Restaurant Scams in Koh Tao

Sairee Beach Restaurant Bill Inflation

On and around Sairee Beach in Koh Tao, some smaller restaurants catering to divers add items to bills between the time of ordering and the time of paying. Extra drinks, side dishes, or inflated quantities appear on the final receipt. Because many divers are tired after a day underwater, they are less likely to scrutinise bills carefully, and some staff exploit this.
