Day 5 Thursday June 25 2026 (Koh Samui) - my 2nd day in Koh Samui island, visited the Chaweng Beach & the bustling Beach Road by day & night just to get a feel & vibes of this famous paradise in southern Thailand. My last visit to Koh Samui was in June 2013 !

2) Central Samui Mall, Koh Samui - shopping mall with good selection of retail shops, restaurants, cafes, outdoor market & a large Tops supermarket, located in the world tourist paradise, situated in a serene seaside setting in Chaweng Beach, the mall is within easy reach of the island's airport, our hotel is annexed to the mall hence a great place to take "refuge" inside the mall especially in the late morning & midday when the outside temperature is scotching hot !
