Explore Choeng Mon in Koh Samui

Set in a quaint little cove, Choeng Mon lies at the north of Koh Samui's east coast, not far from the hotspot of Chaweng and has the same picturesque beaches and clear blue waters but with less of a tourist buzz.

There has been a growth in residential development in recent years, with luxury villas and upmarket resorts amidst the hotels and spas which has created a quieter coastal setting. Choeng Mon focuses on beach activities with lots of water sports on offer, such as snorkelling, scuba diving and kayaking. If you are feeling a bit adventurous, you can wade out to the small island of Koh Fan Noi during low tide, which is just a short distance off the shoreline. The beach itself is much smaller than the other east coast destinations like Chaweng and Lamai but is not short on natural beauty and the tropical island charm.

The town itself is quite quiet, there are excellent restaurants, a couple of five star hotels and a few shops but if you want to go shopping it is just a short ride to Chaweng, the islands main tourist centre. Likewise if you are looking for lively nightlife. For a quieter excursion, you can always make a short journey to Big Buddha Beach or Plai Laem to marvel at their wonderful Buddhist Shrines.

Choeng Mon is regarded as the quieter alternative to Chaweng and Lamai and tends to attract families and mature travel groups, who want to avoid the noise and congestion of the more popular Koh Samui destinations, however it is still close enough to the action for those looking for something more lively.
