Koh Samui
Nathon Pier is one of the main ferry ports for travel to and from Koh Samui, located on the western side of the island near Route 4169 and a convenient destination choice for tourists headed to the Four Seasons Resort, the Mai Sumai Beach Resort and Spa, and more.
The old port town of Nathon itself is one place you really shouldn't miss during your stay. With a history stretching back through centuries of fishing and coastal trade, there are very old Chinese shop houses still selling and serving, and it's an interesting getaway from the typical tourist attractions. Nathon also is quite near to three temples - Chaeng and Khong Kharam, as well as Hin Lad temple and the beautiful waterfall that shares its name.
The pier is ideally situated for visitors who are heading to Koh Pha Ngan and Koh Tao too, for world-class diving, beautiful beaches and lush tropical forests - but the pier itself has quality amenities. A wide variety of hotels, ATMs and banks, restaurants and shops are just beyond the pier entrance in this business center of the island. The pier itself welcomes hundreds of travelers each day, as countless tour and transfer ferries dock or depart, along with fishing and other boats that make for a busy scene.
