Accessible by motorbike or an exhausting bike ride, the far southern beaches of Ko Samet usher in a soothing vibe to contrast the bustling north. (Island Daze #24)
There are still some parts of Samet I love. But I was chased away by security and then the manager when I tried to land my kayak on Ao Kiew a few years ago.
I love Samet. I first visited in 1992 and remember when Ao Kiu had only bamboo huts with limited (if any) electricity and cold water only at 200 baht per night, which was outrageous! back then. I still visit on most trips to Thailand. Go mid week to avoid the crowds.

From the Monks who just want to have fun to the ants in the pants to the incredible beaches, this was a great read!
