Monkey bar Lipe. มังกี้ บาร์ เกาะหลีเป๊ะ

4.2(80 reviews)$$$$

Monkey Bar sits right on Pattaya Beach, one of Koh Lipe's most popular stretches of sand, making it a natural gathering spot for travellers looking to wind down after a day of island life. The setting is casual and relaxed, with the kind of laid-back atmosphere that suits the unhurried pace of Koh Lipe. It draws a steady mix of backpackers, couples, and longer-stay visitors looking for a sociable place to spend an evening without venturing far from the shore. Open every day from 4pm through to 2am, the bar caters to both early-evening sundowners and those looking to stay out later into the night. The mid-range pricing makes it an accessible option for most travellers, and the consistent hours mean it functions reliably as an evening anchor point on the island, which has a relatively compact nightlife scene compared to larger Thai resort destinations. Koh Lipe is a small island with no motorised land transport, so getting around on foot is standard practice. Pattaya Beach is well within walking distance of most accommodation on the island. For those visiting during peak season between November and April, the beach area tends to fill up in the evenings, so arriving on the earlier side secures a better spot. Footwear is optional on the sand but useful for walking the island's paths after dark.

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars

Carry Your Passport or a Copy

Clubs and some bars check IDs strictly, especially in Bangkok's Thonglor, RCA, and Sukhumvit areas. A photo of your passport info page on your phone usually works, but carrying a laminated photocopy is safer.

Know the Closing Times

Legal closing time is 2 AM for most venues, though enforcement varies. In Bangkok's designated entertainment zones (RCA, Silom Soi 2/4, Khao San), some clubs stay open until 4 AM. Islands tend to be more relaxed about hours.

Buy Bucket Drinks Cautiously

Island bucket drinks (mixed spirits in a small bucket) are cheap and fun but notoriously strong and inconsistent. Stick to one, stay hydrated, and never leave your drink unattended at beach parties.
