Lamai Night Market

Authentic, vibrant, and full of flavor! Lamai Night Market was a highlight of my time on Koh Samui. The atmosphere is relaxed yet lively, with a great mix of locals and tourists. The food options were amazing — from fresh seafood and grilled meats to Thai classics like pad Thai and mango sticky rice. Prices were fair, and everything I tried tasted fantastic. There’s also a fun variety of stalls with clothes, souvenirs, and handmade goods, plus some live music and entertainment that gave the whole place a great vibe. It felt less commercial than other markets, which made the experience feel more local and authentic. Super easy to get to, and perfect after a beach day. I highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area — come hungry!

We loved this night market!!! It wasn’t too crowded and had lots of food options plus live music. It wasn’t the biggest market but it had everything you needed. We also got the Earth Witness Mudra Buddha for 200 baht (down from 450 baht). For food/drink, we got a mango smoothie and passionfruit/mango smoothies for 60 baht each. We also got our first mango sticky rice, fresh shrimp skewers and a chicken skewer. The shrimp and chicken were delicious but I did not like the mango sticky rice. It had a very salty flavor.

A nice night market in Koh Samui. The east side seems to be more fun than the west. You can find lots of food options there and better try sticky rice with mango. For Halal food seekers, there are 3 shops for halal food; shawarma, indian food (biryani, masala, nun bread and many others) and rotti. Bring with you some cash because not all shops offer scan to pay service. However the halal food seems to be a bit expensive compared to night markets in phuket. Apart from that it is a must visit night market worth it. There is a motorbike parking and an exchange office.

Well, you have a couple of great beaches and a few great night market on Koh Samui. We came here on second night and left the place in half an hour cause it wasn’t even close to fun we had night before at Fishermen’s Village night market. Don’t get me wrong.. food is top notch here as well. But given the options, u would suggest you drive another 20 minutes and go to Fishermen village.

Great nightmarket place to grab food and drinks, as well as do some local shopping. There must be like 30 or even 40 food stalls with all sorts of thai, chinese and western (for example pizza & pasta) dishes. The prices are normal, you grab from any stall and sit down and eat in the community space. Love the place!

Lamai Night Market was a pleasant surprise! For a relatively small town, the market is quite lively and well-organized. There’s a great variety of food options — from local Thai dishes to international snacks — and plenty of seating available, which makes the whole experience much more enjoyable compared to some other night markets. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, with a good mix of locals and tourists. It’s a great place to grab dinner, try something new, and enjoy the evening. Definitely worth a visit if you’re staying in or around Lamai!

Clean, organise and happening night market. Not a big market but the foods are nice. We enjoyed the foods and drinks , and live band. Considered the best night market in Samui.
