Chaweng Beach in Koh Samui is the island’s most famous and vibrant beach, known for its stunning white sand, crystal-clear waters, and lively nightlife. Chaweng Beach was once a secluded paradise only accessible by boat. Before the island became a major tourist destination, local fishermen and a few adventurous backpackers were among the only visitors. Over the years, it transformed into a bustling hub for tourism, with a mix of luxury resorts, beach clubs, and nightlife hotspots while still retaining its natural beauty.
