Visitors to Koh Samui who
are looking for fun, excitement, and a terrific time on the tropical island are
sure to get what they’re looking for. Koh
Samui attractions run far and wide, be it for the beach lover or the
reptile enthusiast. No matter what kind of fun you are looking for, Koh Samui
is certain to offer it along with other surprises.
One of the most
entertaining tourist attractions in the island is the bungee jumping venue
located at Chaweng Beach. Fans of extreme sports will be delighted in jumping
off the 170-foot crane which has nothing more than a piece of elastic wound
around the person’s ankle to break the fall. Nothing screams adrenaline rush
and a knuckle-gripping activity than this.
Since the jump takes
place from a crane and not from a cliff, jumpers take the plunge toward a pool
instead of sharp rocky terrain. Like with most Koh Samui attractions, safety is the top priority. Should the
elastic around the ankle snap, jumpers will drop straight into the pool, which
is way safer than the unforgiving rocks lying on the bottom of a steep cliff.
If you think bungee
jumping isn’t thrilling enough, you have the option to put a bit of break in
the elastic around your ankle. This extra break will allow you to plunge
slightly into the pool surface instead of merely being suspended over it. If
you have the guts to spare for this alternative, then go for it! Hey you only
live once.
Aside from the rush that
comes with taking the big leap, jumpers are also offered a breath-taking view
from the top of the crane. You’ll be able to see many other Koh Samui attractions, such as the
Chaweng Beach, the sparkling waters surrounding the gulf of Thailand, and the
Reggae Pub. Think of it as a two-in-one deal: you get to see a spectacular view
and you get to make that
death-defying jump.
You can walk into the
bungee jumping venue anytime, but if you would like to make sure that you get
to do it on a specific day and time, you can book your session in advance. You
can bungee jump in either the morning or night. If you prefer the latter, the
place has a bar where you can relax before or after your jump. There is also a
bar nearby, the Soi Reggae, where you can head to after making the thrilling
leap. For sure, the bungee jumping activity will be the main topic of the
event.
