Sunset Beach and Luboa Bay (Koh Pu)

7° 50.2′ N · 98° 56.6′ E

The secluded beaches of Koh Pu, the island's northern half, below the mountain, with a few rustic resorts and bars and the island's best sunsets.

Practical

Position from the OpenStreetMap beach (Hat Ao Luboa). Sunset Beach and Secret Beach are about 20 to 25 minutes' drive from the south of the island (samuiislandexplorer.com). Bonhomie Beach Cottages and Sunset Beach Bungalows are on North Beach (Wikivoyage). Most of the island's monkeys live on Koh Pu and they steal, so keep bags closed. West-facing and exposed in the SW monsoon.

Sunsets away from everyone
