First-time visitors to Samui may have several questions. "What must I pack to Koh Samui?" is likely to be one of the questions that are asked the most often of all. No need to stress any longer, the definitive list of what to bring to Koh Samui can be found here.

1

SPF

It's possible that getting a tan this vacation might be a priority for you and although applying sunscreen may not be at the top of your to-do list, trust us when we say that you should! The sunshine on the island may vary from being lovely to being so intense that it can produce sunburns, which is not a pleasant experience by any stretch of the imagination. Therefore, remember to pack your preferred brand of sunscreen and put some on before you leave your hotel. You ought to do this even if you're not going to the beach.

Swimsuit

You should plan to spend a significant amount of time both in and around the ocean during your stay in Koh Samui. It is highly recommended that you carry at least 2 swimsuits with you everywhere you go so that you may always have one that is dry. Top hotels in Koh Samui do offer swimming pools and some of them have their own private beach. For beachfront accommodation, you might want to check out properties like Avani Chaweng Samui Hotel & Beach Club where you can lounge by the sea all day long!

A wide-brimmed hat/shades

On Koh Samui, there is such an abundance of sunlight that there are moments when there is almost too much of it! When the sunshine is so intense that you can't even open your eyes, a wide hat and a pair of sunglasses may be quite helpful.

Sandals

If you have your heart set on spending your next vacation on Koh Samui, you should definitely pack comfortable footwear that you can use on the beach. Given the heat and humidity, sandals are the type of footwear that is the most comfortable. Additionally, it is easy to take off in the event that you need to enter a temple or local homes, both of which require visitors to remove their shoes before entering.

5

Mosquito repellent

Mosquito repellent is among the most crucial items that you must never forget to bring with you when you visit a tropical island because of the high risk of being bitten by mosquitoes. Mosquito bites can leave your skin itchy and irritated for many days. They also spread diseases. In addition to being effective against these pesky insects, mosquito repellents may also be used against other tiny insects such as ants.

Tissue Paper

It is highly recommended that you carry your own tissue paper with you wherever you go. Since Samui is not a rural area, the island has a sufficient number of public bathrooms; nonetheless, it is possible that these facilities do not include toilet paper!
