WELCOME |
Located
of Thailand's Southeast Coast, beautiful Koh Samui enjoys
a laid back pace of life, palm-fringed beaches and and a warm
welcome. Samui is a relatively small island to explore, so
head away from the main resorts to see a more rural way of
life. Each evening, the east coast springs to life, with Chaweng
and Lamai offering an endless supply of places to eat, drink
and be merry! |

WHAT
TO DO |
Koh
Samui's beaches are the island's main draw, but there's plenty
to do besides. The series of islands off the coast that form
the Ang Thong national park offer excellent diving and snorkelling
opportunities, and away from the coast, Samui's interior is
lush and worth visiting. |
|
WHERE
TO STAY |
Koh
Samui has a number of resorts each with their own character
- although getting around is quite easy so nowhere os too far
away! Chaweng is the main resort, with a great range of bars,
shops, restaurants and hotels, ranging from simple properties
making a good base to more luxurious properties on the beach.
On the north coast, the smaller resorts of Mae Nam and Bo Phut
offer a more laid back base, but only about 10 minutes from
Chaweng. Elsewhere, smaller resorts offer peaceful locations,
and with some of the islands best accommodation, these are often
worth a look, especially for a special holiday such as a honeymoon. |

It's
easy just to visit Koh Samui on holiday as it's such a beautiful
