Samui is the third largest Island in Thailand and the largest in an archipelago of more than 80 islands that includes the Ang Thong National Marine Park, a kayaking paradise and day Trip from ko Samui. While Samui is small enough to be circumnavigated in just a couple of hours by motorbike or car, the Island features such a variety of Beaches and activities that it would be impossible to Experience everything in a single visit. There are so many beautiful Beaches here like Chaweng, Lamai, Taling Ngam, and Natien. Besides plentiful nature, the Island is also full of History and Culture. 

activities around ko Samui include cooking courses, yoga instruction, Muay Thai training, scuba diving, and even Golf. While there are a few quieter Beaches that are ideal for relaxation, particularly those that feature some of the finest 5-star resorts in the world, and some that exude old-world charm, such as Bo Phut, which features converted, old Chinese shophouses, Samui is a lively, exciting place than it was a few decades ago. Ko Samui has developed into its own style of Island paradise, retaining much of its natural beauty while offering nearly every imaginable activity or service for the ultimate beach Holiday.

 Be careful walking on the Beach or swimming at night, particularly if alone.

 Make sure your scuba diving instructor is fully certified.
