Koh Samet (sometimes spelled Ko Samet or Koh Samed) is one of the handy weekend paradise island destinations not far from Bangkok.<\/p>\n
Koh Samet is close to the mainland so its a quick trip by ferry.<\/p>\n
The island is part of the Khao Laem Ya\u2013Mu Koh Samet National Park, and boasts beautiful white beaches, clear blue water and many different bays and coves.<\/p>\n
Some beaches are very lively, others tranquil.<\/p>\n
Amenities mix from rustic bungalows to mid-range resorts to more upscale spots. There are plenty of restaurants, bars, and nightlife (especially in peak times).<\/p>\n
