Hugely popular mainly due to it's nearness to BKK. Easily accessible via ferry from Ban Phe which is about 2.5 hours drive from BKK. Lots of restaurants, hotels and beaches. Also lots of litter, dogs and overcharging. This is ok for a few days but if you want pristine clean beaches you need to travel rather further or further out...

Excellent beach away from all the huddle and bustle of the holiday resorts! Just sit back and relax lots of little shops and plenty places to eat
