The views and the experience are second to none. Surrounded by forest and jungle it is an experience to see Koh Samui in a different light away from the bars, clubs, beaches and restaurants. Both waterfalls are popular with the locals and the tourists.

Located in the north of the Island is Bophut Beach Samui Thailand. Mae Nam to the west and Bang Rak to the east. The beach extends a few kilometres from Big Buddha to Mae Nam Beach. Bophut is one of the oldest places on the Island.

Far north-eastern tip of the island lies Choeng Mon Beach Samui. For beaches, Koh Samui has enough options to please all manner of beachgoers. A beach for party lovers looking for live DJs and a festive vibe and those looking for solitude with palm trees to swing in hammocks.

Stretching 5km from Choeng Mon in the north to Chaweng Noi at its southern tip is Chaweng Beach Samui, Thailand. A popular and commercial beach for party-goers. Vendors patrol the main Chaweng Beach Samui selling everything from beach bags to snacks, bikinis to henna tattoos.

Phra Yai Temple popular name Big Buddha Samui creates a spectacular sight on the island of Samui. The Temple is located at the end of Bang Rak on the bend to Choeng Mon. The access to the temple is via a causeway.

Experience Thai culture at Wat Plai Laem Samui Thailand. The temple is north of Koh Samui a short drive from Big Buddha Temple on Koh Fan. Originally built in 2004. Despite its modern date, the temple is in keeping with the older temples in Samui.

On the south coast of the island in the Gulf of Thailand lies Bang Kao Beach Samui. Bang Kao is a 20-minute drive to the busier beaches of Lamai and Chaweng on the east coast of Samui. The south of Koh Samui Island is not as commercialised as the east coast of Samui.

The village of Taling Ngam forms part of the coast. The area has not seen much change compared to other parts of the Island. Taling Ngam village is like time stood still. Secluded resorts make this the perfect quiet get away.
