Koh Samet is a national park, althought  the beach strip is nicely maintained a short walk inland reveals  a huge garbage dump. Koh Samed 217.jpg (39883 bytes)

We found someone to rent us their catamaran  and had a most enjoyable sail on the warm waters of the Gulf of Thailand.  For a couple who did most of their dinghy sailing on the Irish Sea, this was  a real treat. Koh Samed 225.jpg (39756 bytes)
