    Really good subject, Chai, Phuket vs Samui. I get that question a lot but have the closest I've made it to Phuket is Koh Lipe, so I'm not qualified to answer. But I do like Samui and Koh Phangan from a couple visits, more Koh Phangan. As the one girl said, very "hippy" in a good way. Great pop ups of the island with the pins to show locations. Stay champ!

    Glad to hear Samui is the winner. My wife and I returned from there in Sept. it was our 4th trip. We have loved Koh Samui ever since our first trip back in 2016, never been to other places in Thailand and keep meaning to travel to Phuket but we prefer the quieter scene, we've been told that Phuket is too busy/loud and too big so we find ourselves always returning back to Koh Samui and maybe next time Phuket lol...but we are going back to Samui in 2025 and will make it a longer trip.

Water's to dirty to dive , waterfalls only good thing. Patong you can do whatever whenever. And it doesn't get the island storms daily. Every day it rained at 2pm-5pm very heavy samui . And the taxi rip off prices , The island is so spread out for what it is.
