Welcome to Hotels in Koh Samui
KOH SAMUI
The third largest Island in Thailand, 15 miles by 12 miles. Koh Samui lies off
Thailand's Eastern peninsular. Just over an hour flight from Bangkok. The main activity is
"beaching" on the magnificent beaches with clear blue water and golden sands.
The most popular beaches are Lamai and Chaweng, where swimming, water sports and resting
under the shade of palm trees is the way of life. Hiring a car is one of the best ways to
explore the scenic hinterland of lush forest, tumbling waterfalls and temples. Maenam
beach situated on the northern shores of Koh Samui is ideally placed to follow the trail
through the coconut and durian plantations to the highest point on the Island, where
panoramic views can be enjoyed. Watch out for the ling kang monkeys specially trained to
pick coconuts. The main nightlife center is around Chaweng.
