Picture-postcard beaches, world-class resorts and delightful activities galore — if Koh Samui isn’t the ideal destination for your honeymoon, what is? Come, share exquisite moments and make wonderful memories on your postnuptial getaway in Thailand’s second-largest island, idyllic Koh Samui.
A trip to Koh Samui without its picturesque beaches simply doesn’t exist, for its sugary white sands and turquoise blue waters are what put the Thai island on the map for almost all its visitors. Unleash the sun lover and beach bum in you and yours and treat yourselves to a lovely beach picnic at one of Koh Samui’s endless string of pristine beaches. Unwind under swaying palms, sip on tropical cocktails and bask in the tropical sun, losing yourself in the idyllic seaside scene.
Year-round sunshine, crystal clear waters, striking coral reefs and schools of tropical fishes — all join forces to make Koh Samui an excellent snorkelling destination in Thailand. Mask up and hit the alluring waters, where fascinating oceanic wonders galore await your discovery. Feast your eyes on everything magnificent the world underwater has to offer and add a lovely few moments to your honeymoon from beneath the vast tropical blue that make it a truly memorable getaway of your lives.
Contrary to the classic sense of a honeymoon, your grand postnuptial getaway doesn’t just have to be about wallowing in the luxury of your palatial resort or Koh Samui wedding villa. Treat the avid explorer in you and embark on a fun-filled day trip to Ang Thong National Marine Park. The 42-island archipelago of limestone mountains, thick jungle, white-sand beaches, fertile mangroves, waterfalls, coves and lakes is a tropical wonderland, chock full of exciting things to do.
Fun and exciting things to do in the island of Koh Samui may be plentiful, but your honeymoon wouldn’t be complete without treating you and yours to an intimate couple’s massage. Thanks to the ritzy hotels and resorts with world-class spa and wellness facilities that call the Thai island home, including the likes of Avani Samui Resort, a couple’s massage has evolved into an unmissable honeymoon experience in Koh Samui. Come, let your body, mind and soul wallow in rejuvenation like never before.
As the sun goes down and the azure blue skies slowly fade away, nothing says a delightful evening in Koh Samui like a lovely sunset cruise. Hop aboard a boat and set sail into the wide-open seas, taking in the picture-postcard seaside scenery all around you, as the golden vault of heaven lingers in the backdrop. Exquisite romantic moments on your much-awaited honeymoon are only going to get as good as this.
