You step from the pier as the Red Baron’s twin masts cut the sky—red sails filling while teak decks gleam under a tropical sun. The junk slips away from Koh Samui’s shoreline and the island’s green ridges fall back, leaving a string of white beaches and limestone silhouettes ahead. Morning light finds Lamai’s bay, then Choeng Mon’s calm water; later the boat slows near Koh Tan and Koh Madsum so the reef can pull you under with bright fish and coral.
