Chaweng Beach, Koh Samui, Thailand

The island beaches of Thailand are all magnificent but Chaweng Beach on the island of Koh Samui is a Budget Jetsetter fave. Koh Samui is definitely the most upscale and chic Thai island, although, there are still low cost options available for those that seek them out. The largest beach on the island, Chaweng, has the perfect combo of everything one seeks in a hedonistic beach destination and a true jetsetter paradise.
A gorgeous strip of white sand beach lined with lush palms and calm, clear, blue sea. There are plenty of activities along the beach to keep you busy including jet skiing, para-sailing, snorkeling, volleyball….or just some good ole day drinking. Make sure to purchase some delicious fresh cut pineapple or roasted corn on the cob, only $1 US, from the local merchants walking up and down the beach.
There is an abundance of accommodations that meet every budget on Chaweng Beach, from small backpacker inns and bungalows to five star luxury resorts. The northern part of Chaweng beach has the more upscale hotels and a quieter strip of beach. The central area has the most budget options and is easy walking distance to all that Chaweng has to offer.
At night Chaweng Beach Road, the main drag behind the beach, comes alive. Tourists stroll up and down the strip seeking bargain shopping and a variety of restaurants for all tastes and budgets. The bright neon lights and pumping dance music of Soi Green Mango, a small street off the main road, draws visitors into the various bars and clubs. You can dance and drink the night away until the sun rises.  For a more relaxed evening you can find some great seafood and chill out lounges playing more down tempo tunes along the beach.
Chaweng Beach is a true jetset destination that allows those on a budget to have an equally fabulous time.
