I got there when they were resurfacing the road on Chaweng. It might have been around this time because I can see that parts of the road have been done. I remember driving over planks of wood on my moped. Stayed at Munchies which was at the end of Chaweng. The bungalows were right on the beach. Went back two years ago but not the same. Great video.
14:10 As soon as I saw all these wedding dresses I knew exactly where it is and when the left turn came I just screamed yes, yes, yes. it is the Thanon Tanao Road beside the Khaosan Road.
@@650santos I stayed at Pinnacle Resort in 2005 in Meanam. It was great. I wish I had a chance to experience the island in the 90s or even 80s. Came back in 2007 and 2019. Chaweng changed alot, some places were hardly recognizable, others were. Chaweng didin´t change as much as Chanweng. Still a great island.
1998 was my first time in Koh Samui, it was a paradise. I miss the good old times, but I love Samui too.
Thanks for the old videos. I miss the good old times
Thank’s mate! A few more will come soon.
Thank You for uploading this. Spent a good portion of the early 90's on Chaweng Beach. That fisherman was not having any luck.

A lot of changes within the last 25 years all over the Island. It’s not as charming as it was back then.
@@jacobnielsen1224 At least we were there to experience the golden years. :))

Yep! Everybody went through Khaosan Road those years!
Too many people back then, lot quieter now... unbelievable isn't it
Samui was still great in 1998 however it was a cusp of dramatic change, sadly the change wasn't a good one at all.
