BEACH
The southern part of Sam Roi Yot Beach is separated from the main beach by a river. It is a beautiful, quiet bay with wonderful views of the small offshore islands, a world away from the busier main beach of Sam Roi Yot. Welcome to paradise!
The beach has a peaceful and unspoiled atmosphere, with soft sand, calm water and lush vegetation along the coastline. At low tide, the sea retreats and rocky patches appear, so be sure to bring water shoes if you want to swim.
Most visitors never make it to this secluded bay because you have to cross the river and drive around the old golf course to get there. This makes it a great place if you are looking for peace, nature and a beach away from the crowds.
WHERE TO STAY
There are three stays at this secret beach. Two are in the upper price range: Brassiere and Hansar. Brassiere has a unique character, with each room individually designed. Depending on your taste, you may find it enchanting or perhaps a little over the top. Hansar has a beautiful infinity pool and offers a more upscale overall experience. We especially loved the food!
At the far end of the bay, you will find the more basic Hua Koa Resort.
The location is amazing, although both of the upper-range stays could use some maintenance. Both have their own restaurants.
There are two roads leading from Sam Roi Yot Beach to this secret beach. The road that takes you directly to the stays is about 5 kilometers long, including around 3 kilometers on an unpaved road. Navigation apps will normally direct you along this route.
When traveling by scooter, however, we usually take the other road, which is paved with concrete and leads to the beach rather than directly to the stays. Enter “Beach in front of Nom Sao Island” in your navigation app. This road is in better condition, but you will have to park your scooter or car in a rather deserted spot and walk the last 100 meters along the beach to reach the stays.
If you are looking for more choice for food and drinks, you will find several restaurants around the center of Sam Roi Yot Beach.
