Scootering Around the Island

We hired a scooter and went around the whole island - it was great, and such spectacular scenery on the way.

Legend Has it......

The legend goes that these rocks were created when a couple were travelling by boat with their son to his forthcoming wedding. The unfortunate family were caught in a violent storm off the coast of Koh Samui and their vessel capsized. Unable to swim, they drowned and magically became the rocks as a sign of their good intentions towards son's proposed bride and her family.


They are known as Grandfather and Grandmother Rocks.....


The Grandfather Rock




Also known as The Sleeping Grandfather ...lol...
