Kosmoy known for Its beautiful and magical beaches And it is not always easy to choose where to settle, but if you come to the island as a family or as a couple, or if you are interested in a more relaxed and less crowded experience - Lamai Beach is the place for you. It can be defined as the milder and quieter version of the lively and bustling Chaweng Beach. In addition, staying there is cheaper than Chaweng Beach.
The beautiful beach offers you white sand and clear turquoise water. If you turn back, you will find rows and rows of tropical trees. Many claim that it is the most beautiful beach in Koh Samui. It is suitable for swimming thanks to the warm and pleasant water and also for water sports but also for just relaxing on the beach or strengthening the tan.
If you are into water sports, you can find along the beach several positions for renting jet skis, kayaks, windsurfers and motor boats. You can also go water skiing. However, due to its structure, the beach is not recommended for snorkeling.
The length of the beach is 4 km and you can enjoy walking from one end to the other. The northern end of the beach is shallower and rocky, so the beach is also suitable for families with children. The northern part is also more isolated and calmer. The longer you sleep, the more people you will find on the beach.
If during your stay at the beach you encounter thirst or hunger, no problem. You will find several places that will be happy to sell you ice cream, cut fruits, cold drinks, roasted corn and skewers or papaya salad. There are also quite a few restaurants within a short walking distance from the beach.
The beach is also a great place to pamper yourself a little. You can get a pampering Thai massage or just get your nails done, add a henna tattoo or even braid.
In the evening, cafes along the beach bring chairs and tables out to the sand, sprinkle candles and give you the opportunity to enjoy a light meal or drink by candlelight, with your feet in the sand and your ears hearing the sound of the waves.
מספר Hotels are scattered along the beach. You can find places for travelers on a limited budget that are still a short walk from the beach and also pampering boutique hotels with excellent views. All according to the budget.
Driving from Kosmoi Airport to Lamai Beach takes 20 minutes. You can board a shuttle for 150 baht while a private taxi will cost around 400 baht. If you arrived by cruise, a transfer from the ferry pier will cost 60 baht.
