5 Best Nightlife in Koh Rong

Dragon Den is what you might call Koh Rong’s first proper “bar”. While the majority of venues simply offer somewhere to enjoy cold and cheap beers in some degree of comfort, the drinks menu here is much longer, boasting imported wheat beers and even their own microbrews.

The prices are still pretty reasonable, with draught Five Men Fresh Beer from Sihanoukville available for just about US$1. You can find Dragon Den near the ferry terminal of Koh Tui Village.

Police Beach is the nearest thing to Thailand’s famous Full Moon Party on Koh Phangan’s Haad Rin Beach, with the added bonus that the party is twice a week instead of once a month.

The beach is just a short walk along the coast from Koh Tui Village, with entrance from about US$5 in advance or US$7.50 at the door (though prices are prone to rising during busy periods). The atmosphere and size of the party make it similar to what Koh Phangan was like when the parties there first got started, being much safer and more relaxed.

Virtually the only lively bar on the otherwise peaceful Long Set Beach, Nest Beach Club offers stunning views and happy hour specials on cocktails from 6pm to 9pm. The chillout music and cool setting make it a nice place for a relaxing evening.

The club hosts occasional special parties, which are a bit more upbeat and lively, featuring free beer, free shots, live DJs and a hog roast, among other entertainments, generally for the low entry cost of about US$4. Read more...

Right at the back of Koh Tui Village and up quite a steep set of stone steps, Skybar really deserves its name as it's pretty high up. The challenge of the climb is rewarded with a fantastic view over the village and across the beautiful clear seas towards Koh Rong Sanloem.

The bar has a different drinks deal every night as well as a happy hour from 6pm every evening, making it a fun and varied sort of place to go after sunset on Koh Rong.
