I'm back, but my heart is still in Koh Samui. The scenery is so stunning.

Koh Samui Travel Guide 🏝️🌴 Koh Samui is really a place that makes people linger. The beaches, sea water and sunshine here make people fall in love with this island! Relax and experience it slowly, it will definitely be worth the trip! Must-see attractions: Chaweng Beach: The busiest beach in Koh Samui, with beautiful white sand and clear water🏖️. I played jet ski here and the experience was perfect! At sunset the beach bar starts to come alive with music and lights creating a great atmosphere. Big Buddha Temple: One of the most famous landmarks on the island, the huge golden Buddha statue is very shocking🙏. I climbed the steps and looked out over the sea, which was a very nice view. Ocean Park: The underwater world is so beautiful! Corals and fish are swimming around us, and the kayaking experience is really fun! Food recommendations: Pad Thai: The seafood fried rice noodles taste super authentic 🍤 and can be found in small restaurants on the island. I specifically ordered the spicy version, which was sour and sweet and very appetizing. Mango sticky rice: a must-try dessert at the night market! Sweet mango paired with coconut milk and sticky rice is truly a delicacy. I bought a large portion and couldn't stop eating. Transportation Recommendation: Motorcycle: It is most convenient to rent a motorcycle. You can travel around the island freely. There are many car rental shops on the island and the rental fee is not expensive, but you must wear a helmet and pay attention to safety. Shared minibus: You can choose to share a car for short trips at an affordable price🚐. I used this to get from the hotel to the pier, it was easy and convenient. Personal experience: Bring more sunscreen: The sun on the island is very strong, I have reapplied sunscreen several times 🌞. Be sure to prepare a hat, sunglasses and sun-protective clothing to protect your skin. The night market on the island is not to be missed: the night market is super lively, and the various snack stalls and souvenir shops are very interesting 🛍️. Photography tips: The beach is best for taking photos at sunrise and sunset: the light in the morning and evening is very soft 📸, and any shot can be a masterpiece. Remember to bring a waterproof bag to take pictures of the underwater beauty!
