Many seasoned travelers speak of Koh Samui as the best place to spend the winter. According to the opinions of experienced tourists, having once visited this island, you will not want to return to Pattaya, Phuket, or anywhere else. Where is Koh Samui located? Ko Samui (Koh Samui, Thai - เกาะสมุย) is the name often pronounced by Thais as Kohsam. The second largest island in Thailand after Phuket. Municipally belongs to the province of Surat Thani. The area of ​​Koh Samui is 228 thousand km2 and 63 thousand people live permanently on it. For a second, imagine that the population of Bali is 3.5 million people + a million tourists. Koh Samui is the very mysterious island of Thailand with white sand on secluded beaches, an abundance of vegetation and landscapes that fall in love at first sight. Koh Samui on the map is located in the warm Gulf of Thailand of the Pacific Ocean. The island is remote from the continent - in order to get to the nearest port on the mainland, it is necessary to cover a distance of about 40 km. The climate of Koh Samui differs from the climate of many regions of Thailand - the rainy season and the heat season are not so pronounced here. Hot weather persists twelve months of the year. The peak of high temperatures falls on April and early May - the air warms up to +40 °C. Light torrential rains begin in May, with the heaviest rainfall occurring in September. Big waves, storms and muddy waters are not typical of Koh Samui, because it is sheltered by the waves of the ocean in the Gulf of Thailand. The water on the island is always clear and warm - 27-29 ° C, which makes the rest comfortable almost at any time of the year.
