Na Muang Waterfall
น้ำตกหน้าเมือง
Koh Samui's best-known waterfall. Below the purple rock face of the first fall is a natural pool for swimming, while the second fall requires a hike.
Na Muang Waterfall lies in the mountains of south-central Koh Samui and has two parts. Na Muang 1 is about 18 meters high and reached by a few minutes' walk from the car park. A large pool beneath it is good for swimming. Na Muang 2 is about 80 meters high and requires a roughly 30-minute climb along a forest trail. The path is steep and slippery. Both falls are free, or cost only a parking fee. From Lamai, the drive takes about 15 minutes. The water flow is best after the rainy season and lower at the end of the dry season. Wear non-slip shoes and do not climb on top of the falls.
