As part of and archipelago,
Samui is the departure point for journeys of discovery to other neighboring
islands. Ko Pha Ngan is the nearest and largest island. Boats can be readily
hired for the trip. The beaches are good and there are also several scenic
waterfalls, but while there is some budget accommodation, the island is
much less developed than Samui. Close by are 2 smaller, uninhabited islands
where beautiful bays with colorful coral formations offer excellent conditions
for snorkeling.
A more adventurous
full-day excursion can be made to Ang Thong Marine Park, a group of 40
islands northwest of Samui. Here you will see spectacular limestone formations,
caves, blue lagoons and amazingly beautiful beaches.
Accommodation is
available at Ko Wua Ta Lap, where the park headquarters are located.
