The best Thai restaurant on the southern part of the island. With its great taste and authentic menu, they are becoming very popular. You might have to wait to be seated during high season

After years of disappointment with burgers on the island. My dream finally came thru when I discovered this burger joint. They have 12 different types of burgers to choose from. What ever your preference maybe, be sure to get the Cajun fries for the side.

Parks & Nature
If you only have one place to go while on Koh Tao then this would be it, it is the crown juwels. Nangyuan is the sister island of Koh Tao, ranked by most to be one of the most beautiful site in the world.

Getting Around
Only a few rental place I would recommend on this island. RPM is one of the good ones that doesn't ripped tourist off. Keep in mind that if you damage the bike, you still have to pay. Even a fair price can still be expensive, so be careful!
