Koh Samui’s beaches are renowned for their natural beauty, making them ideal locations for yoga retreats. Many retreats are held near these spots, where the sight of palm trees, turquoise waters, and gentle waves sets a perfect scene for your practice.
Chaweng Beach, is among the most popular and developed areas. The long, sandy beach and numerous dining options make it a convenient location for those who want to balance yoga with a lively atmosphere. Just a short distance away, Chaweng Noi offers a slightly quieter environment while still providing stunning beach views.
Moving south, Lamai Beach serves as Koh Samui’s second-largest resort area. It offers a mix of relaxed, scenic beauty plus a laid-back atmosphere that’s perfect for those who want a bit of activity without the crowds.
On the east coast, Nathon provides a different experience, combining convenience with local charm. Here, you’ll find a variety of restaurants and shops needed for an extended stay, providing easy access to urban amenities while still being close to the beach.
Head to Laem Set Beach on the southeast coast for a more peaceful retreat. Although less developed, this area offers an unspoiled, serene environment for those who want to escape the more tourist-heavy spots. Similarly, Maenam Beach on the north coast offers a quiet setting with beautiful views of Koh Phangan.
