Recommendations for Koh Samui

[infoarmor]

Infoarmor,

If you don't mind me asking, why do you want to Samui?

I know this sounds like a ridiculous question, but you failed to indicate exactly what it is that you're interested in - and the reason(s) why Samui is on your list.

Honestly, what I remember most about my trip to Samui was the overwhelming feeling of excitement and sheer exhilaration as I sat in the Samui Airport waiting for my return flight to Pattaya.

I'm just staying there for three nights. I want a beach-and-nature break after a 2.5 weeks of BKK's hustle and bustle.
Also, only found out last week that this Taiwanese friend of mine is ow living there with his Polish bf. He is the one that suggested the gay resort.
He is also said that there is a gay bar, but as I said I'm not sure if I want to go as my purpose in Samui is just sheer relax, but with the enjoyment of a Thai twink after dinner.

I might go with him and his bf though at a nude beach in there, so overall it should be a good time.

Is there any gay-scene in Koh Samui, with f.e. bars with boys to off?

Yeah, there are just bars where gay people get together, but according to my friend there are plenty of mbs in the apps.
I'm not really into paying sex, so don't know about the rates but most probably cheaper than in Bangkok.

As far as I know, public nudity is prohibited in Thailand, even prosecuted. If at all, a nude beach can only be on private property. If there is such a place, let us know.

Public nudity is prohibited in TH, private beaches doesn't exist since sea is the property of the King. The only option you have: private pool/garden/sauna/etc. and nude party there.

Thanks for providing this legal perspective on nude beaches, Moses. My Taiwanese friend told me that the naked beach is a bit further from the touristy area and that the crowd in there is always pretty small, but I think it does exists, as he sends to me naked pics on a beach from time to time.
I'll write a report once I'm there.

Unfortunately, I won't be in Samui during the week of Ko Phanghan Full moon party, for which Samui acts as a base to/from that island and the number of visitors, both Thai and foreigners is much higher than the rest of month.

I hear you loud and clear.

I need a nature break after enduring just a few days of Bangkok's hustle and bustle, and Samui does provide a nice relaxing environment.

I've read some of the other posters comments regarding "nude beaches" and agree that nude sunbathing is prohibited in Thailand, but that doesn't meant these places don't exist...because they do.

Three that I know of include:

The town of Khun Han (SiSaket Province) - A short walk down a winding river that leads from the base of the Huai Chan Waterfalls is a small secluded sand bar which is known by the locals for its "clothing optional" policy. Mostly younger generation Thai boys (gay and ladyboys) go there on weekends. I spent many memorable (and eventful) weekends there during my time in SiSaket

Ao Prao Bay on the island of Koh Samet - Another short walk over mounds of coral (wear shoes) at the northern-most tip of the bay is another spot nudists are known to gather. The few times I wandered that direction I saw mostly small groups of senior citizens. Those kinky devils!

Hat Nang Ram Beach - located on military property along the eastern seaboard in Sattahip. Just like the others, a short (and rugged) walk is required to find this small strip of sand which is hidden around a small hill which borders the southern tip of the beach area. This is not an official nudist area by-no-means - just a place that Jai and I found where we can toss the briefs and do the wild thing out in nature.

Applying the word "Prohibited" in Thailand is a bit humorous.

I had never heard of this province and it seems to be a bit remote but it definitely has all the elements that make it worthy of a visit.
Waterfall, beach and young guys that not only don't mind being naked in the open but are even eager to jump into action.

I guess that's the essence of this forum. Getting first-hand info that you can't easily find out there, even on so called travel gay sites.
