Bangkok to Koh Samui & Santiburi Beach Resort
Read more about getting from Bangkok to Koh Samui and where we stayed here:
My wife Ying and I were invited to stay at Santiburi Beach Resort ( affiliate link) on the island of Koh Samui for a couple of nights, and since neither of us had ever been to Koh Samui, we decided to go for it.
How to get from Bangkok to Koh Samui: There are a number of different options, depending on how much you want to spend and how much time you want to take. The fastest and most expensive way is to take a direct flight from Bangkok to Koh Samui on either Thai Airways or Bangkok Airways. The cheaper way to go is to take a flight from Bangkok to Surat Thani (สุราษฎร์ธานี), then take a bus to Donsak pier, and then take a ferry to Koh Samui - that’s what we did. You could also alternatively take a bus to Surat and do the same thing. We took a flight with Air Asia, which took 1 hour, then we took a bus which took another 1.5 hours to the ferry terminal. Then we had a 45 minute layover, and took the Seatran Ferry to Koh Samui which also took 1.5 hours. We left Bangkok at about 7 am and arrived in Koh Samui just after noon.
For our first lunch, we headed to a restaurant right at Nathon in Koh Samui just a 10 minute walk from the ferry. The food was alright, but not anything amazing. The best dish for me was the gaeng som, sour curry with turmeric and fish. That was pretty good, but the rest of the food was alright at best. After having a quick lunch, Ying and I jumped in the back of a rot songthaew (the back of the truck pickup public transportation in Thailand) and headed north to a beach on Koh Samui called Mae Nam. We got dropped off right in front of Santiburi Beach Resort and then walked into our resort for the next 2 nights.
Santiburi Beach Resort was incredible - and we had an ocean view villa right on the beach. The inside of our villa was probably the nicest place I’ve ever stayed. The design was elegant Thai, and there was an open seating room, then the main bedroom, and a giant bathroom with a circular tub, two sinks, and a huge walk in closet. Just outside the shower was a private courtyard with out own personal swimming pool. Santiburi Beach Resort was was even better outside - the grounds were well manicured with tropical flowers and plants, and the beach was perfectly maintained, quiet, and with a nice view of Koh Pha Ngan in the background. The water was beautiful. They invited us to try the spa, so that afternoon we went to enjoy the spa and I had the most amazing spa massage I’ve ever had - but I’ve only had a massage a few times in my life - nevertheless it was amazing. For dinner we ate at Santiburi Beach Resort and their beachside restaurant called Rim Talay. Overlooking the beach, it was a beautiful atmosphere and they served international food. The food was overall very good.
This video vlog is for Day 1, traveling from Bangkok to Koh Samui and checking into Santiburi Beach Resort.

Koh Samui - Fish Market between Bangrak Pier and Big Buddha - Koh Samui travel video
We are at the Old Fish Market located in Bangrak on Koh Samui, Thailand. Banrak is the area which lies between the islands two top attractions The Big Buddha and The Fishermans Village (see our video about the Fishermans Village Friday Night Market). This is also the area where the Bangrak Pier is located (where ferries from Koh Phangan etc. arrive and depart). The old Fish market is located at the end of Sanam Bin Road opposite the Plaza the Green shopping center (one could be tempted to think that the shopping center was actually meant to be called The Green Plaza??).
The Old Fish Market is absolutely very well worth a visit for any traveler. Other than fish the market is full of all kinds of exotic fruit, vegetables, meats, herbs + spices, produce, toads, eels and other very exotic local foods.
This Thai market is free to visit and is an attraction worth visiting before or after a visit to the Big Buddha. Taxis and TukTuk´s are easy to take from this point so whether you wish to continue on to Fisherman's Village, Lamai Beach, Chaweng Beach or any other point on the island it is easy from here. When visiting the Big Buddha or arriving at the Bangrak ferry jetty, do not make the mistake of thinking you can walk to Bophut from this area (it is rather far to the touristy part of Bophut Beach, Fisherman´s Village etc.), take a tuk tuk or taxi!
This footage is filmed at the Old Bang Rak fishermans market which lies at the end of Sanam Bin Road opposite the Plaza the Green shopping center and between the Big Buddha Statue and the Bangrak ferry jetty at Bophut Beach on the island of Koh Samui, Thailand. This market (and worthwhile tourist attraction) is easily accessible by motorcycle, taxi or tuktuk by travelers living at hotels, resorts or bungalows located at Lamai Beach, Chaweng Beach or Bophut Beach.

Koh Samui back to Bangkok (and a Ferry Snack)
For more travel and food, head over to my blogs: and
I normally don’t like to travel quickly, but this trip to Koh Samui was a quick one - the reason is because we already had some family commitments back in Bangkok, and because we’re getting ready to take a trip to Taiwan and on the the Philippines very soon. So we only ended up staying in Samui for 4 nights, 5 days, and then we needed to get back home. We started the day off at our hotel, Lazy Days Samui Beach Resort, by first having breakfast, then doing some work in the morning.
Towards the middle of the morning, we packed our bags, and walked out to the main road to catch a public transportation truck back to Nathon, the pier town in order to catch a ferry back to the mainland part of Surat Thani. We waited for about 10 minutes until our ride came, and we arrived back to Nathon at about lunch time and we were both hungry. There were some restaurants, but we didn’t have much time explore and choose a good place, so we stopped at a place right along the road that looked alright. We had a number of different curries and dishes and Ying had some soup. The food was alright, but nothing too special.
After lunch we headed off to the Seatran ferry office on the pier to buy our tickets, but to our disappointment, the office said they couldn’t sell us tickets from the ferry to the bus to the airport. Instead we had to walk all the way back into town to a place called Panthip Travel to buy the ferry bus combination tickets which cost 400 THB. We had about an hour, so stopped to have a coffee and proceeded.
That was all for Koh Samui, we got on the Seatran ferry which took us to a bus where we went back to Surat Thani International Airport and then caught our flight back to Bangkok.
I want to say a big thank you for watching this series of Koh Samui travel videos. If you’re have seen all the videos in the series, here’s the full playlist starting from Day 1:
That completes Day 5 of our short trip to Koh Samui.
