Our Ko Phangan spot o' paradise
Ko Phangan
,
Thailand
Anyhow the next day we had to buy the expensive tourist boat ticket as no one would tell us how to get to the local pier so we could catch the ferry, and finally got to our destination, quite grumpy really!

Needless to say our 'happy-to-be-travell-o-meter' was only sitting at about a 2 out of 5... It very soon shot up to a 4 though once we found our little wooden bungalow and beach... We spent 2 nights here at Haad Gruad resort, and snorkelled at Ao Mae Hat beach, (really lovely coral and fish actually!)

The next day we started our best experience so far for both of us; we caught a longtail boat to Bottle Beach which is a small, quiet beach on the north of Ko Phag Nan, and only accessible by boat and found a beachfront bungalow 41 steps from the sea! First thing we did (besides diving into the turquoise sea) was buy a hammock and string it up right on our front patio. The next 3 days went something like this: Wake up, swim, lie in hammock reading, swim, hammock, swim hammock..........such bliss! We had finally found our spot o' paradise and it was rather hard to leave...
