Ko Samui is the perfect island escape for families looking for a bit of everything; it’s a huge island with beautiful, safe beaches and seas perfect for swimming, sandcastle building and snorkelling. For older children they can do kayaking, quad biking and surfing. In the evening you can dine at one of the many restaurants on the beach, or do some souvenir shopping at the night markets. We’ll arrange for you to stay in a Thai style family bungalow resort with swimming pool, right on the sands of Bo Phut Beach and take a kayaking trip through the underwater paradise of Angthong National Marine Park, but the rest of the time is at your leisure.

Day 1 – Arrival on Ko Samui

Ko Samui has so much to offer families, with plenty of restaurants to choose from and lots of days trips if you’re feeling adventurous. You’ll stay in a charming bungalow with a swimming pool on the pretty Bo Phut beach. After checking in, there is nothing planned for the afternoon and you can do whatever takes your fancy. If you’re feel like enjoying some well-deserved relaxation, then you can simply enjoy the sand and the sea which is right on your doorstep.

Days 2-3 – Free time and kayaking excursion

Your second day is free for you to do as you please. The island’s rugged interior is a fantastic place to explore and we recommend a trip to the Giant Standing Buddha, a huge buddha where the local Thai community regularly make offerings. There’s also the exciting night market over on Chaweng Beach for you to pick up some more souvenirs.

Just a stone’s throw away from Ko Samui is the Angthong National Marine park and this is where you’ll be heading to for your kayaking excursion. We’ll arrange for you to be picked up from your hotel and taken by boat to discover this hidden gem. Once there you’ll jump into your kayak and paddle your way through a maze of high limestone cliffs rising from the sea. There’s also snorkelling gear available for you to discover the wonderful underwater world full of tropical fish and colourful coral.

Day 4 – Departure from Ko Samui

The next morning you can take one last dip in the pool before checking out as you move onto your next destination. If you’d like to spend an extra day or two relaxing on the beach, just let your travel specialist know!
