Overlap Stone 2

Perched on a steep hill in the Maret area of Koh Samui, this natural viewpoint draws visitors with its striking overlapping rock formations and sweeping panoramic views across the island's coastline. The centrepiece is a large balancing rock that makes for a compelling photographic subject, while the elevated position offers sightlines to both sides of the island, making it one of the more rewarding scenic stops on Koh Samui. Visitors can expect a genuine sense of arrival at the top, with a restaurant on site that takes full advantage of the panoramic setting. The atmosphere is relatively peaceful compared to the island's more commercial attractions, and the combination of geological interest and coastal scenery appeals to a broad range of travellers. An entrance fee of 200 THB per person applies. Good to know: Getting to the top involves navigating a steep hill, so those arriving by scooter or car should be confident on steep inclines. A free shuttle truck is available from the base area for those who prefer not to drive the ascent themselves, with the final stretch of road unpaved. Visiting during daylight hours is strongly recommended to make the most of the views and photography opportunities. The site is open around the clock, but early morning visits tend to offer clearer skies and a quieter experience before tour groups arrive.
