Koh Samet ( or is that Ko Samed ?) is one of the closest islands to Bangkok, just 2 hours by car. But it doesn’t make the top 10 list of Thailand’s most famous islands and beaches. If you live in Bangkok, or are traveling to Thailand in 2023, it definitely needs to be on your travel list.

White sand beaches, romantic beach scenes at night, fire shows, snorkeling, boat trips, and cool salty air - this island has some of the best beaches in Thailand, come see them first hand in this love letter to one of my favorite places in Thailand.
