Samui Elephant Sanctuary was the first Sanctuary to be opened in Koh Samui. Since the Samui Elephant Sanctuary opened popularity and expansion have been a rapid growth allowing them to rescue more elephants for the Samui Elephant Sanctuary.

Samui Elephant Sanctuary’s growth has been possible because of charity funding from tourists and local companies donating funds and arranging charity days throughout Koh Samui.

Samui Elephant Sanctuary is situated in a natural environment in Chaweng and Bophut. The sanctuary includes a large swimming pool for the elephants to cool down and wash.  There is a wet mud area for the elephants to cool down and play.

Samui Elephant Sanctuary offers a haven for the elephants to walk around freely, eat, cool down, and play. No Chains!

There are 6 elephants the youngest 49 years and the oldest 62 years old.

Each elephant has its working history, but they all were made to work for the tourism Industry for elephant riding, logging, and Circus until they were older, then shipped out for elephant trekking.

Now the elephants can find peace to live the rest of their life free!

Join Samui Elephant Sanctuary programs, morning or afternoon. Meet each elephant learn about their hard-working life, and see how they are much happier now, at Samui Elephant Sanctuary.
