Just 10 minutes by foot or a 10 baht songthaew ride brings you to Hat Sai Kaew or Diamond Beach as it is know sometimes. It is by far the largest and the most popular beach on Ko Samet.

It is located in the North-East of the Island and it is about 1km long. This is the really the beach you choose if you like to have people and activities around you, but at the same time it still remains paradise. The sand is almost pure snow-white and the blue colour of the sea begs you to swim in it.

The shoreline has an abundance of bungalows, restaurants, and small gift shops selling typical Thai gifts. Deckchairs ,mats and parasols are available along the beach. The beach is both popular with Thais and foreigners alike, and the northern part of the beach tends to get busier than the southern part. Weekends and holidays sometimes make it difficult to find accomodation so book early!

From dusk to dawn, visitors can enjoy sunbathing, swimming, jet skiing, windsurfing, riding on a banana boat or even go scuba diving.

Just 30 minutes by boat from the coast of Rayong, you will be able to experience the charms of nature that combines the beauty of silver sand with the garden of tropical trees.
