The experience was very good. The staff were very nice. It was just that the waiting time was too long. In fact, they could pick up guests in batches. They picked us up at 10 am, but we had to jump at 4:30 pm. It would be more appropriate to pick us up at noon. You can plan your time.

On Koh Samet, Thailand, this is a closed beach. So, there are really few people, very clean and quiet. Also, the sand here is so fine! It is really clean and fine, so comfortable!

My first trip to the beach was to Mae Ramphueng Beach. Now that I'm grown up, married, and have children, I'll take them to Mae Ramphueng Beach.

It was very interesting, but it was too hot the day I went. I paid 400 baht for a guided tour at the entrance. In places like this, you really need a guide to truly understand a country. The ticket also allows you to watch the performance.
