From there, Bangkok Airways flies non-stop to Koh Samui. By night train or night bus, you can reach Chumphon and take a ferry to Koh Tao in the morning. From late October to early January, the northeast monsoon brings most of the rain, so the basil scorpions on Koh Tao move to the sheltered west side. During the southwest monsoon from mid-May, they move to the east coast.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"tauchreisefuehrer-koh-tao-samui","title":"Diving Atlas Koh Tao and Koh Samui","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn Koh Tao, you take a dive center’s day boat out to sea; many centers offer two dives twice a day.
