Koh Samet island is a
very convenient place to visit if you have a few days get
away from Bangkok here is really right place to be. Koh
Samet is part of the larger 131 sq. km Khao Laem Ya - Koh
Samet National Park encompassing Khao Laem Ya on the
mainland as well as various island throughout the region.
Although marine life has suffered over the recent years
due to the waste from development on the mainland,
reasonable snorkeling can still be had off Ko Samet's
southern tip and off Thalu Island.
The island itself is within a National Park, but very
built up with bungalows which line the popular beaches,
although in line with National Park guidelines, the
guesthouses remain behind the tree line. The abundance of
accommodation is well. However there are some beautiful
areas left on the island as holiday makers very rarely
visit the southern coastline which, even in the high
season, remains unscathed by tourists. The eastern coast
is the most beautiful, dotted with sandy beaches, coves
and accommodation, but all parts are easy to visit as the
island is only 6 km long and 3 km wide. Most of the
accommodation is on the eastern side, but it is well worth
a visit to Aow Phrao to watch the sunset.

reasonable rates. Our website will be not only be a source
of invaluable information about the destination but it
