Kids love butterflies! Samui Butterfly Garden is a nice place to go to especially with the family. The garden is located on the side of a hill at Laem Natien and features an enclosed tropical park containing hundreds of butterflies, some with wingspans up to 25 cm. 

The Big Buddha Temple or Wat Phra Yai is on Samui's north coast. The 12-meter-high Buddha in gold color sits on a small islet connected to the big island by a causeway. Entering the temple, you first come to a large, paved courtyard with a dragon stairway.

Chaweng Beach is considered the most beautiful beach on Koh Samui. It lies on the east coast of the island. Stretching for 7 kilometers or more than 4 miles, this spectacular beach is the longest strip on the island and is the perfect place for you.

Mu Koh Ang Thong National Marine Park is in the gulf of Thailand, Surat Thani province. Just 21 miles west of Samui, this archipelago of 42 islands fits everyone's image of a tropical paradise, with its huge limestone rocks covered in virgin rainforest rising out of the aquamarine waters.
