Lotus Beach Bar & Restaurant

Lotus Beach Bar & Restaurant sits on the sand at the far end of Sairee Beach on Koh Tao, with cushions and low tables facing the sunset. Evenings are lively, with music playing and a fire show that starts around 19:00.

The fire show features spinning and baton throwing, and guests can join in for a small donation. Sunset happy hour is good value, with deals such as two cocktails for 200 baht, and the drinks are served without plastic straws.

The kitchen serves Thai dishes including grilled chicken and mango sticky rice. The bar opens daily from 15:00 until midnight, making it a relaxed place for a sunset drink that turns into a night out.
