Koh Samui
Located 340 miles south of Bangkok, Koh Samui is one of Thailand's most magical destinations. Koh Samui offers a beautiful sailing area with some 80 tropical islands most of which are deserted. There are several options for yacht charters or join-in cruises available here.
Away from the beaches there is much to see and do on Samui itself with great restaurants to dine in, as well as golf, bungy jumping, elephant trekking, canopy tours, Thai cooking courses or elephant jungle safaris.
