I’m going to Thailand for a 10 days of R’n’R just before Chinese New Year and am looking for suggestions where to go.
I’m flying into Bangkok but can travel so thats not a problem.
I’m looking for beaches somewhere quiet(ish), but busy enough to have a night out nearby, somewhere to play football on the beaches, bit of swimming/watersports, not concerned about diving, that’s pretty much it really.
I have used the search function but didn’t find anything useful.
On Koh Samet the beaches get progressively quieter as you head toward the south of the island (twenty minutes max on a bike/taxi, or a one-hour walk along the beach over rocks).
We stayed a little further than midway down, which was quiet, cheap and nice, and we could get quieter beaches or bars and football in a short walk or taxi ride either north or south.
