[2025 Koh Samui Attraction] Travel Guide for Bo Phut Beach (Updated Jul)

Pop Beach is close to the airport and convenient transportation, so the first day we got off the plane we stayed near Pop Beach🫢 Pop Beach next to all specialty restaurants, facing the beach and the sea, very romantic! And every night, Pop Beach has a special show—the fire dance show 🔥🔥🔥 There will be two performances every night, the performers will perform different high-difficulty fire dance performances on the beach, sparks everywhere, the visual effects are very shocking and amazing! Since this show is free, we encourage you to tip the performers more after watching the show to support their livelihood😊 pS.On Koh Samui only Pop Beach and Chaweng Beach will have fire dance performances at night! #Thailand Attractions

The hottest place in Bophut Beach, Koh Samui, Thailand!! You can sit on the beach and watch the fire show. You can sit in the restaurant or on a beach beanbag!! It's hard to get a good seat after 6pm without making a reservation, so go around 5:30pm to take pictures with a pretty background, and while you're eating, the fire show starts right away!! I highly recommend it:) Address: 62 Tambon Bo Put, Ko Samui District, Surat Thani 84320 Atmosphere/Facilities: Watch the fire show directly on the beach! Hip music! Key Point: You can watch the fire show! Average price per person: 15,000 won Rating: 4.5 out of 5 #Southeast Asia travel #Hot place #Koh Samui #Thailand travel

Koh Samui, which I returned to after 4 years, is the same, but there are new resorts! One of them is “Holidayn Resort” Right on the most romantic Bophut Beach among Koh Samui beaches!! It’s so nice that you can go around without any other means of transportation. It’s a resort with lots of kids, so there are a lot of families. The pool is well-maintained, so I definitely recommend it to those who like swimming!! The kids’ center was also very well-maintained. It’s clean and friendly because it’s new, so I like it :) #Ho-kang-seu #Thailand-travel #Koh-samui #Koh-samui-resort

Anantara's luxury resort on Bophut Beach, not very big, narrow area from the road to Bophut Beach, designed in Thai style, giving a feeling of relaxation, lots of trees, feeling refreshed. The spa here is very famous for both the location and the skills of the therapists. The main restaurant and swimming pool are on the beach. The resort is near Fisherman's Village and Coco Tam restaurant, very convenient to travel. #winterseatravel

#เที่ยวสไมล์ For those who want to escape the hustle and bustle and find a place to relax in Samui, I would like to recommend Bo Phut Beach. The water here is very clear, the sea is clean, the sand is white, and you can walk around and enjoy it to the fullest. The atmosphere is more peaceful than the famous beaches like Chaweng or Lamai. It is suitable for those who want to come and chill, read a book, and listen to the sound of the waves without rushing. Around the beach, there are also local restaurants, cute cafes, and homestays to choose from for a super slow life. Whether you come to walk around, take cute pictures, or bring your family, it will be great for your heart. You can fully enjoy the beautiful sea atmosphere of Samui. If you have time, try to sit and wait to watch the sunset here. I guarantee that you will fall in love with Bo Phut as well. 📍 Bo Phut Beach, Koh Samui, Surat Thani #Bo Phut Beach #Koh Samui #เที่ยวสไมล์ #ใต้ทะเล #Samui #สวยทะเลใสน้ำ

Koh Samui is beautiful, but it has its share of tourist traps. Here's a practical guide to help you steer clear of common travel hassles! These five mistakes could really ruin your trip... 🚗 Transportation Tips Taking a taxi directly from the airport is expensive! Pre-book your transfer instead. Use ride-hailing apps like Grab or InDriver to avoid unmetered taxis. Renting a car requires an international driver's license, and remember—Thailand drives on the left! Always wear a helmet when renting a scooter, or you'll face fines. 🏖️ Beach Advice Popular beaches are commercialized. For quieter vibes, try Lipa Noi or Bophut Beach. Many beach chairs aren’t free—always ask before sitting down! Bargain for water activities and compare prices to avoid overpaying. Stay in designated swimming areas and watch out for strong currents. 🍜 Food & Drinks Look out for green leaf signs in stores—they mark cannabis products (avoid if unintended). Durian and mangosteen are banned in hotels—fines apply if caught! Note: Thailand's legal drinking age is 20. 🌊 Island Hopping Check weather forecasts during monsoon season (May–October) before boat trips. Choose reef-safe sunscreen if snorkeling/diving. Beware of sharp rocks and jellyfish! If stung, apply vinegar first, then seek medical help. Pack water shoes for safety. 💰 Money Matters Exchange currency at home or reputable local exchanges (airport rates are poor). Many small shops/street markets only accept cash—withdraw larger amounts to save on ATM fees. Buy affordable mosquito repellent at 7-Eleven—don’t overpay at tourist spots. #KohSamui #TravelTips #AvoidScams

If you are looking for a good value accommodation near Fisherman Village, I recommend Bandara Resort!! I was looking for a place to stay while on my honeymoon and going on tours, so I searched really hard because I wanted to find a place near Fisherman Village. I didn't want to spend money on an expensive resort for a tour, so I looked for a pretty resort at a reasonable price, and Bandara was perfect! The resort grounds are also spacious, so it's good for walking, and the beach in front is so prettyㅎㅎ I ate breakfast for about 3 days, and some of the main dishes changed every day, so I didn't get tired of it, and the staff was so kind. The swimming pool was also quite deep, so even adult men had to walk with their toes in the deep part. It was about a 10-minute walk to the night market, so it wasn't too far, and it was quiet, so it was nice^^ It was a very satisfying resortㅎㅎ #Honeymoon #KohSamui #BandaraResort #FishermanVillage
