Cafe Art Ferry Donsak Pier
The name of the cafe is right at Donsak Pier. After we bought the ticket, there will be a cafe lesson and then a restaurant. But this is the Donsak Pier cafe zone. Before going to school, we can stop by to buy coffee or buy tea to drink, but we bought Penang tea. It looks very delicious. The atmosphere of the shop is a sea theme. When you enter, you can smell the coffee and tea. The smell is very fragrant. And their bread looks very delicious. While waiting for the boat, sit in this shop. They have a charging station for people to sit and work or charge. And the shop has both indoor and outdoor seating. The shop is decorated cutely. #thailand

The Inn at Koh Rat, Surat Thani
Rong Tiam Restaurant, a seafood restaurant with a nice atmosphere. In addition to fresh seafood and local food that you can't miss, this place has also converted houses into a homestay that is inviting to sleep in, highlighting many things that are their identity for visitors to experience. The houses and rooms have been renovated, separated into guest rooms. The back porch offers a place to sit and enjoy watching the sea. Koh Rat is therefore full of visitors almost all day long. #Gifts from traveling #Visit Surat Thani People who are passionate about the local way of life and are ready to get to know a small area that is old with history and uniqueness in culture.

Surat Thani, a stunning beauty as soon as you step out of the car
Donsak Pier, I must say, I really like this memory. But I don't know if it's just the feeling I got from riding the bus.
The feeling of sleeping on the bus and waking up is the image of the bustling city.
The morning sun contrasting with the water is so beautiful. Just stepping on the pier is heavenly. The staff provided good service in a southern accent.
When I got on the boat, I was afraid of the sun and hid because the only thing I couldn't ignore was the sea.

Baan Pimjai Cafe, a roadside cafe between Surat Thani and Nakhon Si Thammarat
Every time I pass by, I have to stop by every time. Baan Pim Jai
A roadside cafe that anyone who drives by must see the white one that catches the eye. How can you resist such a cute shop?❤️
Shop atmosphere 9/10
There are so many photo spots!!! Plus, the shop is decorated with glass, allowing plenty of natural light. It's perfect for taking beautiful photos🥰
Regular menu items
Plain croissant 8/10, fragrant with milk and butter. The shop will warm every piece for you.
Cold Americano 7/10, medium flavor, like a typical Americano.
Rose lychee soda 9/10, so delicious!!! The aroma of roses is cut with the sweet and sour taste of lychee juice, plus the fizz of soda. It's so refreshing after drinking it. It makes you feel less tired.
10 mouths saying it's not as good as tasting it. If you're driving past the shop, don't forget to stop by.🥰#cafe #cafereview #southernteam

on my way to Samui ⛴🌴 สมุยพี่มาแล้วจ๊ะ
Covid is getting better. We got to travel to Samui for the first time this year. This time, we drove to Samui. There were hardly any people on the boat. You could count the number of people. We didn't have to fight for space with anyone. No matter which angle you take a picture from, there were no people in it. I felt a bit sad and lonely. I wanted our country to be lively again. The view is still as beautiful as before. What's more, the sea water is crystal clear. They say that nature is recovering now. We're waiting for the day when it will be lively again. I want everyone to come visit and support the domestic economy. Let's keep moving forward. Keep fighting! #TakeYouToIsland #Samui #MissNature

Visit the Ban Koh Rat community, Don Sak
Koh Rat is a small island that is a fishing community. On the island, there are many homestays and restaurants. To get here, you have to cross the island via the Chalermsirirat Bridge, which is a sea bridge built by King Rama IX to help the villagers have a transportation route. (Sometimes during festivals, cars may be closed to cross the island, but you can park your car on the shore and rent a car to cross the island.)
When you cross the bridge, you will see the Kuan Yu Shrine and the Tabtim Shrine, located in front of the island. Koh Rat is not very large, so you can walk around and see nature and the way of life.
If you have time, you can stay at a homestay here for a night because many homestays are accommodations and serve fresh seafood buffets for customers to eat.
Sometimes, if the time is right, you will see the villagers selling fresh seafood at very cheap prices.

Seatran ferry to Koh Samui
Today I will share my journey to Koh Samui, Surat Thani Province. Actually, there are both planes and ferries to travel, but today we will go with the ferry. First, take a van from the transport or the airport to Donsak Pier, then buy a ferry ticket. The ferry leaves every hour. If anyone will bring a car, I recommend booking online because it fills up very quickly. When you arrive at Koh Samui, you can take a red car from Na Thon Pier to the hotel. #Get a discount without relying on luck

Don Sak is a peaceful town located before reaching Koh Samui, the jetty gateway to the island.
Don Sak is a charming, traditional Thai village, renowned for its friendly locals and tranquil atmosphere.
Hotel stays start at just 600 baht along the road to the jetty, making it an affordable and peaceful stop.
For a hassle-free journey, we highly recommend booking your ferry to Koh Samui in advance to avoid long waiting times.
#kohsamui The ferry fare is 180 baht per person each way to the island.

Hug villag
Hug village, entrance fee for adults 80 baht per person. Inside, there are horses to ride for an additional 50 baht. There is archery. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There is a white sheep following you like a tour guide, but the guide often cries out for milk, lol. I bought several bottles of milk for the sheep, but I had to give in because it was so cute and followed me. Another thing I like is that the horse has a very soft nose. I let you ride it and it wasn't naughty at all. Overall, it was very good and worth the price.

Beautiful nature at Riverwood Cafe.
On the way back from paying respects to Ai Khai in Sichon, we drove smoothly before reaching Surat Thani Airport. We found a cute cafe in the middle of the forest with beautiful nature at Riverwood Cafe.
Riverwood Cafe is located in Pak Phra Subdistrict, Don Sak District, Surat Thani Province. The cafe has a relaxing atmosphere with a forest style. The food and drinks are reasonably priced but taste great.

Traveling to Koh Raet is really great.
#Flying with trip
#Places to visit in Surat Thani
#Koh Raet
Koh Raet or Koh Raet is an island in the middle of the sea, but there is a bridge for cars to cross over. But you can park in front of the island because there is only a walkway around the island and a walkway connecting inside the island.
The island is located in Don Sak District, Surat Thani Province. At first, Chinese immigrants came to settle here. There was no water to use, so they dug a well. There is a shrine, a restaurant, a homestay. The villagers work as fishermen and provide tourism services. There are dolphins to see, but it depends on luck.

Surat Thani has crystal clear water. Everyone wants to visit. 🏝️✨
Donsak is a passageway to Koh Samui. We were very lucky to get on the boat at 5 am. We were able to see the sunlight. It was so awesome. We could smell the sea, the cool breeze, and the small islands along the way.
