Koh Samui, Thailand

[Alex Dally]

I just returned from Koh Samui and have to say that it is a beautiful place. The weather was fantastic, we were very lucky apparently as we had just missed some bad monsoon rains. I reccommend anyone to check it out for a holiday, I booked my hotel and our sightseeing tours through one website which was very informative and the staff were very helpful.

Happy holidaying

Ko Samui Thailand

Ko Samui is located in the Gulf of Thailand, approximately 84 kilometers east of Surat Thani Province, Southern of Thaildnd, or approximately 700 kilometers south of Bangkok. Known as the Coconut Island, Ko Samui is one of the most famous and popular attractions of Thailand. Hat Chaweng and Hat Lamai are Ko Samuis most beautiful and most popular beaches. Both have a huge selection of accommodations suitable for every budget.

The nightlife of each beach is different: Hat Chaweng is better for couples, women and families, while single men are drawn to the beer bar culture of Hat Lamai. These resorts, as well as Na Thon (Samui's main town), have communications, exchange and car/motorcycle hire facilities. Other beaches include Hat Choeng Mon, Hat Mae Nam in the north and Hat Na Thon, the island's major seafront settlement where shops, restaurants and tour agencies are concentrated. The best time to visit Ko Samui is from February to April when the sea is calm. The Southern dialect and the standard Thai language are spoken while English is widely understood in tourist areas.

Getting to Ko Samui

By air
Bangkok Airways flies from Bangkok to Ko Samui 13 times daily. The flight takes about one hour and 10 minutes. It also offers daily flights between Phuket and Samui.

By bus
Air-conditioned and non air-conditioned buses leave Bangkok's Southern Bus Terminal for Surat Thani several times daily. The trip takes about 11 hours.

Koh Samui's repertoire of things to do and see is varied and interesting. From mummified monks to the famous grandma and grandpa rocks to attractive waterfalls and more there's nothing to stop you having a blast on the island.

For those interested in religious imagery and architecture the Big Buddha will impress - especially at sunset. The take-with-a-pinch-of-salt ladyboy shows are good for a laugh.

What makes Koh Samui still a tourist favourite is that the beaches are kept clean and their is just so much you can do from the Island. If you're into diving, Koh Tao is very close by which is one of Thailand's best destinations for diving.
