Why go, and how to do it well
Scubar The Third Chapter is one of Koh Phi Phi's standout nightlife spots, drawing a consistent crowd of travelers and locals alike to its energetic bar scene on the island. With a name that nods to its legacy on Phi Phi, this venue has built a strong reputation as a go-to destination for those looking to experience the island's nightlife without straying too far from its laid-back coastal character.
Visitors can expect a lively but approachable atmosphere, with the bar operating every night of the week from 6pm through to 3am. The mid-range pricing makes it accessible for backpackers and mid-budget travelers alike, and the extended hours mean it suits both those easing into the evening and those looking to keep the night going well past midnight. The bar format encourages a social, mingling vibe that fits naturally with Phi Phi's party-friendly reputation.
Koh Phi Phi has no motorised vehicles, so getting around the island is entirely on foot. Scubar is located in the Ao Nang district of Krabi province, and visitors arriving by ferry should factor in a short walk from the pier. Evenings on the island can fill up quickly during peak season, so arriving earlier in the night is a good way to secure a spot before the crowd builds. Checking the website at bestofphiphi.com/scubar for any updates on events or specials is also worthwhile before heading out.

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars
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.
Arrange Your Ride Home
Use Grab (ride-hailing app) to get home safely — taxis outside nightlife areas late at night often refuse meters. Set up the app before going out, and keep your phone charged.
