Ko Samet was a bit of a change from the high rise hotels of Pattaya. Low buildings and dusty track roads gave the place a completely different atmosphere.
I spent most of the 2 full days there exploring the middle of the island.
At night the place came alive it was not party central but it was not quiet. I met a group of other travellers and we went out to see a live band both nights. There was loads of Sky lanterns being launched from the beach each night.
Ko Samet was OK but nothing special so I headed down to Ko Chang which I liked a lot more.
Went on a long and hot walk during the day to a waterfall. I felt like I was going to pass out on the way back.
At night there was some big party taking place in a bar opposite to where I was staying so I ended up there until about 3am. The following night I spent the evening talking to some Brits who owned a nearby bar.
The accommodation was great, low cost and cheap huts right in the middle of the main area. We did get a lot of visits off the local monkeys.
