To the Samat (or just Samat) - one of the most beautiful Thai islands.
Since it is relatively close to Bangkok and Pattaya, then the people on the excursions are touched by the shaft. The chart is associated with the mainland regular ferry line, it is possible to get on it and shustly, on the boat. But, of course, it is more expensive. But this can not get on the pier on the island, but immediately on some of his luxurious beaches, and there are a lot of them!
The island is so impressive by beauty that one Thai poet even wrote about him a poem than and glorified the islands in the middle of the 19th century. Samet is not a very big island. You can say small. In the form of the letter T. Its area is only about five square meters, and it is washed by fifteen bays suitable for swimming. From the mainland to the island - no more than six kilometers (the nearest city is Rayong). The chart is covered with tropical forests, surrounded by beaches and beautiful bays and rocks.
Perfect atmosphere of calm and pacification. There are almost no commercial tourist attractions on the Samat. But something interesting here is still there.
Farm Fish and Turtle
On this farm in the northern part of the sameta, rare species of fish and sea turtles are divorced. Then they are released in the sea. This farm is located a few minutes of swimming on a pier on Dan. In the sense, the farm is right in the sea, north of the island. On this farm you can touch and hold in the hands of the turtles, admire the baby-turtles and in general, it is a very peaceful sight. All Fermi residents are contained in special grids that are connected with wooden bridges.
Island Ko Kut.
This island is 2.5 km east of Sameta. Kout is snow-white beaches, coral reefs and very beautiful species that can be enjoyed from the observation deck on the island. On the island you can walk along the path and enjoy the lagoons, bays and thickets. You can get around the island for 20 minutes - it is completely tiny. Next to Koom there are two more tiny picturesque isle floor by the names of Tai Khao Island, Thami Rueji (Tham Ruesi Island).
the little Mermaid
The poet, about which I wrote above, and who glorified the island, is one of the most respected poets among Thais. So, in his poem, the mermaid saves a prince, who sinks during the shipwreck and brings him to the chart. In honor of the heroes of the work of a beloved poet on the island established this statue. It is located on the rocks between JSC Pai and Hut Sai Keo on Diamond Beach. The monument represents the figure of a mermaid, which, lying on the stone, looks at the prince with love, who plays on a shoe nearby. Little Mermaid, of course, with oriental leaning and in traditional Thai decorations. Well, the prince is also, respectively. Even sits in a half-lotus, in their golden robes. Looks very cute!
Hat Sai Kaew
This is perhaps one of the most popular beaches of the island. In length, it is about one kilometer, in the width of about 30. The name of the beach on Thai means "the beach of crystal sand". In addition, just to enjoy the sun and the sea, you can go on aqueous climb or banana, work out windsurfing. And also occasionally on this beach there are parties. Also next to this beach line you can see bungalows and houses.
AO Noi Na.
This beach is located close to the above. There is a little quieter, so, those who want to privacy, it is worth going here.
Ao Hin Khok.
From Hat Sai Keo, this beach is separated by a rock in pore - on it just worth the rushed statue. This beach is twice and less than Hat Sai Keo, and he also has a strange form. Living on the shore of this beach is more expensive, although here you can find good fish restaurants.
AO PAI.
This beach is pretty popular and crowded, located near Hat Sai. Tanning here cool, but sometimes it can be problematic, as water vapors are formed in the water - but they are denoted by red flags on the surface.
Ao Put SA
This is a cozy cove and a great place for a secluded rest. The beach is equipped, not wild.
AO TUB TIM.
This beach is located not far from the above. There are several hotels and restaurants on the beach.
JSC Nuan.
Pretty calm beautiful beach.
Ao Wong Deuan.
The second largest beach island. Next to the beach is relatively inexpensive bungalows and gest houses, so it's almost always full of people on the beach. Plus, here you can find restaurants.
AO Thian (Candlelight Beach)
Interesting rocky shore with excellent diving places. The beach is absolutely quiet and calm, but equipped.
AO Wai
This beach is looking for two steps from the above Candlelight Beach. Very pleasant place where you can soak in the shade of coconut palm trees.
JSC Kiu Nok.
Another secluded place, without bars and clubs, where it is worth going to the couples to meet the sunset or dawn.
JSC Karang.
In this races you can learn more about how local residents live on the Samayt. And also do not skip fish restaurants in this area.
JSC Wiang Wan.
This beach stands in the west of Na Dan Pier Bay, and this is a great place for fishing.
Ao ProW.
Quiet beach, away from the nightlife of SAMEA. A really quiet corner, with white long beaches, azure waters.
As for night entertainment, they are, as I have already written above, but call the charts with a stormy, wild, unquesting just a language will not turn. Since the beginning of the 80s, the island is considered part of the National Park, so you come here to admire, and not having fun. That is, most bars - on the beaches of Hat Sai Keo and JSC Pai. But do not wait for neon signs, bars with go-go dancers., No. Here is a fire show- please. This good in bulk, in every bar.
Well, what else to add. The climate on the island of this is constantly being almost always excellent, not suffocating heat, in August there are strong rains, in Maessons. In the rainy season on the island well, very deserted, almost all institutions are closed. No, come, of course, at this time you can also, but I'm afraid, it can rain a little spoil the impression of such beauty. And it will be boring. And on the island there are several plantations of coconuts.
In general, this is the very paradise corner of the Bounty, about which you have been dreaming for so long in the stuffy office.
