SunThursday Contest #30 - Samui on Fire!!

avatar

Bringing you some more magical sunsets from the island of Koh Samui in Nathon Beach, over the Gulf of Thailand, while on vacation on this paradise island there wasn't one day that we weren't on this long stretch of white sand beach, I do think we ate and drunk at almost every bar/restaurant along this stretch of Nathon Beach, on our one month vacation on this island and not only did we enjoy the immense Thai foods at every bar/restaurant but we got spoiled every evening by mother nature putting on these magnificent colorful shows, every evening without a miss, every day was a spectacular sunset on this island.

The texture and colors of these sunsets were always impressive and astounding, it had you glued to the sky like when your watching your favorite show on TV and the next episode was always better then the previous episode never disappointing.

Koh Samui can be found on the Gulf of Thailand in the south of Thailand, there are numerous direct domestic flights from Bangkok airport to the island and there are also some international flights that fly into Koh Samui airport. If your wanting to do it the cheaper way as for backpackers you can fly from Don Muang airport in Bangkok, to Surat Thani Province, then be transported by bus from the airport to the Donsak Pier and take the ferry across the Gulf of Thailand to Koh Samui island, it really works out a third of the cost compared to flying direct to Koh Samui island, it might take longer but you really get to see more of the country side and probably catch the best sunset while crossing over by ferry over the Gulf of Thailand, that's if your on the last evening ferry.

You have certainly gotten around it would have been a little less developed in 2009 probably less crowded till when i was there not so long ago.

Can´t remember much but it was definitely already crowded. If you can go again anytime I recommend Koh Mak near Koh Chang in the Trat area. This is paradise

Actually talking to @world-travel-pro it's the best time to be traveling to Thailand at the moment no crowds and much more peaceful and clean on the beaches.

Amazing photos @kohsamui99, just love the mixture of magnificent colours in the sunsets. Mother Nature is indeed magical.
How wonderful, a whole month on this lovely island, no wonder you were able to enjoy the many selections of cafes and restaurants.
