What a surprise! We expected just the usual street market, but this was a real step up. Entertainment galore, food and shopping bargains, exceptional value Mojitos. Dont miss it - Friday nights :)

Fabulous restaurants and shops and a really great beach. Not crazy with bars and clubs like Chaweng is. The street markets on a Friday night are fun, lots of brilliant street food and other stalls. The beach is deep and clear of rocks. Plenty of restaurants have tables set up on the beach in the evening. Would be a great place to stay.
The Fisherman's Village night market offers lots of variety in terms of food, drinks and hand made souvenirs. Choices are great but they are a big pricey.
You'll be hard pressed to find fresher food than that available in restaurants in Bophut. A quaint village with tons of art shops, t-shirt stores and suit makers, its most valuable attribute has to be the food. We ate at Happy Elephant on the Beach twice because we liked it so much. The barracuda fish fingers were delish!
Need to walk >200m after passing the big sign. Not very big but just a quite narrow street with goods that you could find at a lot of other places. Not even close to Bangkok weekend market. A lot of western restaurats. A bit expensive in the neighbourhood.
We were staying at Bophut and our hotel was at a walking distance by the beach from the village. We went on a friday night since they have this special night market. It was really crowded but nice to walk around and have some local food on the streets. You will find some souvenir too, but I wont recommend to buy it there except if you are a good bargainer.
There are few good restaurant and bars around, our favorite is Karmasutra! great food and the staff is attentive and funny.
