Imagine 10,000 people dancing in the rain on the beach.
10 different bars are blaring rnb/hip hop music, house, techno, pop and more. Everyone is drinking buckets of alcohol with multiple straws. These buckets have mixes including Vodka, Redbull, Lemonade.
80-90% of the girls there are hot as well. People are dancing on makeshift wooden stage, dancing on chairs and tables. This is the full moon party!!
It started off with a light rain followed by a stronger rain. It wasn’t muddy but I reckon it made it more fun. We could see more and more tuk tuks bringing in loads of ravers.
I got back to the hotel at 5am. Some of my friends finished up at 7am when the sun rose and low tide had come in.
It was very peaceful, I only saw one group get into a pushing and shoving match. Other than that everyone seemed to be pretty relaxed, happy and enjoying the moment. While others had drunk too much and were puking on the beach, or were just too tired and needed to sit down.
The main section of the beach is several kilometres long, with bars/disco’s spread throughout this area. There are heaps of street stall vendors on the beach selling buckets of alcohol for about $10.
Lots of random people are dancing/hooking up/talking.
I read that the full moon party was started by a traveller who had his birthday party on Ko Phangnan in 1987. They had such a great time, they decided to have it again the next year.
There is a full moon party once a month, half moon parties every two weeks and Black Moon party (in the forest) like every two months. There’s also parties daily like Coral Bungalow. I don’t think its even related to the moon anymore – just an excuse to have parties!
Definitely a once in a lifetime experience!
I’m out like the full moon party,

The title is right “most insane party ever”, period.
