A number of beautiful beaches line the island coast, providing variety and serenity in equal parts. To the south of Ban Han lies Laem Set beach, which has a beautiful coral garden off the coast and unusual rock formations. To catch the sunset, head north of Ban Thong Thanot to Phang Ka beach for a spectacular view.
At Lamai Beach, there is a rock formation colorfully described as "Mama and Papa Rocks," referring to their anatomical likeness to their names. It is located between Ban Hua Thanon and Ban Lamai, the busiest beaches on Koh Samui
