Koh Samui Island Hopping: Pig Island | Adorable Little Pigs & Pristine Beaches on a Deserted Island
With its beautiful golden beaches and deeply relaxing holiday vibe, Koh Samui has easily become one of Thailand's most famous resort islands. But the magic doesn't stop there! Surrounding Koh Samui are numerous breathtaking outer islands, including Ang Thong National Marine Park, Koh Tao, Koh Nang Yuan, and the Pha-Ngan Islands. The island we're introducing today is originally named Koh Madsum, but it affectionately earned the nickname "Pig Island" thanks to the many pigs—big and small—that call it home. Not only can you get up close to feed and snap photos with them, but you can also watch these adorable pigs leisurely strolling and splashing around the beach. The contrast of the little black pigs against the pristine white sand, the vast ocean view, and the lush green archipelagos in the distance makes the Pig Island experience truly one of a kind!
