What to see in Ko Samui

Ko Samui is fringed by beautiful beaches. Busier beaches, with numerous facilities and activities, include Lamai and Chaweng. Comparatively quieter beaches include Choeng Mon and Bophut. Visit the fishing village at Bophut and dine on freshly caught seafood. The Big Buddha statue, Wat Khunaram Ko Samui, with its mummified monk, Laem Sor Pagoda, and the Chinese-style Old House are among the island’s cultural attractions. Natural features include the Na Mueang and Hin Lat waterfalls, and Laem Set’s coral beds. Kids often enjoy Samui Aquarium and Samui Butterfly Garden / Insect Museum. For a vibrant night scene, visit Chaweng’s bars and clubs.

When to go to Ko Samui

Ko Samui attracts visitors year-round, but the waters may be choppier and underwater visibility (for snorkelling and diving) reduced in the rainy season (September to November). December to February is the relatively cool season and brings the most visitors to the island; book accommodations in advance.
