Relax Bar by Phi Phi Pirate
Relax Bar by Phi Phi Pirate brings a casual, fun energy to the Phi Phi Islands bar scene, drawing in travellers looking for a place to unwind with a drink without the intensity of the island's more crowded party spots. The pirate theme adds a playful character to the setting, making it a popular stop for both daytime drinkers and those easing into an evening out. Visitors can expect a mid-range drinks menu in a relaxed outdoor-style setting typical of island bar culture in southern Thailand. The bar opens early at 11am, making it a solid choice for afternoon cocktails or cold beers after a day on the water. It runs until 1am on most nights, giving guests plenty of time to settle in without feeling rushed. The atmosphere leans social and easygoing rather than loud and club-like, which suits those who want to enjoy the island night without committing to a full party experience. Good to know: the bar does not have a website, so there is no online booking or menu available in advance. Arriving early in the evening tends to offer a more relaxed experience before the crowd builds later in the night. As with most venues on Phi Phi Island, comfortable casual clothing and sandals are perfectly appropriate, and cash is worth having on hand as card facilities can be inconsistent on the islands.

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.
