About Koh Samui

Koh Samui is a Thai island in the Gulf of Thailand, with coconut palms, white beaches, a giant golden Buddha and a base for nearby marine parks.

Koh Samui, one of Thailand's largest islands, is ringed by coconut palms and beaches, with a hilly jungle interior. Chaweng has the longest stretch of white sand and the liveliest nightlife, Lamai is quieter, and Bophut's Fisherman's Village keeps old wooden shophouses by the shore. On a small islet joined to the north-east shore by a causeway, the 12-metre seated Big Buddha looks across the water.

Top-ranked sights in Koh Samui: Wat Khunaram (Mummified Monk), Big Buddha Temple (Wat Phra Yai), Na Muang Waterfall.
