Explore the mesmerising Five Island off the southern coast of Koh Samui. Known locally as ‘Koh Si Koh Ha,’ meaning ‘Four Islands - Five Islands,’ this unique destination offers a blend of stunning natural beauty, fascinating wildlife, and intriguing local culture.
Unveiling the Five Islands
This island is renowned for its swift birds, which nest in the cliffs. Their nests are highly coveted for making the prized ‘bird’s nest soup,’ a delicacy that can fetch thousands of dollars on the black market. While the birds themselves are not protected, their nests are closely guarded.
The Sea Gypsies
The Five Islands are home to the Sea Gypsies, who live a traditional lifestyle in small wooden homes perched on rocky outcrops. With no access to modern amenities like Wi-Fi or electricity, these communities lead a serene, self-sufficient life. Their role is vital as they protect the valuable bird’s nests from poachers, ensuring the preservation of this natural treasure.
Breathtaking Scenery and striking landscapes of the Five Island. The rugged coastline and tropical waters provide a picturesque setting for your adventure. Look out for the wildlife, the swift birds as they flit around their nesting spots in the cliffs.
