Sandbox - Pink Sand Beach Club
Sitting along the famous Chaweng Beach strip on Koh Samui's east coast, Sandbox - Pink Sand Beach Club brings together the laid-back atmosphere of a beach bar with the energy of a social club setting. Located on Chaweng Beach Road, it draws both travellers and locals looking to enjoy drinks by the water without waiting until nightfall. Open daily from 10am to 8pm, the venue operates firmly as a daytime and early evening destination rather than a late-night spot, making it a solid choice for those who prefer socialising during sunlit hours. The beach club format suits the Chaweng area well, where the stretch of coastline invites lingering over cocktails while taking in the surroundings. The name nods to a relaxed, playful aesthetic that fits Samui's broader beach culture. Good to know: with opening hours wrapping up at 8pm every day of the week, Sandbox is better suited as a sundowner stop or an afternoon outing than a late-night venue. Visitors heading to Chaweng for after-midnight nightlife will want to plan additional stops along the strip. The address places it within easy reach of Chaweng's main drag, making it convenient to combine with a broader evening out in the area. Casual beachwear is appropriate given the beach club setting.

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.
