Thailand | Koh Samui Island

With its cobalt blue waters and honey-colored sands, coconut trees jutting forth from palm-fringed beaches, and small fishing villages and five-star resorts lining the coasts in every direction, Koh Samui is, by all standard and accepted definitions, an island paradise. It’s reputation with travelers and backpackers and attendees of countless destination weddings every year is pretty much unrivaled. And rightfully so. It’s beautiful. Trust me. I spent three full days doing little more than zigzagging the entirety of the Thai island on a motorbike and taking pictures for a photo essay for Fah Thai magazine, which you can see in the previous post. Here are some outtakes and personal favorites from the trip. Enjoy. And as always, you can see more of my travel photography on my website.
