Lad Koh View Point

Lad Koh View Point is a roadside lookout on Koh Samui’s east coast, between Chaweng and Lamai. From its terraces, you can look across the Gulf of Thailand and the island’s coastline, with rocky shore below. Steps and ramps lead toward the water, giving you a closer view of the shoreline. Benches and shrines sit around the lookout, and vendors may have smoothies or coconut ice cream. It’s a handy stop for photos or a short walk along the coast.

Views from the east coast

Lad Koh sits along the island’s ring road on the route between Chaweng and Lamai. The lookout faces the Gulf of Thailand, with a broad view over the eastern coastline, its beaches and the island’s mountains. Rocky formations along this stretch of shore add detail to the sea view.

The elevated outlook is a convenient place to pause during a drive around Koh Samui. The path follows the coast, and the different levels give you more than one angle on the water.

Down to the shoreline

Steps and ramps lead from the viewpoint toward the rocky water’s edge. Take your time on the way down and look back toward the coast; the view changes as you descend. Benches provide places to sit, and small shrines are part of the site.

Vendors may be parked nearby with drinks and snacks. Coconut ice cream and smoothies are among the options mentioned at the viewpoint.
