Koh Samet Holidays

Tranquil beaches with paradise landscapes and a laid-back atmosphere makes it all the more surprising that it is so easy to get to Koh Samet in Thailand. The east coast of this long, thin island is studded with dazzling white sand beaches lapped by transparent, turquoise seas and backed by lush tropical jungle.

Koh Samet is a small island within the Khao Laem Ya-Mu Ko Samet Marine National Park in the Gulf of Thailand. Despite its diminutive size, Koh Samet boasts some of the most beautiful coastlines in Thailand. If you love fishing and watersports on unspoilt beaches, then this is your ideal holiday haven.

Blissful beaches on Koh Samet holidays

A good range of accommodation, beachside bars and restaurants, create a relaxed vibe on Koh Samet holidays. Sit with your toes in the sand while having dinner and watch the locals perform fire shows in the evening. The sunset from the dramatic cliff side locations along the southwest coastline is another sight not to be missed. When you have had your fill of enjoying the warm Koh Samet weather on the beach, visit the southern part of the island - Ao Karang - to observe traditional life with local residents.

Koh Samet’s unspoilt natural environment and good range of facilities for watersports make it the perfect beach break as part of your exciting cultural adventures in the Far East: you can travel from Bangkok to Koh Samet in just a few hours by road.

We highly recommend you add a city stopover in Bangkok for a wonderful city and beach combination holiday in Thailand. If you have more time, explore northern Thailand and its amazing mountains and indigenous hill tribe communities with a few days in Chiang Mai.
