About Soi Sim Island

Soi Sim is a calmer alternative to its busier neighbour Titop. Its beach of coarse golden sand is backed by dense scrub of the rosy-flowered sim plant that gives the island its name.

A short, sometimes steep path leads to a modest viewpoint, while the shallow water makes it a relaxed spot for a swim away from the crowds.
