Koh Samui
Koh Samui island has always been a legend, with
its palm trees, hammocks, coloured fruit juices
with ice, blue sea... in short, the perfect beach
vacation despite the numerous hotels and beach
resorts.
Koh Samui is part of the Anthong islands and is
situated at about 80 km off Thailand’s east coast.
The airport is one of the most beautiful in the world,
with its magnificent tropical gardens.
The harbour lies in direct proximity to neat villages
and palm tree bordered beaches. The inhabitants
are usually buddists and extremely friendly.
Today tourism is their main source of income,
in
former times it was fishery and coconut plantation.
The processing of coconuts still plays a small role
and gives the whole island a nice coconut oil smell.
Besides water sports, one can do a hole number
of other things, like temples visits, treks to waterfalls
or ship tours. |

The most popular and longest beaches in Koh Samui
are Chaweng, Lamai and Maenam. Thanks to their
size they are never overcrowded despite the
noumerous hotels and beach resorts. People who
want to spend their vacation in a place thats more
quiet can choose among 23 other beaches.
The monsoon time in Koh Samui lies between
November and February, then temperatures are approximately of 25 degrees. But despite the showers
there is still enough sunshine also during the rain
time, because the wind usually drives the rain clouds
out fast. In the dry time of March to October the temperatures increase up to 35 degrees.
At the north of Koh Samui, there are the islands Koh Phangan (well known for the «Fullmoon parties»)
and Koh Tao, a small island which belongs to the diving
fans favourites. |
