Nightlife on Samui
Chaweng is without a doubt, the busiest of the tourist areas on Koh Samui. A backpackers' haven of the past, Chaweng is now the hectic party centre of Koh Samui. Along Chaweng beach road are a massive range of pubs, restaurants, bars and clubs serving every kind of food and beverage that you could possibly imagine.
The Fisherman's Village is a charming, boutique town with stunning views of Koh Phan Ngan. The narrow beach road is packed with a great choice of restaurants and bars, shopping opportunities and upmarket boutiques. The old wooden shop houses give the place a traditional charm and relaxed ambience which truly is not to be missed.
Bangrak is quieter than the other main beach areas of Samui, but there is a lively nightlife here throughout the high season. Reasonably priced bars and restaurants line the beach road and a large proportion of the customers are local ex-patriats.
Lamai is the second largest nightlife area in Koh Samui. Not as busy as Chaweng, Lamai has a more relaxed atmosphere than it's big sister, Chaweng. There are many restaurants and bars and some popular clubs.
Restaurants
Being a tropical island, Koh Samui has some of the best seafood to be found in the entire world. Local seafood restaurants are experts at serving it as fresh as if it had just been caught. Locally caught fish, crab, prawns and squid can be eaten on a daily basis and at very reasonable prices.
For those less adventurous, Koh Samui is home to Burger King, McDonald's, Subway and all the other big name western fast-food outlets.
