What to pack
Samui is very casual and light clothes are advisable
Dont forget the pack flip flips and remember to take them off before entering the villa or any house. Especially, no shoes allowed in a temple. Always cover up when outside your villa.
Thais are very modest and get offened by tourists wearing beach outfits in the streets.
