Hello everyone ^/\^

During this hot summer, let's leave our salty sweat at the sea

and bring home some seaaaaa vitamins.

This time, our mission is:

✸ A beach not far from Bangkok

✸ A beach with a short boat ride because I get seasick

✸ A beach with crystal clear water where you can see fish swimming around

✸ A beach that is not crowded and where you don't have to wait long for activities

Let's go without further ado! ╭♥

And the one I'm going to recommend is "Khao Laem Ya - Mu Ko Samet National Park".

Koh Samet: A Tropical Paradise in Thailand

Koh Samet, located in the Sattahip district of Chonburi province, offers a convenient escape from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok.

Getting There:

Simply set your GPS to the "Thai Marine Science Museum" and enjoy a scenic two-hour drive from the capital.

Upon Arrival:

Follow the signs for "Berm" and continue straight ahead.

Drive straight for approximately 100 meters.

You will see a building that looks like this. It's not difficult to find.

Military personnel will be present to announce the location for registering and receiving queue tickets. (It is recommended to arrive early.)

And then we will receive a queue number to wait for purchasing tickets.

Parking is available in this area.

At approximately 8:00 AM, the flag-raising ceremony was completed.

Ticket booths began calling passengers according to their queue numbers, starting with number 1.

Ticket Prices

Adults: 300 Baht Children: 220 Baht (ages 3-18) Foreigners: 600 Baht

The first ferry departs at 9:00 AM.

Subsequent ferries depart every half hour until noon.

While waiting for the ferry, there are beautiful places to take photos.

Or, if you're feeling hot, there are coffee shops where you can sip coffee and enjoy the cool air conditioning.

It's time to board the ship. We need to arrive approximately 15 minutes before departure.

A soldier will tear off the ticket stub before boarding.

A single boat can accommodate approximately 120 tourists.

Just a short 10-minute trip from the mainland to Samaesan Island.

The boat will dock at "Tien Beach".

Friendly soldiers will guide you around the tourist attractions on Koh Saemsan.

There are many activities for you to do, such as visiting different beaches and exploring the island.

Beautiful atmosphere around Haad Thian Beach

Check in at Haad Thian, 0 km.

Leisure time ♥

Seeking shade under a tree with a cool breeze, stealing a glance at the sea - another kind of bliss ♥

To reach Laem Luk Lom Beach, you will need to take a connecting bus like this.

" **Monkey Island**" is located on the west side of Koh Samae San.

It takes about 5 minutes to get there.

At Laem Luk Lom Beach, there are designated areas for relaxing, renting mats, and canvas beds.

The rental fee is 20 baht.

The activity sign-up point and equipment rental are located here.

Fees for various activities are as follows:

Scuba diving: 50 baht/person/round (30 minutes)

Glass-bottom boat ride: 60 baht/person/round (15 minutes)

Kayaking: 60 baht/person/hour.

The fun part of kayaking is the competition. Isn't it? ><

Take a glass-bottom boat, a gray boat with a roof, out to sea.

Enjoy swimming for 30 minutes and watch Nemo to your heart's content.

Little fish, where are you going? Come here.

Do you see that Nemo way over there?

Completely smitten ♥

The final activity is a nature trail hike.

However, due to the weather, we will postpone this activity for now.

Instead, we will take a walk on the beach and enjoy the beautiful ocean view.

Thank you to the officers who are taking care of us from afar.

It's so clear, it's like a mirror.

A rocky corner perfect for taking cool photos.

White sand contrasting with crystal-clear seawater, complemented by perfectly sized rocks, creates a scene that is pleasing to the heart.

After completing your activities, please wash and hang the life jackets for other participants to use.

Food and drinks are available for purchase here.

Tourist Restroom

Upon returning, take the same boat back from Thian Beach.

The last boat departs at 4:00 PM.

Koh Samet is another island

that is perfect for relaxation.

The convenient and compact journey allows us to avoid excessive fatigue,

leaving us with ample energy to fully embrace the joy upon our return home.

Please cooperate by throwing all your trash

into the bins provided by the staff.

This way, we can keep our beautiful beaches clean

for our children and grandchildren to enjoy for many years to come.

If you're looking for a great experience and lasting memories,

don't wait any longer. Pack your bags and let's go on an adventure! :)
