To the east of the island, is the most famous and lively beach of Koh Samui. Its turquoise water, its coral reefs and white sand extending over 7km, will delight lovers of the ocean. You can also easily get a massage, braid hair, perfect care of your body while enjoying the beach. In winter, the sea is rougher and deeper, and it will be the right time to play with the waves. In summer, calmer and shallower, it will allow you to be asleep on an inflatable mattress

• Lamai Beach

Often considered as the little sister of Chaweng, this beach is the second island in importance. The sea is a bit rough at Chaweng due to the absence of the coral reef. This place remains more wild, although bars girls start here also to become a little overbearing ... the south, do not miss Hin Ta Hin Yai and Hua Thanon beach. In the south, this is not the place most ideal for swimming but this almost deserted area offers seclusion and tranquility peerless.

Snorkelling
Koh Samui beaches are not renowned for offering outstanding snorkelling opportunities, but a few spots around the island offer decent underwater landscapes filled with tropical marine life. Most of these interesting skin diving sites are located in small or hidden coves, so getting to them to enjoy a swim in an aquarium-like environment is something of an exciting soft-adventurous journey off the beaten track.

Wind surfing
Of all the water-based board sports, wind surfing, which harnesses the power of the wind to push you across the water, is surely one of the most exhilarating and most physically demanding.
