Plaza the Green Night Market

Located in Bo Put on the north coast of Koh Samui, this small open-air night market runs every evening from 5:00pm to 10:00pm, making it a consistent option for travellers looking for a low-key alternative to the island's busier tourist markets. Two rows of vendors offer a mix of local street food and casual shopping, with clothing, souvenirs, and handmade goods sitting alongside food stalls serving traditional Thai dishes including soups, curries, and rice sausages. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, drawing a mix of locals and tourists. It is a compact market, so visitors should expect a modest selection rather than a sprawling night bazaar. The food is the main draw for many visitors, with several stalls offering dishes that reflect everyday Thai home cooking. Quality and variety can differ between stalls, so it is worth browsing before committing to a meal. Good to know: While the market is listed as open seven nights a week, visitor reports suggest the full range of stalls is most reliably open on weekends, particularly Saturdays, when the market is noticeably busier and more complete. Weekday visits may find only a handful of stalls trading. Arriving around opening time on a weekend evening is a good way to browse at a comfortable pace before crowds build. Bring cash, as card payments are unlikely to be accepted at most stalls.
