Spectacular Views

Situated near Deisha Bar, to get there you need to take the main road out of Mae Haad towards Chalok Baan Kao. You will pass the large petrol station and the 7/11 on your right side and continue down the hill.

Look for the sign posts for Sai Nuan beach and you will see a right turn onto what looks like an unpaved road.

Take the right turn (the road is concreted further along) and travel approximately 600 metres up the steep hill until you come to a left turn into another unpaved area.

Welcome to Deisha Viewpoint

Roof Terrace

The roof terrace has comfy beanbags and hammocks for you to lay back, relax and take in the view, or you can walk past the restaurant to the viewpoint itself.

The actual viewing point, which is a large flat boulder, is located about 50 metres beyond the restaurant through the jungle.

It isn’t very large but the view is worth the effort. As one of the less well known viewpoints on Koh Tao, it is rarely busy and offers a peaceful place to take some photos or just relax for a while.
