How To Get To Maenam Beach Koh Samui

Maenam Beach Koh Samui is located in the very North of the island along a beautiful strip of sand.

We stayed in the Chaweng area of Koh Samui and rented a scooter for 150 Baht per day. This gave us access to the whole island!

It took us around 30 minutes to drive up from Chaweng to Maenam Beach, and whilst in the area we definitely recommend checking out Bophut Beach & Bophut Fisherman Village which are just 5 minutes down the road.

If you’re looking for transport to and from Koh Samui, you can pre-book all of your Lomprayah transfers.

For those short on time, or that prefer everything to be organised for them, there are some awesome tours on Get Your Guide available to book in advance.
