Do not be afraid of the word – a cult restaurant (or rather a bar) on Phangan Island. Made in the style of Robinson Crusoe’s hut materials that were caught from the sea for a long time: snags, faded boards, bamboo, palm leaves, sticks and ropes with with ropes. The atmosphere and landscapes here are just freaky, above all praise, the view of the sunset sea – chic, and in general a complete romance and island chillout. The place is popular, widely known and crowded, which, however, does not spoil your mood, no general impression of this cozy corner Phangan

Restaurant Koh Raham
Thai “Ko” in the name of the restaurant and bar (meaning “island”) taken for beauty rather than geographic features. The bar is located not on an island, but on a rocky promontory between Haad Son and Haad Yao, two of the most relaxing beaches in the north-west of Phangan. Sometimes, during the storm season, Koh Raham suffers seriously and partially destroyed by wind and waves. This, in part, explains Choice by owners of an institution of a material for building: here to you and authenticity is preserved, which is so fond of tourists, and The price for repair / maintenance of buildings in this case is minimal.
As a restaurant, because of the not very successful performance Thai cuisine and meager menu, this place does not deserve some special attention. The food in Koh Raham is expensive and, in general opinion is not the most delicious on Phangan. The bartender works much better mixes good cocktails, and in general is much more interesting here. come from the point of view of lying in a hammock, take pictures in unusual entourage, jump into the sea or just meet with friends and skip a glass of something. Although many choose its for one or two romantic dinners at sunset. By the way, besides bamboo furniture, and there is massive, looks unusual.
The first hall (if you can call it open space), the next one immediately after entry is fairly common. And all I listed above (ropes, snags and boards), is on the tip of the island. Be sure to go there.

Breakfast is simple
In addition to food and drinks, Koh Raham pleases with a clean entrance to the water. Not in the sense that there is a beach here, but just a section of the sea under restaurant without underwater surprises and you can jump with a three-meter height without fear of breaking his bones. In addition to jumping here you can bearable snorkel, because the sea is clean and clear due to lack of sandy beaches and stinky rivers. Although, frankly, local underwater animals are not very pleased with the diversity. But it is, like, the problem of Koh Samui and Phangan in general – all snorkeling and diving are on Koh Tao.
In general, Koh Raham is interesting exactly organic combination interior and exterior, authenticity and landscapes, positive aura and pleasant aftertaste. Including – from cocktails.
