There are plenty of sightseeing opportunities in and around Koh Samui. These include the waterfalls at Na Muang 1, Na Muang 2, Hin Lad, the mummy at Wat Kiri Wongkaram, the Big Buddha at Wat Phra Yai, the Hin Ta Hin yai rock formations, footprints of Buddha at the Butterfly Garden, Angthong National Marine Park, Secret Hall of Buddha at Wat Sumret and the Mae Ko Island.
The 'Sleeping Cow Island' and 'Three Pillar Island' are also great crowd pullers. The Secret Buddha Garden and the newly built highly decorated Wat Ban Plai Leam are other places to visit.
Temples constitute an integral part of Thai life and offer photographic opportunities. Wats are also places for religious ceremonies and worship. They also serve as locations for holding local council meetings, fun fairs and concerts.
While entering the temples one should dress appropriately with shoulders and knees covered. While speedboat tours and tour boats are available to visit the nearby islands around Koh Samui, bus, Tuk Tuk and ferry trips may be availed for most sightseeing.
