Ko Samet is a great little
island to come to escape Bangkok for a few days. It’s only 4
hours away and a short ferry crossing so you can leave Bangkok
in the morning and be on the Island in the sun by the
afternoon. I had been here before and really liked this island
purely for it being quite small and not over commercialised like
the rest of Thailand’s islands with McDonalds and the like being
everywhere. Here you just find places to stay and plenty of
beach side restaurants and bars. As well as warm blue clear
seas which is the norm...
It’s only a short walk from the
pier to a good selection of places to stay along the beach. We
had left our big back packs back at our hotel in Bangkok, so we
were travelling light for a few days in the sun.
It sure was hot walking about
looking at places to stay but we found one quite soon near the
main beach. So after throwing our bags in we went and relaxed
in the sun by the sea…
So basically for the next 4
nights, 3 days we chilled out, sunbathed, swam loads, ran loads
and dined under the stars on the beach. The weather was great
and very hot at times as well making us probably the brownest
we’ve ever been…
So from here back to
Bangkok
for our last mad few days left in Thailand! |
