Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 29th April 2019 – 5th May 2019

It's Sunday, noon, a busy morning done and dusted and time for the Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 29th April 2019 – 5th May 2019.
This morning we were in Don Sak. First of all we took the first ferry of the day. Secondly, once in Don Sak I ran my long slow distance Sunday morning run. It's just past noon and we're already on our way back on the Seatran ferry to Koh Samui.

It's around noon now and there is a hazy sky. Loads of blue but also some thin, white clouds in the sky. Did I mention it's hot? 31C on the clock but it feels like we're just about to hit 40C! Another hot day in the making.

Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 29th April 2019 – 5th May 2019

At the Angthong National Marine Park last week. The Blue Lagoon, a salt water lagoon. To have the top view, you will have to climb some steep stairs. Being originally from the Netherlands, I have seen some steep stairs in my life! The stairs at the Green lagoon are in a league of their own though. That was some serious 'steep'. It gives a new meaning the the word 'steep'. Great view though. For only ten times the entrance price compared to what a Thai national pays.

Yesterday saw some showers throughout the day with a real thunderstorm in the early evening. Rain, at last! The island needed a fresh showers or two.
Last week we saw maximum temperatures of 36C. Minimum temperatures hit 27C during the night time. It was another hot week.

This morning my wife wanted to visit the market at Don Sak. Afterwards, we went to Suan Ta San. Here is a small river stream in which you can have your feet cleaned by fish. It's all natural, and the cleaning part is fun and very tickly. At times I had ten or more on my foot. There's a restaurant as well and we had a late breakfast, Isaan style. Entrance is a mere 20.-THB per person. Only 14km from the Seatran ferry.


Next week we may see some strong wind. Specifically Monday through Wednesday. Occasional tropical showers and/or thunderstorms can also be expected.
Enjoy your stay on the island!

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.
