Samet is
the most famous of Rayong's attractions and offers beautiful beaches
with white sand -suitable for relaxation, water sport activities and
exploring the coral reefs beneath the sea. If you are looking for
a back to nature experience, then Ko Samet is the place to go. It is located some 6.5 km from Ban Phe, offers a range of accommodation, and boat services are available all day long. From its earlier days as a peaceful and inspirational gateway for numerous artists who retreated there to capture the island's natural beauty on canvas, Koh Samet now increasingly attracts the everyday Bangkokian resident and tourist alike to its sandy shores with that same, alluring web of enticement. The secluded bays with their glistening white sand which squelches underfoot like freshly fallen snow are still to be found dotted along the island's east coast, continuing to be the main draw card for visitors, while the hilly interior offers a tropical jungle experience - home to exotic wildlife such as monkeys, numerous species of birds, squirrels and snakes, including cobra. The best examples of coral reefs are sited off the island's southern tip and in some places along the eastern coastline near Wong Duan, one of the more popular beaches, Several establishments on Wong Duan offer scuba diving excursions to these attractive marine sports. |
