In collaboration with the Tourism Authority of Thailand, Samui Municipal and the Tourism Association of Koh Samui (TAKS), Bangkok Airways launches the Samui Island Marathon 2011 to compete for HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Cup. The prize is over 3 million baht which is the highest record in Thai marathon’s history.
During the rainy season from June to October there are fewer tourists than usual on Koh Samui. At this time of the year several events are organized, especially athletic events like the Samui Island Marathon 2011, in order to attract more tourists.
The event will be held on 18 September 2011 on Koh Samui. The start and finish point will be set at Nathon Pier. Everyone is welcome to participate. The competition is divided into different categories; Full Marathon (42,195km), Half Marathon (21,1km), Quarter Marathon (10,55km), Samui Student Marathon (5km) and Fun Run (2km).
