Samui's best beaches line the northern and eastern coasts, the most popular
being Hat Chaweng and Hat Lamai, where generally attractive
accommodation can be found. Other beaches include Hat Choeng Mon, Hat
Mae Nam in the north and Hat Na Thon, the island's major seafront
settlement where shops, restaurants and tour agencies are concentrated. At
the southern end of Lamai Bay are phallic rock formations called Hin Ta
Hin Yai. A path connects the three waterfalls, called Namtok Hin Lat,
Namtok Lat Wanon, and Namtok Na Muang, from west to south. The
waterfalls are best visited during rainy season.
