Following Thailand reopening its borders, the country has seen an influx of visitors including those on cruise ships travelling to popular destinations like Koh Samui. As highlighted on the Pattaya Mail news website on 19th December 2022, the Mein Schiff 5 cruise liner arrived at the island last year with close to 2,500 travellers from Europe for a one-day visit. This was in fact, only the second cruise ship from Europe to arrive at Koh Samui following the pandemic.
The prospects for this year are even more positive as authorities in Surat Thani revealed that 31 cruise ships are expected; this will no doubt also help the country achieve its arrival target for 2023 which at 20 million travellers, is double the number set for 2022. The island continues to be a top choice for tourists who can enjoy safe accommodation at beachside properties like Avani+ Samui Resort where they can experience coastal fun and stay at a pool villa. Koh Samui will no doubt play a vital role as Thailand gets its tourism industry back on track.
