零八二月泰國沙美島 Koh Samet in Feb, 08
Things to Do
|
A ideal island
for relaxation
What attracts
Thai and foreign visitors to come back to Samet is, a little
ironically, because there is no larger commercial tourist attractions.
Some of the whitest beaches in Thailand, together with a finite amount
of roads and traffic, makes the island ideal for visitors who enjoy
laying in a hammock or relaxing on the beach.
A rather
limited nightlife
The island was
classified as a National Park in 1981 and has a limited nightlife
scene, but it's not non-existent. A few cozy bars along Hat Sai Kaow
and Ao Phai beaches offer some party, especially in the weekends. Thai
middle class tourists often arrives from Bangkok and other
destinations at certain weekdays and holidays. On Koh Samet, you will
not find the kind of nightlife with neon illuminated go go bars etc.
that are common in places like Pattaya and Phuket. |
Water sports and
dining at restaurants
If you get a
little bored or looking for some activities, we would recommend the
water sport activities that are available on the island. Diving and
snorkeling at the coral reef at southern Koh Samet and also boat
trips, fishing and windsurfing are available. The sea also plays a
significant role in the island's cooking culture. Seafood and fish are
often found on the restaurant menus, but also other thai dishes and
international alternatives. |
