Ko Samet

( Highly Recommended )

This narrow finger of an island lying just a short distance off the coast of Rayong is still, despite its increasing popularity, a relaxing destination. Distinguished by remarkably white, crisp beaches, it offers sunbathing, swimming, snorkelling and excellent seafood. For nightlife, go to Pattaya instead.
