United for Ethical Elephant Conservation

Phangan Elephant Sanctuary, nestled on the picturesque island of Koh Phangan, and Samui Elephant Haven, located on the neighboring island of Koh Samui, are both dedicated to providing a safe haven for elephants who have endured years of mistreatment and exploitation. We are driven by a common mission – to rescue and rehabilitate these magnificent creatures while raising awareness about the importance of ethical and sustainable elephant tourism.

Both are owned and operated by a family with a deep-rooted passion for elephant welfare, the two sanctuaries have long been at the forefront of this noble cause. Our unwavering commitment to the well-being of elephants is reflected in our humane approach to caring for these gentle giants. Unlike the conventional tourist-oriented elephant camps that exploit these animals, Phangan Elephant Sanctuary and Samui Elephant Haven are havens where elephants can live a life free from chains and the burden of carrying tourists on their backs.
