Koh Samui, Thailand

Ko Samui also often locally shortened to Samui; Thai: เกาะสมุย, pronounced is an island off the east coast of Thailand. Geographically in the Chumphon Archipelago, it is part of Surat Thani Province, though as of 2012, Ko Samui was granted municipal status and thus is now locally self-governing.

Tourist destination


1. Visit Koh Samui’s Famous Big Buddha
The best known and most famous of all the landmarks on this island is the Big Buddha temple. Sitting just off the corner of Koh Samui on a little tiny island is a 12 meter tall statue of Buddha in a seated position.

2. Take In The Interesting Sights At Hin Ta And Hin Yai
All throughout Thailand you will see things that shock and surprise you, but maybe nothing quite like this. The rocks were discovered by locals many years ago and are naturally shaped to look like male and female genitalia. The rocks have been fondly named Ta (Grandpa) and Yai (Grandma.)

3. See Awesome Scenery At Namuang Waterfall
Set in Jungle surroundings are two beautiful waterfalls that are certainly worth a visit, the waterfalls are known as Na Muang 1 and Na Muang 2, the first waterfall flows into a small pool that you can swim in, the second waterfall is about thirty minutes further uphill and is also just as stunning

4. Go on a 4WD Jungle Safari Tour
Enjoy the highlights of Koh Samui on a Jeep Safari tour.
You’ll see explore sights such as Mummified Monk, Namuang Waterfall and Buddha’s Magic Garden.

5. Meet The Ladyboys at Chaweng Beach
When you are in the area near Chaweng Beach there are many different ladyboys shows on offer, they are all close to each other and vying for your hard earned money so competition is fierce and you will often find they are trying to drag you into their show.

6. Hide Away At The Secret Buddha Garden
Back in 1976 Nim Thongsuk started putting up many beautiful statues in the land that he and his family owned, the land is hidden away in the center of the island and surrounded by lush forests

7. Take a trip to Angthong Marine Park
Board the big tour boat and travel to Angthong Marine Park on a full-day excursion from Samui Island.
Kayak along the stunning coastline, hike to the top of Mae Koh for views of the Emerald Lagoon, and snorkel at Wua Talap Island. Enjoy lunch on the boat.

8. Time For A New Temple At Wat Plai Laem
If you have been in Thailand for a while you would have seen many an ancient temple, this one is fairly new but it still uses the techniques that have been in place for hundreds of years. The feature of the temple is an 18 arm statue of Guanyin, Guanyin is the Goddess of Mercy and Compassion
