If you decide to tour Koh Samui by land then
you need to have a car. You can easily
find a local shop that offers a rent-a-car service for tourists. With a car, you can tour the island by simply
following wherever the road takes you. You
can even have your own side trips along the way without having to worry about
transportation. Be sure to take a shortstop
to visit Koh Samui’s magnificent waterfalls named Namuang I & II. You can also join the tour groups that visit
the waterfalls on a daily basis if you prefer to have company. Just a reminder, wear only slip-proof
footwear since the area leading to the falls can be slippery.
Touring Koh Samui by boat is another experience
you don’t want to miss. Bored of staying
at your Koh Samui hotel and looking
for a new adventure while in the island? Then the boat tour is for you. Ever
heard of the Angthong Marine Park? It is
a chain of uninhabited islands and you can visit this national park by going on
a day trip by boat. You need a whole day
to be able to tour the park. You can
either rent your own boat for the trip or you can join a tour. At the Angthong Park, tourists can enjoy
private beaches and other activities such as hiking and snorkelling. The park also has a museum that displays some
of Koh Samui’s history.
Are you familiar with the long-tail boat
tour? Some establishments at the island like
the Five Islands Restaurant offer a boat tour using private long-tail boats,
hence the name. Tourists can fully enjoy
the beauty of a secluded beach while snorkelling all day under the sunny Koh Samui weather through this
tour.
Sunset cruises are also available during your
stay at the island. You can choose if
you want to go on a speedboat, or a yacht, or even on craft-catamarans for the
cruise. Experience the beautiful sunset
at Koh Samui up close instead of simply watching it through your Koh Samui hotel window.
Enjoy the magnificent beauty of Koh Samui and
have fun exploring the island by either boat or by car.
