Essential Information: When to go and what you'll need
Getting Around
Koh Samui is a fairly compact island with only a few main roads. Getting around on foot is usually your best option for sightseeing. Hiring a motorbike is popular with many tourists and makes navigating around Koh Samui relatively fuss free.
When to Visit
December to March are the best times to visit Koh Samui when the relatively cooler temperatures are less stifling, there is little chance of rain and you will enjoy 8 hours of sun. October and November represent the rainy season but with temperatures reaching upwards of 30°C even during the fresher months, you can confidently book flights to Koh Samui for most times of the year.
Shopping in Koh Samui
The large Central Festival Samui shopping centre is Koh Samui’s best shopping location, filled with countless options from designer labels to brilliant bargains as good as anything you’ll find in Bangkok. Lamai Walking Street is also recommended with its aromatic street food options, handmade gifts and clothing, while Lamai Night Plaza is a great way to experience one of Koh Samui’s captivating Night Markets.
Food and Drink in Koh Samui
Not only is Koh Samui home to some of Thailand’s most delectable renditions of its famed cuisine, it also offers a fine setting in which to savour it. Fragrant curries, tantilising Pad Thai and freshly-caught seafood can be found across Koh Samui, a culinary experience enhanced by spectacular views from a hilltop restaurant or under the starry sky on the beach. Head to Chaweng Beach for a wide array of eating options, from upscale restaurants to charming street food choices.
Zip-lining Adventures
Combine adventure with a unique way of seeing this beautiful island by zip-lining through Koh Samui's canopy. Fly through the stunning rainforest with views of the forest floor below, waterfalls ahead and you may even catch a little exotic wildlife right alongside you! For those who’d rather explore Koh Samui at ground-level, there are also numerous 4x4 safari and quad biking tours available.
