Aside from the scooter mishap, I had a blast in Koh Samet. A 3 hour drive from Bangkok to Rayon followed by a 45 minute boat ride to the island. It’s a small island filled with small beach front hotels and restaurants. The southern part of the island is more a resort area that is secluded from the public. On the north east side of the island - in between the villages of Hat Sai Kaew and Laem Yai - is where you’ll find the ocean front beach parties that begin at sundown. There’s a plethora of restaurants and bars that are lined up on that coast line. Relaxing during the day with tons of kids playing in the beach to a Raging Party scene at night.
