Bophut Beach Attractions And Activities Surfs Up

By:


Thailand has some great beaches from Phatong Beach in Phuket to Koh Mun Nork, Desert Island. Its status as a multiple island-nation brings tourists and travelers to its shores by the thousands each year. In Ko Samui, Southern Thailand you will find Bophut Beach that sits in between Big Buddha Beach and Maenam Beach.
There are two parts to Bophut Beach; one is a quaint looking Fishermans Village. This part of Bophut Beach is great for dining with a range of eateries and bars to choose from. However, its not actually a real fishing village and has old Chinese shop houses interspersed with some shops that sell fashionable jewelry and clothing. Visitors to Bophut Beach can go scuba diving or on day dives to either Ang Thong Marine Park, Koh Tao Island or Sail Rock. There are venues offering lessons and dive shops can be easily spotted in the area. To the West of the village is an ideal spot for swimming but the beach is more famous for its water sports that can be enjoyed by visitors to these parts throughout the year from surfing, wind surfing, sea kayaking to yachting.
A tour centre named La Sirene offers tours to a secret location in the nearby island and even jeep rides. Two to three kilometers from Bophut VIllage you will find the Big Buddha statue which is a temple on a tiny island. Its towering Buddha statue is the reason for it being named thus and is well worth a visit when you are in Bophut Beach. Try Go Karting, in a place west of Bophut: the course is suited for experienced racers as well as beginners and they have instructors to teach you from scratch. You can even visit Canopy Adventures to see how monkeys help humans by plucking coconuts; an intriguing way to spend your time at the coast. The presence of tattoo parlous may not be much but Thai tattooists specialize in infamous monk tattoos that claim to give the bearer of the tattoo magical powers.
