Well accessible beaches on Koh Samet
The main beach on the island of Koh Samet is Haad Sai Kaew, located next to the capital of the island of Phe. If you want a little more peace, go straight to the adjacent beach of Ao Hin Khok. It is followed by Ao Phai, which seems to be closing a large bay near the capital
Sculptures over the beach
Above the rocks that separate the beaches of Haad Sai Kaew and Hin Khok you will find a small park with interesting statues
Ao Hin Khok
Ao Hin Khok beach is basically divided into two parts. At the east end, from where this view is, is an organized section with sun loungers. The western part is wild and relatively little busy

View of Ao Phai
Ao Hin Khok Beach and Ao Phai are separated by several meters of low cliffs. Ao Phai closes the bay and is the last beach accessible from the island's capital within a few minutes walk

The eastern end of Ao Phai beach is probably the only quieter place on this beach
The busy part of Ao Phai
However, the western end of the beach is very busy, thanks to the resort by the beach, so this part did not appeal to me. You can continue along the path along the coast to other bays
