This place is considered another famous tourist attraction in Thailand and abroad. There are both diving and kayaking activities. Most importantly, it has one of the most beautiful viewpoints in Thailand. On this trip, I bought a one-day trip tour from Koh Samui. Where will I go? How beautiful is it? Let's see 😍😍 📍Locations - Diving at Koh Wao - Koh Sam Sao - Koh Mae Ko (viewpoint of the emerald green sea) - Koh Wua Talap - Pha Chan Charat Viewpoint #islandtour

#samuiisland Our day in Koh Samui has been a whirlwind of adventure and breathtaking sights. We indulged in mouthwatering seafood delights and embarked on an unforgettable journey to Angthong National Park by boat. From swimming to snorkeling and kayaking, we immersed ourselves in the wonders of the ocean. Climbing 500 meters to the viewpoint tested our endurance, but the panoramic vista at the summit made it all worthwhile. Despite moments of exhaustion, the beauty surrounding us rejuvenated our spirits. Koh Samui continues to enchant us with its natural splendor and exhilarating experiences, leaving us eager for more adventures ahead.

#weekendgetaways Here's a challenge to everyone: conquer Koh Samui over a weekend. That is, to climb the area's highest point! You'll find this place in Mu Ko Ang Thong National Park, about an hour by speedboat, from Koh Samui. It's more than doable. Here's how (and why) you should do it: Prebooking a tour online is an option. You're also good to go if you bargain at a roadside tour booth (what I always do in Thailand). They'll pick you up from your hotel and off you go to Nathon Pier. At Mu Ko Ang Thong, if you have the grit and energy, go for the Pha Jun Jaras trail on Koh Wua Ta Lap. It's a steep, challenging, and rocky hike of about 30-45 minutes, covering 550m in distance. The viewpoint at the top is 620m above sea level - about 5 times Singapore's Bukit Timah. While it certainly is physically exhausting (75% of the group gave up and went back down along the way), it's doable, even in flip flops, like I did (though please wear proper shoes to be extra safe). Your guide from the boat will follow you, so don't be afraid! There are also 3-4 rest points along the way. If hiking isn't your thing, stay on the gorgeous beach for a cooling swim. It's spotlessly clean with a beach bar and restaurant. Note that as this is a marine national park, water sports are usually not allowed. Entry fee is 200THB (usually included in your tour price). This was the main highlight for me in Samui - exhilerating and beautiful experience, beats any of the islands I've been to in Phuket. So pack your sunscreen and sunglasses, and go conquer Samui! #samui

My girlfriend and I recently took a trip away from the main island of Ko Samui, and did a day tour to the outside islands and it was an unforgettable experience. We took a day trip to another island Ko Pha Ngan and also to Ang Thong National Marine Park, which has the Blue Lagoon (Emerald Lake) Both of which were absolutely stunning and should be protected at all costs. We first started the trip to Pha Ngan and the views there were incredible. The beaches were white sand and the water was crystal clear. We were able to snorkel and see all the wild sea life swimming around the shallow water. We spent most of the time swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing. Not to mention taking beautiful photos as there were many view points. After that, we had our lunch and made our way to our final destination and little did I know, Ang thong would be one of the most unforgettable places I would visit. Ang Thong National Marine Park was even more beautiful than Ko Pha Ngan. The islands were limestone and the water was a deep blue, and we were able to do bamboo rafting around the island through the caves and if you were daring you could even raft further into the ocean! What an amazing experience! We were able to see cavesand waterfalls, and hidden lagoons. After rafting, we entered the national park and were blown away by the view of the Blue Lagoon… words can’t describe what we saw. Not only that, as we were exploring even see a Dusky Leaf Monkey in the trees! This was my absolute favorite moment, especially knowing how rare it was to even see one and it was just sitting there watching us. After that, we came down from the park and relaxed at the beach and made our way home. It was fun filled day and even though we were exhausted by the end, it was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an adventurous, yet relaxing vacation. Here are some tips for your trip: Go during the dry season (November to April) for the best weather. Bring sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses, water poof bag. Please be respectful to the locals and the protection of the area. #island #islandtravel #lagoon #monkey #rafting #touristsattraction #samui
