Koh Samui Shopping

An important part of any holiday is to experience shopping and is a lot of fun to browse through traditional markets and buy souvenirs. While in Koh Samui, check out the island’s shopping centres, malls and flea markets in the areas of Bophut, Chaweng and Lamai.

You will find many markets and opportunities to shop all over the island of Koh Samui.

Koh Samui Shopping Centres, Malls & Markets

You will find many bargains at the smaller local markets scattered around the island and visitors looking for a shopping centre or mall with a bit more variety will find what they need in Chaweng. You will also find some excellent shopping malls in Lamai, Maenam and the Nathon beach area.

If you know how to bargain, then you are in the right place! Most of the retailers in Koh Samui will offer you a great price if you negotiate well.

The Chaweng area has some of the best shopping in all of Koh Samui. Its entire beachfront area is packed with an endless variety of gift shops, fabric stores, and craft stalls – you’ll even find some excellent deals on electronics too! If you check out the stores in Lamai, you will find items at a surprisingly lower price than at some of the other shopping markets. This is because the shopping areas in Lamai are less crowded and less popular.

Even the shopping scene in the Nathon town is vibrant. You will come across a variety of stalls, silk shops and shoe stores here. Stop by and look for an exquisite silk scarf, shirt, or some other products while visiting Nathon.

Overall, the Koh Samui shopping scene is excellent and has lots of variety. Make sure you understand the conversion rates to ensure you get a great deal. Bargaining is a must!
