Koh Samui is a lot more than just the beautiful beaches and here are the top water sports that you can try in Koh Samui.
An activity that can be enjoyed by all that is young and aged and big and small. Kayaking allows you to enjoy the pristine blue waters while slowly soaring around the coastline enjoying the stunning sceneries. You can go kayaking around the Thong National Marine Park which consists of 42 islands and is home to a number of different caves hidden away in a breath-taking landscape. It is an activity that can be enjoyed as a group or a great way to spend a romantic evening. If you are staying close by then the arrangements can be made directly with the national park or through your Koh Samui hotel. Deals on bookings are sometimes available on packages when you book through hotels.
Scuba diving around the coast line of Koh Samui is one of the most amazing experiences you can treat yourself to while in Thailand. Submerging yourself to witness the stunning marine world hidden beneath our naked eye is a world you can get lost in for hours and hours. You get to swim with the fish and become part of their world and experience the beauty of nature in its true glory. If you are staying at a hotel such as the AVANI+ Samui you could request more details from the staff and ask them to arrange a scuba diving trip for you.
Enjoy a bird's eye view of the stunning Koh Samui landscapes through parasailing. If you are an adrenaline junkie then you would love parasailing. The high you feel as you get lifted and go soaring through the air with the wind in your hair is a once in a life time experience. Even if you have never tried the activity there are many locations where professionals can teach you and guide you in order for you to make the best of your parasailing experience.
When the sun hits your skin and the wind blows through your hair as you ride the waves along the waters of Koh Samui there are only few other activities that can give you the same experience and thrill as surfing. Surfing is picking up in Koh Samui and if you are able to swim then even if you have not surfed before there are professionals who are able to guide you through your first experience of surfing. Surfing is definitely not for the faint at heart so it is always best to try some mild waves before you try the larger unforgiving waves.
If you love speeding on the streets then riding a jet ski is something that will come naturally to you. This water sport has been around the arena for decades but the popularity has only risen with time. There are many locations around Koh Samui where you can rent a jet ski and have the time of your life. If you have not ridden a jet ski before then you can hop on with a professional so you can hold tight and enjoy the speed as you make your way through the waves.
