Nightlife in Karon is comparatively low-key. The main cluster of beer bars with music and videos is in the open-front complex in front of the Islandia Park Resort in Patak Road. Better for conversation is the New Friend bar opposite. On the same side, Blue Moon Massage is open 11:00 - 01:00 daily. The Gun bar in Patak Road offers music and videos in unpretentious surroundings. On the beach road beside the South Sea Resort, another cluster of beer bars has rather bright lighting. The Little Mermaid Scandinavian restaurant/bar is Patak Road is a good place to eat before bar hopping.
