More Of Koh Samui's Island Pristine Beaches.
Five years ago when we decided to travel to Thailand we had done a lot of research in where would be the best island to travel to were we could be surrounded by countless paradise beaches without having to travel of the island into the far and beyond, every time we wanted to lay ourselves on some powdery white sand beach and it turned for us choosing, Koh Samui Island which till this day I still think was a great choice and am eager to get back there again in the near future.
We had plan to stay on Koh Samui Island for one month and didn't want to be wasting any of our precious vacation time traveling to other parts of Thailand, with the amount of beaches we saw on google map on Koh Samui Island was going to keep us more then busy and that wasn't counting all them hidden pristine beaches.
Koh Samui island is the second largest island in Thailand but really doesn't seem that big when you can drive right around the island via the Ring Road in less then 2 hours about a 50km circuit all up but there are so many little hidden trails you can take that will lead you to unknown hidden beaches.
In the month we had decided to spend on this island we figured it was going to be more convenient for us to hire a little 4WD Suzuki then we could get up and go whenever we wanted without relying on public transport and wasting precious time and it work out a lot cheaper the 4WD was costing us like $10 US per/day. On this particular day we pulled up at this trail we saw on the east coast side of the Ring Road and decided to explore, it seemed like some other people knew about this trail also they told us if you follow the trail all the way down you will come to a beautiful beach called Banana Beach.
We could see Banana Beach as we were tracking down through this trail of lush jungle and coconut trees the people down there already had come from the other side of the island in Tailboats so you could see the benefits of hiring a 4WD you could just go and discover whatever beach you wanted less cost and more fun and we were doing this right around this entire island in the whole time we were on this island, I have actually lost count in how many beaches like this we did see just by going of the beaten track.
After arriving to this amazing beach it had stunning breathtaking views looking out to the Gulf of Thailand and beautiful nature surrounding the beach looked more like a private beach there were no little bars or little hunts were you could sit have lunch and enjoy the views but we were told that if we walked along the beach over them big boulder rocks we would come to another beach called Chaweng Noi beach and there we could enjoy the sunset and have some great Thai food so off we when.
It was about a 30 minute walk from Banana beach to Chaweng Noi Beach but worth every step of the way the views were amazing along the way the smell of the ocean and what made us feel even more better was the smell of aromas of the Thai food hitting us in the face as we were getting closer to Chaweng Noi Beach.
Chaweng Noi beach is more of a family orientated beach with luxury resort and restaurants a place that you would got if you want to be completely spoiled by the beach and the staff a very friendly atmosphere all around at this spectacular beach resort. We ordered some Thai spicy foods we both love spicy foods and these were some of the best we had tasted the spicy seafood salad, Larb Moo, and Chicken Basil with cocktails all up was like $45 US a full belly at a bargain.
And after that energizing spicy later afternoon lunch it was time to walk back up the mountain enjoy the sunsets and head back to our 4WD was another great day had on Koh Samui Island can't wait to get back there hopefully this will be the year.

Those are wonderful photography. Boat and beach looking so beautiful. And also foods are looking so delicious.
Hello, the photos are beautiful, I could travel through them to that beautiful beach of Tahilandia, each photo tells a story, I am an islander and I like the photos where the sea is the protagonist, I liked them all, although I confess some more than others caught my attention, for example the palm trees all so close together, the sunset and there is one where you can see the sky, clouds and the sea is very striking, in short they are all nice haha.
Thank you @marito74 for showing your love for this post hope you can get to see this in real life someday 😊

Got to have that mixtures so we don't get bored 🤣
True, but today we have 10C and I have been sweating in my thick jacket 🤣

That's the problem with cold and snow it's hard to judge what to wear as with tropical weather just shorts and T-Shirt everyday all day 🤣🤣
Right, but you can't take more clothes off than you have put on when it's too hot, but I can always add another layer when it's too cold 😂
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

True facts my friend but I would rather be sweating then carrying a wardrobe around 🤣🤣
That's also true, the clothes can get quite heavy but you don't need to go to the gym - a short walk is enough 😂

Amazing pictures from your trip. Looks like your plan to rent a 4X to explore as you like paid of. Thanks for sharing these 😀
Thank you @timoremoti was quite an adventure I must say 👍
Wow! Banana Beach looks incredible! Who could resist spending time there? So gorgeous, what a little paradise, and I certainly would have trouble saying no to any of it! You are so spoiled! :) Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday! I cannot tell you how pleased I am to see so many participating every week. I have learned so much about the different cultures of the world, especially the small things that go unnoticed except by those looking for it. Life is interesting, wherever you are, whatever you are doing. I hope the New Year finds you healthy and happy, as we all look to prosper in our way of life.
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers markets and eventually branching out and evolving over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but, it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact of what is these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.
Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how:
