Why go

Its proximity to the Rayong coast makes Ko Samet an island choice for a shorter coastal break. Comparing the named bays is the useful decision: Hat Sai Kaew is the main beach focus, while Ao Tubtim and Ao Wong Duean offer other shore settings. Parts of the island fall within a national park, so beach access and park rules should be checked for the specific area.

What to look for

  • Hat Sai Kaew is a prominent sandy beach.
  • Ao Tubtim is a separate island bay.
  • Ao Wong Duean offers another beach setting.

Useful to know

  • Choose a bay before arranging the crossing and onward island transfer.
  • Check park rules for the exact beach you plan to visit.
