Bamboo Beach Bar

Bamboo Beach Bar sits along Songserm Pier Street on Koh Tao, one of Thailand's most popular islands for diving and island life. Open seven days a week from 11am through to 1am, it caters to the full stretch of the day — from afternoon drinks after a dive to late-night socialising under the stars. The budget-friendly price point makes it an accessible option for backpackers and longer-stay travellers alike. The atmosphere here leans casual and unpretentious, with the kind of relaxed beach bar vibe that Koh Tao does well. Guests can expect a sociable crowd, cold drinks, and a setting that encourages lingering. Its consistent popularity is reflected in the strong rating it holds across a solid number of visitor reviews, suggesting it delivers reliably on what it promises. For those planning a visit, the bar is easy to find given its location near Songserm Pier — a useful landmark for anyone arriving on the island by ferry. Because it opens at 11am, it works well as a daytime stop as well as an evening one. Up-to-date information on events or specials can be found through its Facebook page at facebook.com/bamboobeachbarkohtao. Dress code is relaxed — beachwear is the norm on Koh Tao.
