Koh Taen..

April and May I think are some of the nicest months around Samui, ... warm seas albe they not very deep in many places... but there are good spots to find!

This is near the Intercontinental Hotel in the Thaling Ngam area, there's a good access point to the right of the hotel... and no one seemed to be bothered about walking along the beach or along the huge boat dock.

A few clam diggers, but virtually no one on the beautiful beach...

I did get droned though!

Hua Thanon (The Muslim Village) On Samui, The water front now looks very impressive..

On the sharp curve where the 7 11 is...

Seen today off Samui... sent by a member who asked me to share it if I wished!

A twirling tornado!

New fun place to go! Especially for anyone with kids...

Located between Maenam and Ban Tai, almost opposite the Susco Gas station .. (What used to be the Esso station)

Common areas are free to enter ... some activities are user pay... They assured me, that Farang pays same price as Thais!

Went there with my son and friend both 4.5 years old, they loved it.

Really good food, prized for locals.

Had noddle soup with spareribs for 80 baht and half liter Chang for 100 baht.

Was the only westerner there, lots of Thai arrived around 4 PM for food and live music until midnight.

Go there with your Thai friends, I will return for sure.

And yes, same prize for Farang as for Thais.

What was the prize?

I think busier in the evenings than during the day..... but it's an attractive area for people to go!

What was the prize?

50.000 baht I think, interested to participate.

From Ban Rak beach area today ... Still very low tides around Samui!

Safari Park NaMuang waterfalls two. Amazing how many tourists from many countries visiting Samui in June... several hundred, just this morning...

A rare view of Koh Toa, from Samui yesterday.... taken from the Infinity Resort, in Ban Por.

Looking toward Haad Rin, Koh Phangan...

The whole of Koh Phangan

Some of the maze of sixty eight swimming pools, and part Ban Por beach

Things change each year.took a walk today and a photo in south end lamai beach and compared it to one of my photos last year.

Yes amazing how some beaches have changed over the years... Virt .... some years the sand come back again...

Ban Por beach, sunset last night!

Sunset

I discovered a beach on the weekend that I had not seen before, I reckon one of the nicest small beaches in SW side of Samui... I've seen...

It located in front of Centara  Samui Villas,...

But the is a dirt track non guests can access...  It's a bit confusing as sign for the track  says "Private" but also sign for "Cool Bar" ... 

 

We were not kicked out! 

 

 

sorry picture a little hazy! 

 

 

Not overrun with too many people!

 

They have opened up a better view at the Conrad Resort... looking over these two bays. Just near parking area.

 

 

View of the Five Islands and some of the Marine Park islands in the back. From the Conrad.

Just checked out on Google,  ... I was not sure but it's called Laem Set Beach....  Just watch out for Laem set road on the ring road... between Hua Thanon and Thaling Ngam...

 

Go past the horse place and it's a dirt path that says "private" on the right side! 

 

Nice looking horse!

 

 

Wow!! Amazing Photos dude

Used to be one of my special, romantic places to go, around the beginning of the 21st century  . 

The Laem Set Inn Resort And Spa used to be there.
