They offer good medicine against mosquito bites and sunburned skin. A well-known and good pharmacy is Morya with many branches on Koh Samui.
PETROL
You can find petrol for your car at large gas stations or in small bottles at every street. We always prefer to fill up at large official gas stations. The nearest gas station to the villa is in Choeng Mon.
