About this audio guide
This guide to Choeng Mon Beach on Koh Samui follows the improbable airport built just up the road, and the Bangkok surgeon turned airline owner behind it. It traces the engineers who gambled, in the nineteen eighties, that the island's sea breeze could cool an international terminal with no outer walls. Listen with the wind on your face and your back to the water; it is the same breeze the story turns on.
