KOH SAMUI

note :

This page is about koh samui island only, if you want to see :

- koh tao

- charm churee villa - koh tao

- koh phangan

- nangyuan island

- angthong national marine park.

they are in the different pages.

Koh samui not as popular as phuket. maybe because limited flight to koh samui.

air asia havent opened their flight to samui. ( 2013, written )

Maybe because thai airway monopoly their route.

we visited ( were shown below )

if you have much time in samui, maybe u should visit :

- Silver beach ( below from lamai beach, look at map)

- Wat plai laem temple

- Na muang waterfalls

CHAWENG BEACH @ midday.
if u visit koh samui, choose chaweng beach area to stay. the beach is beautiful, crowded, and many restaurants/ shops open along the chaweng beach road. (next to the beach)

chaweng beach @ afternoon.. cloudy

chaweng beach

Bophut beach

lamai beach

lamai beach - this beach is more clean compare to chaweng, but at morning, cant see clear. because we re picked @7.30 or 8am to the pier for one day trip.

we stayed in lamai beach, but we did one day trip for 3 days in arow.
so we didnt have much time to chill at this beach at afternoon.
after we did one day trip, we re not going home, but visit hinta hin yai, big buddha temple, ladyboy show/ cabaret, hunting food, shopping, and take a walk along chaweng beach road and lamai beach road.

THAI DISHES

Hmmmm What i like about thai food. not about the sour TOM YUM.
But all thai food that not sour..

unfortunately, not much that i can post if about food
because while i was travelling, the dishes was empty after 5 minutes served on table LOL
also we have no clues where to eat, and eat wherever and whenever we're hungry and got time.

and the previous visit i never pay attention to food, just like when i visited bangkok.
none of them.

So this is all, that i have captured..
i cant remember each name.. sorry : )
