Best places: Things to dos in Baan Pang Ka, Thailand

Terracotta-hued Buddhist temple richly decorated with sculptures of sea monsters & warriors.

👍👍 What a wonderful elephant sanctuary. This was a genuinely great experience from start to end. We stayed at the Intercontinental Hotel and were picked up by the staff. On arrival you were ushered to a reception area were drinks and coffee were served. After a short introduction of the sanctuary and e...

Small, busy temple with Buddhist art, best known for the mummified monk on display.

👍👍 In my opinion the best temple in Koh Samui. To all Tourists: please be respectful!

😠 as an experienced person in the field of reptiles, I will say it simply, I went out of curiosity, the entrance fee is 400BHT and definitely PLEASE DON'T GO THERE, the animals have terrible conditions, they live in terrariums, several pieces each, dirt, stench and barely alive animals I DO NOT RECOMM...

👍 I was the only tourist there during my visit, very quiet place. Some "off the beaten track" Temples I've visited have had very aggressive, territorial dogs, but no problem here. Several friendly dogs came up to me. As is often the case at Country Temples, some construction/refurbishment is taking pl...

😐 The car park area has two rows of eateries (air-conditioned) that serves a wide variety of local dishes. Look out for the Pork Noodle and Pad Thai kiosks. Yummy & heavenly!

👍👍 TopCats fishing resort in Taling Ngam Koh Samui is amazing for the sport fisherman or just leisure fishing. With over 40 species to catch you certainly wont get bored here. All equipment and a guide included you are guaranteed a catch. The staff will go out of their way to help you catch offering ti...

Lush hilltop garden flanked by waterfalls & displays of statues of the Buddha, animals & more.

👍 Maybe not the best beach of the island, maybe not what you have in mind when visiting Thailand, but definitely the best one to relax and spend some quality time away from the tourist masses. At first when we got in our hotel, which was located on that beach, we were kind of disappointed but after ha...

Mountaintop park featuring a pool with panoramic views, a cafe & animals, including colored pigeons.

👍👍 Very Nice temple, far from the crowded places. The local sea shore is the best we experienced in Koo Samui.

Small, golden pagoda with ornate details in a serene oceanfront setting with a sandy beach.

👍 A small rural fishing village that serves as the portal to Koh Tan and Koh Mudsum. Most of the "tours" here basically run a 4 hr itinerary. A visit to Koh Mudsum, the Pig Island, to enjoy the beach. Swimming is not ideal here though, since water is too shallow for anything. There are some coral, but...

👍👍 Awesome place, with stunning views. Make sure to take appropriate footwear for the steep but relatively short hike. Go past the car park as there is appropriate parking closer to the start of the walk. Also, BE CAREFUL on the rocks, I slipped, and I saw others do so too.

👍👍 After dinner the Malayu Seafood, we went here for Isya' Prayers. Stumbled upon the local imam Hj Ghazali. He speaks fluent Bahasa Melayu. Very friendly guy and he explained abit on the the Malay roots here originated from Patani. The locals here are very friendly. I can feel that this place has a g...

Down-to-earth, covered venue with merchants selling fruits & vegetables, plus fish, meat & more.

😐 The place itself wasn't that magical. I asked the hostes if we could try the rum and she told me we could order shots which I find kind a weird. We just wanted to try the rum before buying it. Also we were expecting a range of flavors but sadly they only had the original. Anyways I bought 3 botles s...

👍👍 Operation 0600 - 1900 we just on time for last ⛴ boarding to koh samui. Price are cheap for 🛵 580thb return and 🚙 1020thb return. It took 1h30m.

😠 Animal abuse, elephants used for riding 🤮🤮 waterfall nice of course, but it’s very filthy. Plastic everywhere, bad smell. Won’t come back
