    at 3:34 you're talking about watching the sunset. A tip: On the west coast north from Nathon, there are a variety of restaurants by the beach to watch the sunset from. If you drive from the north-west tip southbound towards Nathon there's a bunch or relaxed restaurants and beach bars lined up by the main road. Just make your choice out of which style you want to have on that evening: high-end restaurant, stylish beach bar or a relaxed reggae "hut", hop off your scooter and enjoy the views !

    I think the point should be made that both of these islands work well together, and there's a little bit of everything between the two. I hope people don't judge too much based on one video. For example, there are times when the beaches he was on are some of the nicest you will ever see in your life. He caught them on more of a windy time. He doesn't know Samui at all, and therefore he only gave you a rookie taste of it. But he's good at making videos.

    Good review. Koh Samui is a lovely Island. Crystal Bay Beach is very nice during the low season otherwise it can be very crowded. Basically a "look at me beach" for many people. Many beaches on Samui are more chill all year around. Yes, Samui is more expensive however there are reasonably priced food options also. My biggest delta about Koh Samui is the traffic on the NE side of the Island in particular. Access to beaches in several areas is limited (blocked by resorts) and transportation even on the ride-share Songthaews is relatively expensive for Thailand but it is a tourist-dominant Island. Overall Koh Samui is lovely.

      You can fly in and out of samui as it has an airport. Only Bangkok air flies there so it can be a bit expensive. Ko Pha-ngan and Ko Tao don't have airports. They are the three inhabited islands in the group.
      Phuket is the other main island with an international airport. Which is on the other side of the peninsula.
      Cheapest way is to fly a low cost airline to Surat Thani on the mainland and get the ferry to Samui or Pha-ngan.

    Too many people everywhere. Because the beaches are very short for the number of hotels on them and people that visit them. Not inviting at all. Plus you have to travel from one beach another and what you find after the travel is another short and crowded beach. The only attraction seems to be driving for that like. I don’t need longer and more wild beaches.
