About this audio guide
This guide to Taling Ngam beach on Koh Samui's western coast traces the shore's turn from a storm-battered fishing port to today's easygoing water-sports beach. It follows the Chinese and Thai families who built one of the island's earliest seaports here, and the name change that followed. You'll hear how the same calm water that once carried cargo boats now carries kayaks, paddleboards and long-tail trips toward the islands called the Five Sisters. Best experienced at sunset, the old fishing hour.
