AN AUSTRALIAN tourist has died while swimming off a beach on the southern Thai resort island of Koh Samui, police say.

They say a Chinese tourist also died in a separate swimming accident off the same beach.

Police Lieutenant Colonel Apichart Jansamret said the two died on Saturday while swimming off Chaweng beach during high tide. Two other people were injured.

He said there were “no swimming” signs and red flags in place to warn tourists about the dangers of swimming there.

Koh Samui is a popular destination for foreign tourists in Thailand, which last year hosted a record-high 29 million visitors.

The Australian’s name has not yet been made public.
