Koh Samui has a beach for every kind of traveller. Chaweng is best for nightlife and activities, while Lamai offers a more relaxed atmosphere. Silver Beach is a small bay with clear water, and Choeng Mon is great for swimming. For a quieter escape, head to Bophut, Maenam or the west coast. December to April is generally a good time to visit, while October and November bring more rain and rougher sea conditions.

Las playas de Koh Samui van desde la animada Chaweng hasta calas tranquilas en las costas norte y oeste. En la costa este, como Chaweng y Lamai, el mar puede estar agitado y llover mucho en octubre y noviembre; la costa oeste es el lugar para ver la puesta de sol.

1. Chaweng Beach, Koh Samui
Cañones de espuma y batallas en la playa
Nam: The most popular beach on Koh Samui, stretching for around 7 km along the east coast. Expect white sand, plenty of beachfront restaurants, hotels, water activities and lively nightlife. Visit early in the morning for a quieter experience.
Destacado
Las crew de bares convierten Chaweng Beach Road en un largo carril de agua. Verás cañones de espuma afuera de los clubes, estaciones de recarga en mini-mercados, y equipos de recogida con tambores y cubos. Los DJs pinchan cerca del área de Green Mango, y los bares de playa establecen líneas de salpicaduras a lo largo de la arena. La vibra mezcla energía de fiesta y de piscina, así que puedes nadar por la mañana y luego unirte a la calle desde el mediodía en adelante. Los taxis y los taxis en bicicleta esquivan las zonas mojadas, así que camina por la franja principal y usa los carriles laterales cuando necesites un descanso. Muchos hoteles están cerca de la acción, lo que facilita los reinicios para equipos y duchas. Para grupos que desean un gran chapuzón sin el caos total, Chaweng llega al punto dulce.

Mae Nam, Ko Samui District, Surat Thani
Nam: A long, quiet beach on Koh Samui's west coast and one of the island's best places to watch the sunset. The water stays shallow far from the shore, which suits families with young children, but at low tide the sea pulls back a long way, so check the tide before you swim.
