New Gym in Koh Phangan
Koh Phangan is where the healthy people live and Chaloklum is therefore the best place on the island! A great way to get or stay healthy, besides the great food we find here in Thailand, and especially in Chaloklum, is to stay fit and keep your body in shape. And that has never been as easy as now! Since the beginning of December, we now have a brand new gym in Chaloklum!
The Press – Gym & Fitness Club, is the only fitness club and gym on the north coast of Koh Phangan. The Press offers one of the best values on the Koh Phangan. The new gym is located just 1km from the beach and fishermen village of Chaloklum. The Press is positioned to offer a convenient, fun and powerful workout environment to the diverse mix of scuba divers, travelers, locals and expatriates who frequent the relaxed, picturesque north coast of Koh Phangan. We see many sportive people in Chaloklum running and bicycling, wake boarding and kite surfing. Many people here feel that the newest gym of Koh Phangan is a great addition to Chaloklum’s countless recreation possibilities.

The Gym
The Press offers all new, high-quality cardio gear, weight machines and ample free-weights to satisfy those looking to either keep trim or get big. The Press is fully air-conditioned and the scenic.
