Bophut Beach

Bophut Beach is a beautiful beach with a bright mood. The spacious bay with shady palm trees embraces the cheerful hubbub and the joyful pressure of the life of this shore. Bophut is located in the north of Samui and can be divided into two parts: the eastern part of the bay is more quiet and calm, and the western part forms a full-fledged resort called Fisherman's Village.

The main street of the Fishermen's Village runs along the coast and is one narrow street with authentic wooden houses, in which more than one generation of local residents has grown. Some houses have been modernized, but most retain their original appearance. They accommodate local hotels, restaurants, bars and cafes, shops and souvenir shops, studios, spa salons and massage rooms, exchange offices and ATMs, tattoos and art salons. The view of wooden houses, boats and sailboats anchored in the background, create a unique atmosphere for Samui, resembling a Mediterranean resort.
