The best things to do in Bophut don’t stray too far from its 3 km-long beach. It’s one of the most popular holiday destinations in Koh Samui that managed to retain a genuine, southern Thai laidback atmosphere with its renowned Fisherman’s Village. 

Located on the island’s north coast, Bophut Beach faces Koh Phangan and, despite its ever-growing success, remains a haven of tranquillity. Apart from its beach, Bophut has a good range of attractions and activities to keep island holidaymakers busy.

    Samui’s Big Buddha sits on a small rocky island off Koh Samui’s northeastern corner. Known locally as Wat Phra Yai, its golden, 12-metre-tall seated Buddha statue has been one of the island’s most popular attractions since 1972. 

    The Big Buddha Temple is on Koh Faan – you can get there via a causeway that connects it to Koh Samui. The statue can be seen at a distance of several kilometres, making it one of the first landmarks people see when arriving on Koh Samui by air.

    Fisherman’s Village Walking Street brings the quiet, sleepy town of Bophut to life every Friday from 5 pm to 11 pm. It sees the narrow Beach Road and adjoining streets crammed with market stalls and shoppers from across Koh Samui, with a diverse range of wares available at very low prices.

    Many of the stalls sell cheap T-shirts, simple jewellery, handbags, sunglasses, beer cosies, and souvenirs. As with all market shopping in Thailand, a certain amount of judgement and measured expectations is necessary when deciding on your purchases.

    There are many tattoo studios on Samui offering work of varying quality. While most tend to offer reasonable standards of health and hygiene, it's worthwhile making a thorough (sober) assessment before going under the needle. Thailand's famous monk's tattoos, which supposedly give the recipient magical powers, are occasionally available at the Big Buddha Temple.
