Khao Lak
Khao Lak is also renowned for being one of the Andaman coast’s most breathtaking sunset spots as well as being home to popular tourist attractions like Memories Beach, Had Nang Thong (Black Sand Beach), The Khao Lak Lighthouse, Kuek Kak Beach, Pak Weep Beach, Bang Sak Beach and many more. Most of the beaches here features impressive accommodation options as well as shops and restaurants for convenience.
Koh Samui
Samui is the third largest Island in Thailand and the largest in an archipelago of more than 80 islands that includes the Ang Thong National Marine Park, a kayaking paradise and day Trip from Koh Samui. While Samui is small enough to be circumnavigated in just a couple of hours by motorbike or car, the Island features such a variety of Beaches and activities that it would be impossible to experience everything in a single visit. There are so many beautiful beaches here like Chaweng, Lamai, Taling Ngam, and Natien. Besides plentiful nature, the Island is also full of History and Culture.
Activities around Koh Samui include cooking courses, yoga instruction, Muay Thai training, scuba diving, and even golf. While there are a few quieter Beaches that are ideal for relaxation, particularly those that feature some of the finest 5-star resorts in the world, and some that exude old-world charm, such as Bo Phut, which features converted, old Chinese shophouses, Samui is a lively, exciting place than it was a few decades ago. Koh Samui has developed into its own style of Island paradise, retaining much of its natural beauty while offering nearly every imaginable activity or service for the ultimate beach Holiday.
