One of the nicest beaches is Bottle beach. Secluded by large boulders it's only accessible by boat for Chaloklum or Thong Nai Pan. There are only a few resorts with bungalows right on the beach. Facilities are basic, fan and cold water. But what can you expect for 400 baht per night! Bottle Beach is recommended for young visitors who love adventure and activities. You can take a walk just a few minutes to the sea and do snorkelling and kayaking. Moreover, for the people who loves hiking and trekking, you can trek to the jungle and reach the view point where you can appreciate Bottle Beach Sea View overall.
