Day 76: Nathon - Maenam
Routing: #4169
I do only post about those 14 kilometers as it is my chronological obligation. I have been coming to Maenam on the northern coast of Samui for more than 20 years now and there are two bungalow resorts I usually do stay at. The Palm Point Village with the smaller bungalows and the much larger Lolita Resort, offering the more spacious fan bungalows too. At 800 Baht per night you pay 300 Baht more too and I always decide which one to go for just before arriving on the island. This time after more than 4 months on the road I wish to have some more privacy and am staying at Lolita´s. I don´t think I will be doing much outside the resort this time as the beach is not only free of sandflies but drops rather quick and allows for proper swimming without having to walk hundreds of meters in the shallow water as in most places on the mainland. Yes, Samui is very touristy but if you are after some days on the beach Maenam is the place to be. I will actually be here for 8 nights through Songkran, meeting Andrew in Don Sak on April 17.
