Surat Thani: Location and Geography
Known in Thai as “City of Good People”, Surat Thani was once the seat of the ancient Srivijaya empire. Surat Thani lies 651 km south of Bangkok and is located near the mouth of the Tapi River on the Gulf of Thailand. Today, this typical Thai town is a busy transport hub moving cargo and people around the country. Travelers rarely linger here as they make their way to the popular islands of Ko Samui, Ko Pha-Ngan and Ko Tao, but it’s a great stop if you enjoy real Thai working cities, good southern street food and nosing around colorful Chinese temples and shopfronts. Our car hire Surat Thani services will make exploring the city easy and fun.
