Live Webcams in Koh Phangan

Koh Phangan, in the Gulf of Thailand between Samui and Koh Tao, is an island that runs on sunsets, and the live webcams in Koh Phangan face them: beach clubs and shorelines with the sand, the longtail boats and the sky doing what they do every evening. It is the calm face of an island better known for the full moon party on its southeastern tip, which is a different film entirely. Ko Pha-ngan, as the official spelling has it, keeps Indochina Time, UTC+7, with no daylight saving, and sunset comes around half past six all year, which is late morning in London and the small hours on the American coasts. The island covers some 125 square kilometres, most of it jungle hills with a road round the edge. February to August is the dry, calm season; the monsoon swell arrives from October to December.
