No Overstuffed Suitcases.
by Princess_Emily
No overstuffed suitcases, stop packing stuff your not gonna wear, and if your bags are overweight at the check in counter, you'll wind up paying for the extra kilos.
If your planning on doing some island hopping, travel lite, would recommend a backpack for easy on, easy off, when boarding boats. T-Shirts, Shorts, Sandals, maybe a hat, definitely sunglasses, and sunblock, leave your watch at home, your on vacation. Toilet paper, sanitary wipes, and a small bottle of Germ X waterless soap are nice to have around.
Medical supplies, all the prescription drugs your doctor has you on, and or, a bottle of pain killer for the day after a hard nights partying. Don't forget the waterproof / airtight camera cases for underwater photography.
Power adapters, Chargers, Plug adapters and a extra SD Card for those who really enjoy taking lots of photo's. Plenty of snorkel / dive gear to rent, but for the discerning diver, bringing some of your own equipment is cool. The weather turns bad, you have no choice but to stay indoors, a Nintendo DS or other game console can keep your children, or the child in you, entertained.
If you're lost in Chaweng,Koh...

If you're lost in Chaweng, Koh Samui and stumble in to Christy's Cabaret Bar, be sure aware of the 'ladies' checking you up. The people working here are transvetites and have a show twice a night. The show is hilariously funny, and is absolutely worth a visit. Some men have been fooled...
Bus/Ferry to Krabi
by Willettsworld
It's possible to get a bus/ferry combo ticket to Krabi from Ko Samui. I booked mine through a travel agents in central Chaweng which cost 500 baht. I got picked up early in the morning from my hotel and we picked more people up and headed towards the ferry pier in Nathon. We then transferred onto an oldish looking bus that then took us south to another pier outside Nathon where we got on to the ferry bound for Dousak. The ferries look pretty ancient and simple with no amenities apart from a small snack shop. We left Ko Samui at just after 8am and arrived in Dousak at 9.40am where we got onto another newer bus that took us to a travel agent office in Surat Thani about 68km away. Here we had breakfast even though it was gone 11am and we then got taken to the main bus station and shown to another bus bound for Krabi. We had to wait some 40 minutes for this bus to leave which it finally did at 12.30pm and we arrived in Krabi at 3.40pm.
Excellent Seafood
by globetrotter06 about Happy Elephant
This must be one of the most popular restaurants in Bhoput. Outside before entering you can have a look at how they prepare the king prawns and the fish. The food is really delicous. I'd love to try out this one again.
