Koh Samui Beaches

The beaches of Samui are still virgin and unspoiled unlike those beaches of other Thai islands such as Phuket. Enjoy the crystal clear water of the sea and enjoy the fine sandy beaches for which Koh Samui Thailand is known for around the world.  More about the beaches in our section on Samui beaches.

A great benefit of choosing Koh Samui Thailand over other Thai destinations is that there are several others great but somewhat smaller tropical Thai islands near Samui. Many travelers visiting Koh Samui Thailand choose to spend a day or two at nearby Koh Tao or Koh Phangan Island.

Koh Phangan of course is famous with party seekers around the world as the legendary full moon parties are hosted each month during full moon on this neighboring island of Koh Samui.

Samui Resort Towns
