Located at the top of Pom Mountain, one of the most elevated area in Koh Samui, the Secret Buddha Garden lies. The entire garden was the beloved project of Khun Nim, a retired farmer who worked on it for 14 years until his death at the age of 91. He originally envisioned the place as an oasis to meditate and relax in solitude and as his final resting place one day. Over the years Khun Nim added houses with roofs covered in vegetation that travelling monks could use as a place to rest or meditate.
Home to a massive 12-meter-high gold Buddha statue, Phra Yai (also known as the Big Buddha Temple) is one of the most famous temples in Koh Samui. Aside from the main Buddha statue, there are also smaller statues here, as well as unique bells on the grounds of the temple that you can hit with a wooden stick as you walk around this impressive statue.

Cultural temples
Kuan Yin Temple
This Chinese temple has a rich history which dates back to 1990 where most of the island was without electricity. It was founded by Mrs Malawan who had a dream about the Chinese Goddess Guan Yin who advised her to establish a firelight on the island. You will find a statue of Guan Yin, a magnificent statue of a smiling buddha and many Taoist deities.
Malibu Beach is one of the hidden gems and most beautiful beaches of Koh Phangan. Featuring crystal water, white sand and bright green round trees growing right in the sand.
Haad Salso known as Secret Beach, is one of the newer Beaches of Koh Phangan right next to Koh Raham which is a beautifully decorated Bar which much love to every detail.
Thong Nai Pan area is split into two beaches whereas Noi means small. It is located on the quieter part of the island which makes it a perfect spot for relaxing your mind and soul.
Haad Salad beach, also known as Coral beach, is famous for its beautiful white sand cove with blue and green water. Surrounded by plenty of Palm trees which give you the perfect hide from the sun during a hot day.
Haad Rin is the most famous beach all, and one of the busiest places in the island. Once a month it is the location of the iconic Full Moon Party, which draws in thousands of visitors.
Bottle beach viewpoint is by far the best viewpoint of Koh Phangan. You will get a magnificent view over Bottle beach and the pristine jungle. You can either get there by taxi boat or by bike. If you go by bike, park it at the parking spot as close down to the beach, as it is impossible to ride back with a motorbike. You can either walk down to the beach which takes around 15 minutes or call a 4WD taxi. From the beach it takes around 45 minutes by foot up the mountain and through the jungle to get to the viewpoint. We recommend wear shoes and don’t forget to take water, and your camera with you!
Amsterdam Bar is the most visited viewpoint bar of Koh Phangan. It is one of the best spots on the island to catch a memorable sunset overlooking the ocean.
360 Bar is a great spot to enjoy an amazing view during the day or sunset. It features a 360 degree view over the island. The road up there is quite steep so be careful going up there with a scooter. Due to recent times, the bar is not in the greatest condition but the view definitely makes it up.
Phaeng Waterfall is located in a jungle area of the Than Sadet National Park. Close by is also the Dom Sila viewpoint which is worth a visit as it is nearby.
We recommend going there to go during the wet season otherwise there is not much water running down.
Than Sadet Waterfall is the most scenic waterfall of the island. It is a cascading fall about 3 kilometers long with plenty of freshwater pools where you can cool down from the heat.
A small paradise island isolated in the gulf of Thailand. Koh Tao is located on the east side of the Surat Thani coastline, 30 min from Koh Phangan featuring iconic hill climbs to hill top views capturing Instagram’s best island vista.

While some styles of meditation promote and enhance ability to remain focused, Inner Walk Meditation allows us to practice the art of observation. Or in other words, instead of practising “being awake”, we are practising “waking up”.
