Mae Nam

Maenam is a quiet stretch of coast in the north of Samui that's popular with backpackers and budget travelers. Perhaps it's the excellent views of Koh Phangan that have kept Maenam as Samui's last predominantly backpacker beach.

At the other end of the scale, Maenam also has a few dependable 5-star luxury resorts for those who want a relaxed stay with excellent facilities.
