The high season in Koh Samui begins closer to mid-December, when those who wish to spend the New Year and Christmas holidays by the sea come together. Local traditions also attract tourists during this period. The whole festive atmosphere on the island these days tunes in to the joyful expectation of magic and faith in miracles. This is facilitated by the beautiful weather, when the gentle sun warms with its rays.
One significant drawback during this period is that the rest will result in a decent amount, in comparison with other months. But this Koh Samui is not much different from other resorts in the world. In the midst of the tourist season, the price tag for most services doubles or even triples.
