Price level$$$$Mid-range
A proper open-air club in the trees, not a beach bar with speakers, and it runs on event nights only.
The 8 Best Nightlife Spots in Koh Phangan, Ranked
What strikes me here is how few of these are actual clubs. An Irish pub, a secluded beach scene and a handful of cocktail and chill spots sit alongside the jungle rave at the top, and that's OXA, the one pulling the biggest crowds by a mile. Prices sit in the mid range almost across the board, with The Jam bar the cheapest of the lot.
