Thong
Krut
Thong
Krut is a busy little fishing village located on the far southwest
of the island. The village is crammed with tour companies
and restaurants as it is the departure point for ships to
Ko Tan and other small islands off Samui's south coast. One
sure thing about the beach of Thong Krut is that it's not
good for swimming at all, not to mention for water sports.
It is really just a mudflat so it's better to go further north
and east for wonderful beaches and sands. The village is worth
visiting to see "Kor Lae", the brightly colored
fishing boats, and the authentic culture of a Muslim fishing
neighborhood. You can also visit the village to view the spectacular
scenery across to Tan and Matsum Islands. The tour companies
concentrated within Thong Krut offer boat trips to the islands
and fishing trips. Not just a jumping off point to islands
offshore south of Samui, Thong Krut is also the best area
for fishing expeditions.
