Mandarin Beach Villa beachfront observations — 10 October 2026, Lipa Noi
Coverage: the beachfront and water visible from Mandarin Beach Villa’s fixed camera only. Conditions at other properties are not observed. Reporting period: 10 October 2026, Thailand time.
Automated observations of the beachfront directly in front of Mandarin Beach Villa, from the villa’s own fixed camera at Lipa Noi, Koh Samui. Each entry summarises footage sampled during that hour, in Thailand time. Hours with no entry were not sampled; hours whose footage could not be assessed say so.
Owner-operated automated visual observations. These are not water-quality tests, official tide measurements or confirmation that swimming is safe.
Time-lapse of the day's sampled frames, 10 October 2026 — the same privacy-cropped frames as the archive, played in order.

Observation detail
Observation ID MBV-OBS-20261010-175036-2A4F
12 frames sampled across 60 seconds of footage. Sampled footage from the preceding hour, not continuous coverage.
Limitations
["Low sun angle and dusk lighting limit fine detail in distant water areas", "Cannot determine tide state (rising/falling) from static frames", "Cannot assess water quality or cleanliness from visual frames alone", "Areas beyond the camera's fixed field of view cannot be assessed"]}
These observations describe only the beachfront and water visible from Mandarin Beach Villa's fixed camera during the sampled window; they do not establish conditions elsewhere along Lipa Noi or outside another property.
