KO SAMUI ISLAND
Our new destination for Winter 2024/25!
Your learning paradise for kitesurf and efoil
Year round natural blessing
The second biggest island of the country, located at 25km from the coast in the Gulf of Thailand, Ko Samui can be reached by plane directly from Bangkok, or with a bus or train ride with a ferry connection at Surat Thani.
Part of a national parc composed of an archipelago formed by 85 islands, Ko Samui is rich in natural resources. Its main economic activity was initially that of fishing, then the extraction from coconut trees, and more recently tourism. Beautiful white sand beaches and corals have attracted an increasing international clientele.
The climate is pleasant year round, relatively dry with temperatures around 30 degrees celcius. The island is blessed with constant light winds during the winter months.
