Welcome to April 2019

Welcome to April 2019

It's not a joke, it's the 1st April and welcome to April 2019.

The first half of the month is going to be busy. The first weekend will see big sporting events on the island.

Saturday 6th April at midnight will see the start of the 7th Koh Samui Midnight run.

The next morning, there's a 10km and 30km  trail run in Maenam, combined with mountain bike races.

Next weekend, Saturday 13th April will see the Thai New Year or Songkran celebrations. If you haven't witnessed that yet, a must see and experience event.

Other than that, April is also the hottest month on Koh Samui. Although, the last couple of years we also had a few showers during April, even on Songkran! Almost unheard of. The first April week looks good though, plenty of sunshine should be there to be enjoyed.

Today it's partially cloudy at 8am and 29C. Expect it to be hot with a fairly high humidity!

Welcome to April 2019

At Wat Bophud or Wat Bophuttaram, during the recent temple fair in March. You can put a one Baht coin in each of the cups and make merit!

Please do 'like' my Koh Samui blog Facebook page and enjoy the beaches around the island or in front of your hotel or resort and get some well deserved rest and a break. 

If you're done resting or need something else to do, there's plenty of things on offer on and around Koh Samui, you can go snorkeling or diving or take a dive course. 

You can also enjoy some of the trips I recommend, like a half day gourmet lunch and snorkeling trip at the Southern part of Koh Samui or a photography trip where you get to see the most photo genetic spots on the island or go for a drinks tasting tour if you like a tipple or two. 

You may also opt for a very special dinner experience at The Thai Experience. Behind closed doors, reservation only and a very enjoyable and well worthwhile way of spending an evening on Samui. Authentic Thai food and a great atmosphere. Can highly recommend this experience. 

Contact me for more detailed information on any of the options mentioned.
