Ban Plai Rik

We departed Krabi at 7am, caught a double decker bus then a speedboat to Koh Samui. In total the journey took around 5 and a half hours. We arrived at 1pm and as usual picked up a scooter to explore the two popular Na Mueng waterfalls. Na Mueng waterfall I was lovely but having read about the less well known Na Mueng II, we decided to take a visit. Unlike the first, Na Mueng II didn't have a top as such but after a 20 minute walk up we arrived at this quiet pool overlooking Koh Samui with some absolutely stunning views over the jungle. We tried to trek up a little further to see what else was higher up, however the route became too tricky so we reluctantly returned back to the pool halfway up. We then enjoyed some time to take in the amazing views as well as a dip in the pool although this was pretty chilly!Read more
