The island of Copenhagen is considered the "little brother" of Kosmoy. The size of the island is about two thirds that of Kosmoy, and like any little brother it is less developed and more wild and natural. The distance between the two islands is relatively small, about 15 km, and can be done easily on a ferry that leaves from both islands. At the same time, the differences in development between the two islands are much greater, although recently we have seen more Good hotels in Copenhagen And quite a few other attractions for tourists that are being built more and more.
Ko Pha Ngan is one of the most contrasting islands in Thailand - on the one hand, a sense of freedom, calm and peace that knows no bounds, and on the other hand, huge parties that last all night long, such as the "full moon" The famous one considered an extraordinary event that attracts huge amounts of revelers every month. On days without parties, the island is not particularly busy, spacious and pleasant, so it is very convenient to walk around and discover it.
Contrast or not, there is no doubt that this is one of the most beloved islands in Thailand - and rightfully so.

Copenhagen has quite a few Hotels Spread over a number of popular areas for accommodation and hospitality, with the most famous and well-known beach being Had Rin who hosts the Full Moon parties once a month. On this beach you will find mostly Hostels, hostels and simple hotels which are mainly intended for the party people who come to the island.
Along the west coast of the island there is a large number of resorts, some of them luxurious and especially luxurious. The beach is considered relatively calm and its white sand attracts tourists who like to lie under the hot sun. The west coast is closer to the party area and Had Rin, so it is an excellent option for those who want to go to parties and at the same time enjoy a luxurious hotel instead of a hostel or hostel.
Thong Nai Beach in the northeast of the island attracts more established tourists who want a calm and quiet vacation. Its distance from the party beaches makes it less popular among tourists who wish to experience them and the majority of vacationers in this area are those who wish to enjoy the views and the wonderful silence that the area offers.
Copenhagen does not have an airport and most tourists arrive to the island by ferry from the neighboring island Kosmoy. The ferries depart frequently from the eastern shores of Kosmoy and the journey takes between half an hour and an hour. Only one airline reaches the airport of Kosmoi - Bangkok Airways, whose airport is privately owned, so the flights to the island are considered expensive compared to the other islands and the price of the flight can even reach $200 (from Bangkok) If you want to reach the island without passing through Kosmoi first, you will have to take a ferry from the city Surat Thani is located a little further in the Gulf of Thailand, but the boat from there takes several hours and is considered tiring.

Also, it is highly recommended to coordinate your arrival to the island in the middle of the month so that you can enjoy the full moon experience.
There are no international car rental companies in Copenhagen, but several local agencies offer rental vehicles. At the same time, most of these agencies do not offer insurance together with the vehicle, so it is recommended to avoid taking the risk of renting a car without proper insurance, because any small accident may lead to quite heavy expenses that will ruin your trip. It is certainly possible to get by with the service taxis and tuk-tuks that frequent the island and its surroundings.

Copenhagen is famous for its big and fun parties, when the name of the "Full Moon" went out all over the world as one of the most worthwhile events that the party world has to offer. These parties bring a constant flow of tourists to Copenhagen every time there is a full moon (which of course happens every month). If you are unable to coordinate your arrival on the island with the date of the party, you will be happy to find out that the island offers other wild and fun parties such as the "Black Moon" and the "Half Moon".
The Full Moon Party It is actually a huge beach party that takes place every night of a full moon at Had Rin Beach, where thousands of revelers enjoy a crazy party all night long. Before the party, the revelers make sure to paint themselves with beautiful paintings in glow-in-the-dark colors, to enhance the experience. The party itself also has various attractions such as athletes jumping on fire ropes or various other cool arts. Along the Had Rin beach there are several squares, each of which plays different music by a different DJ, so you can easily find your favorite spot and listen to the music you like. Of course, bars and stalls that offer drinks spread all along the beach and including full moon parties are something you don't want to miss when you're in Thailand (and even when you're not).
Half moon parties Occur twice a month and gather a large crowd of revelers, although still smaller compared to the Full Moon parties. The party takes place in the Ban Thai area and takes place in a closed complex that includes three different squares and a special bunker, and the music in the central square is quite heavy trance music, which is mainly suitable for fans of the genre. In the other squares, the music is more varied, so you are still likely to find what you like, even if you are not one of those who dig the squares. An entrance ticket to the party costs about NIS 100.
The smallest party on the island, attracting several hundred revelers at a time. It takes place when the moon is completely hidden and also in the Ban Thai region. These parties are considered particularly colorful (despite the contrary name...) and attract DJs who specialize in trance music. The ticket to the party is quite cheap, about NIS 40 and also includes a glass of drink.
