To say Koh Samet is a beautiful island (see photos of Koh Samet below) would not be an overstatement, getting to Koh Samet is easy and well worth the journey, there is an ugly side to Koh Samet though, but I think you could sum it up by saying Koh Samet is a beauty spot with a few blots on the landscape, rather than a landscape with a few beauty spots, get my drift ?. I wish I’d taken more time taking photos on Koh Samet, the beaches really are beautiful, you soon forget about those blemishes caused by construction work, fly tipping and uncollected trash.
