   Next your tour will take you to a quiet beach at the southernmost tip of Koh Samui, to visit Laem Sor Pagoda, situated at the edge of the sea. Its golden pagoda makes for a particularly stunning contrast with the blue waters of the ocean, a unique photo opportunity.
   
   About a hundred meters away from the pagoda you will find a shrine for local fishermen. People come here to pray and if their wishes come true, they buy a small model boat to add to the shrine.
