Haad Rin in and around

by austarman - last update: Jan 21, 2007

View near Haad Rin

Samui in the distance
The ride on my moterbike into Haad Rin from Baan Tai was really sceanic once I got close to Haad Rin.
Haad Rin is on the southern tip of Koh Phangan island and the town is surrounded by steep hills.
This is a view of Koh Samui from one such hill near Haad Rin.
Strolling along Haad Rin's west beach

Haad Rin Nok beach

There were not so many people around on this beach compared to Samui where I had just come from.
I guess it was too early for most party goers to surface being almost lunch-time?
A good beach though and a great place for a swim with hills all around.

The road from Haad Rin

This was taken from the road leading out from Haad Rin and heading towards Baan Tai.
This is really a special piece of road to ride along with many fantastic views, but unfortunatly very few places to stop and take photo's?
Steep hills and great views
Beach and hills in Haad Rin

Haad Rin's West beach

The water was quite warm here this day, but it was still good to have a dip here and lunch at a beach side resturant.

Coming ashore in Haad Rin

There nothing like a trip in a Thai long tail boat.
These people are just returning to Haad Rin after a beach tour in a this long tail boat.
