"A great getaway, developing fast so go soon....." Ko Samet by hasthetravelbug
Ko Samet Travel Guide: 262 reviews and 620 photos
Ko Samet is not a party island, not too developed in the south, and has great white sand beaches. Its a great getaway from the busy city of Bangkok and is only about 3 hours away. If you're waiting on a visa and crave the beach, Samet is the island for you.
- Pros:Great getaway close to Bangkok, not too developed yet
- Cons:The island is becoming developed very quickly
- In a nutshell:A quick getaway from the noise and smog of Bangkok....
