Koh Samui in Thailand: The perfect recipe for a great vacation

If you’re wondering what to do in Koh Samui, you’ve come to the right place.

We love Thailand and we have visited this wonderful country countless times.

The people are so friendly, the food is amazing and the beaches are plentiful!

Koh Samui is no different.

Thailand’s second-largest island really has it all. And there are so many things to do in Koh Samui that we’ve visited three times!

When looking for a place to stay in January 2019 to work on our documentary film about sustainable coffee, we chose Koh Samui as our base for one and a half months.

Even if you don’t stay that long (or work while on vacation/call yourself a digital nomad), Koh Samui has so much to offer!

It’s one of the most popular destinations in Thailand – and for good reason.

In this travel guide to Koh Samui, we will tell you everything you need to know about the island and share all of our best travel tips, secrets and the best beaches.

And by everything, we mean around 10,000 words in our Koh Samui guide. So if you’re looking for anything specific, navigate using the menu below the photo.

Update: We revisited Koh Samui at the beginning of 2024 with our son Adrian and have updated the guide to reflect that visit as well.
