Where are the parties and nightlife on Ko Lipe?

The center of parties and nightlife on Ko Lipe is Pattaya Beach and the adjacent Walking Street pedestrian street.

Pattaya Beach is the liveliest spot on the island. During the day, it's crowded, with music playing from numerous bars, and in the evening, the real show begins. Right on the sand, there are bars with DJs, fire shows, and live music. The atmosphere is very relaxed and friendly. Drink prices here are higher than in other parts of the island, but many pay for the atmosphere and convenience.

Walking Street, which starts right from the beach, is a continuous string of restaurants, bars, massage parlors, souvenir shops, and dive centers. Here you can find entertainment for every taste: from a quiet dinner to dancing until morning.

On other beaches, the nightlife is more relaxed:

• Sunrise: There are a few bars, but the atmosphere is more relaxed, for quiet gatherings.
• Sunset: In the evening, bars fill with people who come to watch the sunset, but after the sun sets, most disperse — mosquitoes and lack of lighting do their thing.

Conclusion: if you're going to Ko Lipe for parties, socializing, and to "be in the thick of things," choose a hotel in the Pattaya Beach area. If noise bothers you, it's better to stay at Sunrise and walk to the parties (only 10-15 minutes).
