Koh Samui, a perfect island experience, even for Jews traditionalists.

Koh Samui offers a great experience that combines attractions and relaxation for everyone. Whether you are with friends, family or couple traveling on the island, you can easily find the right entertainment for you, without sacrificing tradition.

Koh Samui is the second largest island in Thailand after Phuket. The island is located in southeast Thailand and has 63,000 residents, many of whom are involved in the island's highly developed tourism industry. There are several ways to get to the island from Bangkok or Phuket. You can get by train and shuttle, or bus and ferry but leave all of these. Pay a little more money and go on an hour's flight from Bangkok or Phuket and save yourself the hassle of traveling by public transport, forcing you to rub shoulders with the local population.

Koh Samui Beaches

When talking about Koh Samui, talk about beaches. There are beaches that are more suitable for attractions and action and there are beaches that are more suitable for quiet and tranquility. I'll give you some order so you can choose the beach that suits you best.

The largest and most luxurious beach with its many attractions is Chaweng Beach. The beach is located in the eastern part of the island and is 6 km long and offers a wide range of attractions such as water sports, jet skiing, paragliding and more in Chaweng, located on the east side of the island. And is 6 km long. The beach offers a variety of attractions such as water sports, jet ski, paragliding and more.

Along the coast there are many hotels, bustling markets 24 hours a day and rich nightlife. There are many clubs in the area but the noise does not reach the hotels, so you can sleep in peace. In addition, the water on the beach is quiet and low to a relatively large distance into the sea, so the beach is ideal for washing children.

Lamai Beach - This beach is a beach that began to develop first on the island, when tourists began arriving. It is the second largest beach after Chaweng Beach. Blamay has a wide variety of water sports for its variety and diving. The water in the area is deeper than Chaweng so the beach is less ideal for swimming children.

Beaufort Beach - This beach is relatively calmer than Chaweng and Lamai and has the charm of an authentic beach that has not changed over the years. In order to swim with pleasure, it is recommended to reach the western part of Bopot Beach, because the eastern part is full of seaweed. Near the beach there are narrow alleys and an older area called the Fisherman's Village where there are beautiful markets where you can buy many things.

Mai Nam Beach - The beach is located in the northern part of the island and is a 5-kilometer-long golden pearl of sand, the place is quiet and relaxed and has a lot of Chinese influence, the beach has a small Chinese town with small, charming wooden shops that do not look as grand as Thailand's big markets, How they lived centuries ago, so you can also buy and see a piece of history and local culture.

Chong Moon Beach - If you want to lie quietly on a lovely beach among Cox trees and forget the troubles of the world, this is the beach for you. The beach is located in the northeastern part of the island. Near the coast there is a small island called Pan Noi Line that can be reached on foot when there is a low tide. The place also offers varied water activities and near the island there is a small town with lots of shops where you can buy anything you need. If quiet is what you want, this beach will provide everything you need.

Attraction in Koh Samui

There are so many attractions on the island that include Benji jumping, omgas, ATVs, jeeps and much more. I will introduce you to the five teams that are also good for children.

Paradise Park Koh Samui. The place is a very large tropical zoo located in the middle of the island. The place has local tropical vegetation and you can see and caress a wide variety of animals such as peacocks, reindeer, ponies, monkey goats, reptiles and many types of birds. The park is located on a mountain overlooking the sea surrounding the island, which creates a very spectacular view.The park is really perfect for children and it is very worthwhile to take them there.

A trip to 42 islands. The trip is a kayak cruise between authentic and spectacular tropical islands. During the cruise you will get snorkels that will allow you to dive and see the rich diversity of underwater life and flora under the clear waters of the islands. Another nice attraction on a cruise is a stop on the island where there are monkeys who live in nature and you can see them.

horseback riding. There is an option to ride for an hour or two with horses on marked and comfortable trails along the island's beaches. This is a great experience for the family and it is not a bad experience for couples who want quiet romance and far from the island's hustle and bustle. Please note that the ride is not intended for children under the age of five and for pregnant women.

Jeep Safari Tour in Koh Samui. The tour is a safari tour with an open 4x4 jeep in the wild landscape of Koh Samui island. During the trip you can stop and refresh in the cool waterfalls of the island. In addition you will reach a high mountain range and a place called "the rocks of Grandpa and Grandma" all of which are very beautiful observation points on the island. In addition to the observations there are also elephant safaris and monkey and crocodile shows. The trip also includes a visit to the Big Buddha Temple from which you can be impressed, either inside or outside.

Day trip to Kutau and the coral sanctuary of Nang Yuan. This is a trip for the diving enthusiasts and the landscapes between you. During the trip you will enjoy diving at one of the diving sites that rank in a very high place among the most beautiful dive sites in the world. In addition to diving, there are kayaking, snorkeling and lots of sun and beautiful views.

Lots of beaches, lots of attractions, I have not forgotten the tradition

In Koh Samui there is a Chabad House that offers a wide range of services for those who want to observe the tradition, and there is a synagogue where all the prayers can be recited at the times of prayer, Chabad House, so you will not have to go there on Shabbat.

Kosher food is also important and at the Chabad House you also have a pizzeria, a dairy restaurant and a meat restaurant, all kosher, all tasty and high quality at reasonable prices for every pocket. Shabbat, so that those who come after you can also enjoy Shabbat meals. There is also a ritual bath for women. In order to immerse in the mikvah, it is necessary to determine in advance.

Below the Chabad House there is the tourist center which is under Israeli ownership, and it is highly recommended to close all the tours through this center, even if they cost a few more shekels. Better than Jews.

In Koh Samui, as in Thailand, it is hot and there is plenty of moisture. Take light clothes from pleasant fabrics that will allow you to maintain modesty without over-brewing and sweating.
