Koh Tao Arts and Entertainment

Various art forms are presented, such as painting, sculpture, contemporary, photography and crafts. Whether you just want to have a look or wish to purchase something unique, visit the galleries in Mae Haad Bay. In Sairee Beach you can often see creative sand sculptures on the beach and a photo gallery in town. Don’t forget to check out the handmade souvenirs uniquely crafted from coconut shells by Mr. Kiew, located near Sai Daeng Beach.

For body art, there are a lot of outstanding tattoo artists on Koh Tao, such as Thai Art Tattoo and Tattoo by Koko Artwork, providing high-quality work at very reasonable prices, all with a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Most tattoo and body piercing shops are on the three main beaches and offer machined and bamboo tattooing.

Handmade jewellery is one of the handicrafts easily found in various shops and roadside vendors. Some people make items on-site, so you can watch them create their pieces. There are a lot of choices, from inexpensive thread braids and stones to unique jewellery made with antique beads and silver.
