Coco Tam’s
Coco Tam's sits on Bo Put Beach on Koh Samui's quieter northern coast, drawing a steady crowd of visitors with its nightly fire shows and relaxed beachfront setting. The combination of genuine entertainment, a laid-back atmosphere, and mid-range pricing makes it a reliable evening option on this stretch of the island, whether the goal is a full dinner or just drinks by the sea. Seating comes in two styles: bean bag chairs directly on the sand with low tables for a more casual, ground-level experience, or elevated platform beds that work well for groups of three or more. The food menu holds its own as a dinner destination — the pizza in particular earns consistent praise from visitors and is worth ordering rather than treating the venue purely as a drinks stop. The atmosphere builds gradually through the evening, with the fire show serving as the clear centrepiece rather than a background novelty. Good to know: arriving around 30 minutes before the first fire show is generally enough to secure a sand-level seat without difficulty. Service can feel stretched and disorganised during busier periods, so patience is useful at peak times. Opening hours are not listed online, and the venue does not currently have a website, so it is worth checking current hours with your accommodation before heading out — particularly if visiting outside of the main tourist season.

Visitor Reviews
Definitely go here for the fire show! Show up approx around 5:30pm to get a seat on the sand in comfortable bean bag chairs with a table. It’s amazing! There is other seating for 3+ on elevated “beds” as well. We loved the bean bag chairs, we chose to sit close to the back away from the water only so we could see everything all around us. You can walk into the water no matter where your seat is but if you don’t like the smell of kerosene then the first row might not be what you want. Just a tip! I don’t believe you can go wrong choosing a seat though. The fire show is absolutely amazing and goes for 45 minutes at 7:15pm. We’ve seen fire shows before in Asia but this one was just awesome. Family, kids, couples, groups of friends of any ages can all enjoy this place. The service was great especially for how many people were along the beach. Pricing is about $7/beer bottle and $15 for a pizza (Canadian). Not bad when you see where you are and get the show that you do! The menu has pizzas, appetizers, pad Thai and a HUGE cocktail list. This place plays fun music and offers hookah as well. They have another fire show at 9pm which I didn’t see but the line up was approx 10 people long which isn’t bad. They take credit cards but don’t have a hand held machine on the beach so you just have to go pay at the bar. They charge 3% for credit card transactions which was fine. They don’t take reservations on weekends. I would like to give a shout out to Mark! He was the person I was emailing asking some questions before coming here and he was very thorough, offering a ton of information for me as well as a super speedy reply every time. Awesome customer service. The beach is also very clean and feels great on the feet when sitting and enjoying drinks, food, beautiful views and a fire show!
We had a really lovely dinner at this beachfront restaurant. Our table was close to the beach, giving us a beautiful view of the ocean along with an impressive fire show that made the evening feel extra special. For food, we ordered the tuna salad, pizza, pasta, and a cocktail. Everything was great and very tasty—especially the pizza, which honestly felt like one of the best in Samui. The service was also very good: friendly, attentive, and proactive. The only downside was that the dishes didn’t arrive at the same time. We received the salad first, then one pizza quite a bit later, and finally the rest of the food. After we finished and paid, we asked if we could move down to sit on the beach. “ Khun Rud Peerapat” was extremely helpful and found us a perfect spot right by the water. It really made the whole experience even better. Overall, it was a very nice evening with great food, a beautiful view, and excellent service. Would definitely recommend!
My wife and I were regular visitors to Samui Bophut Beach since 20 years ago. We were back from 29 December 2025 to 3 January 2026 to celebrate our 40th Anniversary cum Countdown 2026. We were so happy to see Coco Tam’s Khun Tee, Santi, Sea and team again. 2025 countdown we enjoyed so much with them. The Managers and team were super friendly, warmth and service excellent. On top of superb services, the food created by Chef was delicious and amazing. For our past 6 days, we just dine here everyday. Highly recommended a few dishes we will ‘love’ it so much… *Lobster ‘Angel Hair’ with bacons (our number 1, eaten 4 times) *Herb fried chicken *Seafood Spicy soup *Mango Sticky Rice Thank you so much for the reservations, and also our requests arrangements. So fun to celebrate our Countdown with you guys…Amazing and Memorable : ) We will be back to Countdown 2027!!!

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars
Carry Your Passport or a Copy
Clubs and some bars check IDs strictly, especially in Bangkok's Thonglor, RCA, and Sukhumvit areas. A photo of your passport info page on your phone usually works, but carrying a laminated photocopy is safer.
Know the Closing Times
Legal closing time is 2 AM for most venues, though enforcement varies. In Bangkok's designated entertainment zones (RCA, Silom Soi 2/4, Khao San), some clubs stay open until 4 AM. Islands tend to be more relaxed about hours.
Buy Bucket Drinks Cautiously
Island bucket drinks (mixed spirits in a small bucket) are cheap and fun but notoriously strong and inconsistent. Stick to one, stay hydrated, and never leave your drink unattended at beach parties.
