“See over 50 butterfly species in a botanical rock garden on a hillside, along with a bee house, an insect museum, and a high-angle viewpoint of Na Tian Bay, all within a lush 20+ rai of natural landscape.”

Samui Butterfly Garden (Na Tian Butterfly Garden) is a natural tourist attraction located on a seaside hill in the south of Koh Samui, in the Na Tian Cape area. Spanning over 20 rai, the area is characterized by hills gradually sloping down to the sea of Na Tian Bay, making it outstanding in terms of both biodiversity and beautiful scenery.

The interior is designed as a botanical garden combined with a rock garden, featuring a collection of flowering plants, ornamental plants, Thai herbs, and various forest plants to create a suitable environment for butterflies. As a result, you can see tens of thousands of butterflies from various species flying freely amidst the lush and peaceful nature.

Interesting Learning Zones

  • Insect Museum: Displays rare insects from both domestic and international sources, providing knowledge about species diversity.
  • Bee House: A Thai-style wooden house that simulates a dark honeycomb environment, revealing the life cycle and behavior of bees in detail.

Atmosphere and Highlights of the Area
The overall atmosphere is cool and comfortable due to the sea breeze that blows throughout the day. There are wooden walkways that meander along the hillside, connecting to various relaxation spots and photo opportunities, including the viewpoint on the hilltop, where you can see a panoramic view of Na Tian Bay and the Samui Sea.
