Thai Experience – Koh Samui

The Kingdom of Thailand is the magnet for tourist from all across the Globe. Fascinating culture, tasty food and tropical beaches make this country widely popular and famous. Koh Samui is an island in the Gulf of Thailand offering unique and incredible Thai experience, but not so crowded with tourists like some other destinations. This island is big enough to discover amazing beaches and places with rice paddies, boasting coconut groves and tropical forests, yet small enough to drive it around for approximately two hours. Koh Samui villas and relaxed beach lifestyle enable a laid-back holiday most people dream about. The locals are very friendly and welcoming. Roads are lined with bars, restaurants and shops, but the interior of this island still has the authentic and charming Thai appearance.

Unlike some other parts of Thailand, this island is rarely exposed to rainy seasons and that allows longer touristic season for people looking for the sunny tropical beaches and crystal clear water. Anyhow, as on any tropical island, it is good to be ready for some sudden and less than hour long showers.Very popular beaches on Koh Samui are Lamai and Chaweng and for those looking for quiet and peaceful beaches, Bang Rak, Bophut, Choeng Mon and Mae Nam may be the better choices.

Koh Samui may not be the most beautiful island the kingdom of Thailand offers, but still it represents an oasis of breathtaking natural beauty with its luscious, dazzling coral lagoons, sandy beaches, coconut trees and picturesque waterfalls. This island is perfect for family vacations offering very friendly and pleasant atmosphere. Recently, Koh Samui has become very popular honeymoon destination, because of its romantic and relaxed scenery.
