Koh Samui is indeed a very interesting destination. Tourists are lured to this place because there are so many great things to do on the island, there’s the beach, and tons of other fun-filled activities. There are plenty of things to do in Koh Samui. Aside from being able to stroll around at numerous fine-sand beaches and catching the biggest fishes you have ever seen in your entire life, you can also explore the diversity of wildlife at Koh Samui.

Samui is home to the planet’s most amazing plant and animal life. One of the best things to do in Koh Samui is to visit the tigers. The Samui Tiger Zoo is the best place to check out these amazing creatures. The zoo allows visitors to get to know the very regal Bengal Tigers and leopard cubs. This is a lot different from other Koh Samui attractions, but for animal lovers out there and those who have kids, this is bound to be a hit.

The zoo offers a very convenient aquarium type area where visitors can watch these mighty creatures which roam freely in their own natural environment. It’s a rare opportunity to get to see tigers this up close and personal, so you’ll probably always remember your visit here. There is something absolutely disarming about these creatures frolicking and strolling in a relaxed manner---without the restrictions of very tight cages and other constricting boundaries. The good thing is that, visitors can also take pictures to take home as souvenirs.

Tigers are highly held creatures here in the island and so if one wants to try some unconventional things to do in Koh Samui, visiting the zoo is a very good idea. Individuals out there who are extremely brave can even go inside the cages and take pictures right next to baby tigers and fully grown tigers. If you are game, then make sure to bring your own camera. Professional photographers can also take photos for you can your loved ones for an inexpensive rate.

The Samui Tiger Zoo is not exclusive to tigers and leopards. Since it shares the same complex with the Orchid Zoo, there is a large variety of creatures one can see here too. There is a giant aquarium where one can get to know local marine life like turtles, sharks, and a number of rainbow coloured tropical fishes. If you have kids with you, make sure that you include the visit to the zoo in your list of things to do Koh Samui.
