Full Moon Party — Koh Phangan

Date: Mensual (luna llena)

Venue: Haad Rin Beach, Koh Phangan, Phuket

Technically not in Phuket, but two hours by ferry from the south of the island and worth mentioning because it's the real reason many people come to this part of Thailand. Ten thousand people dancing on the beach until sunrise with sound systems playing house, reggaeton, dubstep and hardstyle in separate zones. Go once. If you go twice, you already know why.
