Beach-loving travelers to Southeast Asia<\/strong> during the European summer know that the Gulf of Thailand<\/a><\/strong> receives less rain during the monsoon season. However, this stretch of sea is somewhat isolated from the rest of the country, so it’s important to know how to get from Bangkok to Koh Samui<\/strong> easily if your destination is the largest island in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
