Koh Samui
Koh Samui
Samui is the main island in the archipelago of more than 80 islands that comprises the Ang Thong National Marine Park, a haven for kayakers, and is a day excursion from Ko Samui. Samui is the third-largest island in Thailand. Samui is tiny enough to be circled in a vehicle or motorcycle in just a few hours, but the island has so many different beaches and things to do that it would be hard to enjoy them all in one trip.
History
Chaweng, Lamai, Taling Ngam, and Natien are just a few of the many pristine beaches in this area. The island is abundant in natural beauty as well as history and culture.
Cooking classes, yoga sessions, Muay Thai training, scuba diving, and even golf are among the activities available around Ko Samui.
While Samui has some calmer beaches that are great for relaxing, especially those that are home to some of the best 5-star resorts in the world, and some that radiate old-world charm, such as Bo Phut, which has converted ancient Chinese shophouses,
Samui is a more vibrant and dynamic area than it was a few decades ago. Keeping much of its natural beauty while providing practically every conceivable activity or service for the ultimate beach vacation, Ko Samui has evolved into its own style of island paradise.
Weather
Looking for the best weather recommendation in Koh Samui,tourists should visit during the dry season from December to March, when temperatures, rainfall and humidity are at their lowest. The weather during this period is great for hiking, exploring and sunbathing, so it’s a perfect time to visit the island.
