Rocky cove of red granite boulders framing a shallow reef built by living coral, close enough to snorkel from shore.

About this audio guide
This guide to Coral Cove Beach on Koh Samui's east coast looks past the postcard view of sand and turns to what is underfoot: a shallow reef built entirely by tiny coral animals, and the red granite boulders framing the cove on either side. It traces how a colony with no plan and no memory ends up shaping something that looks designed, and why visitors keep comparing this hidden bay to the Seychelles. Along the way, it covers when to come for the clearest water.
